His arrest in Oklahoma City after a 2013 traffic stop resulted in more national notoriety for rapper 2 Chainz, who later apologized on MTV and vowed to go “cold turkey on all criminal activities.”
The rapper — whose real name is Tauheed Epps — pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor, obstructing a police officer in the performance of his official duties. He paid a fine, a victims’ compensation assessment and other costs totaling $771, records show.
No one was charged with marijuana possession even though police reported finding marijuana residue during the bus search.
“In the end, we didn’t find much of it,” a prosecutor said in December 2013. “What we did find wasn’t in any location where we could show knowledge on anyone’s part.”
