If this is true, dude is a total moron and the name of his upcoming album, King Uncaged, is an oxymoron:
Grammy-winning rapper T.I., who is still on probation after spending time behind bars on gun charges, was arrested along with his wife on drug charges after police smelled alleged marijuana coming from their car, authorities said.The Wednesday night arrests for possession of a controlled substance occurred in West Hollywood during a traffic stop, Los Angeles sheriff's deputy Mark Pope told The Associated Press.
"Deputies smelled a strong odor of marijuana emitting from the vehicle," the department said. "A narcotics investigation ensued" that resulted in the arrests.
The department's media office said it didn't yet have details on which specific drug the possession charge concerned.
Kinda figured T.I. was on a high after Takers (which he starred in and produced) hit No. 1 at the box office last weekend. But, really dude? I mean, damn. He's already on three years probation after serving seven months of fed time in Arkansas and three months in a local halfway house on those gun charges.
Maybe that deal he got was a little too lenient after all.

There are more people in jail for Probation Violation, than any other charge you can think of. The system wins again...

Let's see who gets more time, a talented rapper and actor who smokes a little pot or an heiress debutante who snorts blow.
