Ja Rule And Lil Wayne ARRESTED In New York City

: MediaTakeOut.com has learned that New York Police arrested rappers Ja Rule and Lil Wayne in separate incidents last night. Both face similar charges of criminal possession of a firearm.

It all started around 10:30 last night when officers pulled over a speeding luxury car that was carrying Ja Rule, whose real name is Jeff Atkins, and two other men. According to police who conducted the search, they found a .40-caliber pistol in the vehicle.

And just a few hours later, in another incident, rapper Lil Wayne was arrested. Police claim they saw Wayne and another man smoking marijuana. And, according to the arresting officer, when they searched Lil Wayne, whose real name is Dwayne Carter, they found that he was carrying a .40-caliber pistol.

this is a publicity stunt for Ja Rule. he needs his fanbase back so he's actin hard with a .40 cal


Twindees

Ja was just trying to get some attention and here it is. Lil Wayne we know he was smoking.


2hott

@quelinda456: Club Avalon


blackdaddy1696

I dont know why rappers still pa-lay in the NY. If I was a hip hop star as soon as I get rich I will relocate somewhere else.


sheman

@2hott: Gurl i feel you on that one, but did you notice all dem little kids last night i thought it was 21 and older


ro_99

chocolatemocha

Man all you got to do is register a gun ... Going to jail for not registering your gun is stupid and all entertainers do the same thing ... become a felon over an unregistered gun ([Shaking my Head])

dherman716

Street cred for this dynamic duo. Finally!


djenx

NOWDAYS IT HARD TO FIND SOMEONE WHO ISNT CARRYING SOMETHING


Inormallydontdothis

See, now this is why Lil Wayne has a long way to go to be the Best Rappe Alive. Not only do you have to be a great artist, but you also have to be a smart business person. This is not something that a smart business man/woman would do. All you have to do is get a permit. How hard is that?? Stupid!!!!


2hott

@sheman:

You telling me with all them cops that was out there they didn't have a fashion police to chase them BIRDS home


RobRight

"Plus the cal is on me..."

I don't know why anyone is shocked by this.

@Idontnormallydothis: At least he didn't stab anyone like Jay did.


mungin26

Lil Wayne should be locked up for those white pasty lips.


bew-t

They look like 2 littlle mice in that pic above -haha!!

Inormallydontdothis

RobRight I knew he charge with something, but I did not know exactly what. That is kinda "gay". What happen to "don't bring a knife to a gun fight"? Didn't he say that?


HauteCoutureDiva

Hold up. Ja hasn't put out a hit since 50 came out and he has the audacity to get arrested??? It's MURDERRRRRRRR!!!!


incredible

I hope Baby doesn't visit Wayne (in jail) and try to kiss him through the cell bars.

That'd be wrong on so many levels (pun intended)


younghaitiandude

damn everybody is getting arrested.


princecharming107

When will these people learn. We know they are going to post bond and plead no contest, moving on! Leave the guns to the security team and that is why you pay them. What is up with new york these days! Remy Ma, Ja, lil wayne! You cant go out anymore,lol

Riddle me dis Batman?? How da hell does the 2 littlest mah fu**kas in Hip Hop get into the most trouble? Sh*t, they might be 6 feet tall with one standin on the other's shoulders..


MDL219

It is not easy to get a gun lisence. First of all you can not be a felon, which knocks out most rappers. Why do you think people like fifty have body gaurds that are ex police or police. It has nothing to do with being a snitch or working with the police. You see he is never pulled over for anything. None of listen to Pappose. He told yall if you ain't got no felonies get your gun license. I am a female and a I am proud card carrying member of the NRA and I have a pistol license.


strongblackwoman

2hott Did you notice how the groupies were fighting to get in vip


quelinda456

@2hott and sheman...Avalon is 18 and over, and in this city whenever a party is 18 and over expect to see chicks in baseball caps sneakers. I was out last weekend and this weekend and was blown away by the amount of chicks who wear flip flops to trendy upscale clubs. So I guess there is no getting away from that. Sorry a little off topic but whatever.


2hott

sheman:VIP LMAO, you call that V.I.P, It was only FAT half naked woman who thought they were auditioning for a video and a bunch of broke men who were all were wearing WHITE TEES looking like they had on school uniform. It was about 20 dudes sharing a bottle of moet cmon


2hott

quelinda456: Last night it was suppose to be 21 and over B/c my cousin tried to get in she is 20. I dont understand how can a woman wear flip flops to a club with them DIRTY CRUSTY feet. They had on there best $10 shirts they should of found some $10 pumps dam, i would still talk bout they asses

You will never run this rap game but for so long, you will never achieve Jigga's success and the only parts of NYC you will see is outta Big Albert's cell in the precinct!!!!

Bella

PUBLICITY STUNT!!

We haven't heard anything from Ja Rule in years. Now all of a sudden he's drawing attention to himself and getting arrested before his album comes out?!?!?

And isn't he working on music with Lil' Wayne too?!?! Why would he be standing out in the street smoking weed unless he WANTED to get caught.

They need to stop insulting us with this kind of stuff. Their music should speak for itself!


Inormallydontdothis

I know BklynRogue: "Like a moth to a flame right??"


jane

I HEARD THAT RAPPERS DO BE PURPOSELY GETTING IN THE POLICE WAY WHEN THEY DROP A NEW JOINT., THIS MAY BE THE CASE HERE, I MEAN THEY CANT REGISTER a gun cause most of them have felonies, or on probation for priors, LORD!!! OUR YOUNG black men.. you cant put money and fame in anybodies hand. now days rappers just stay in the spot light, always arrested for some stupid crap.. and the reason that most of them be carrying guns is because they been treatened by some one. we only know what we see in the media


g1am0r0us141

publicity stunt?

ja rule yea

lil wayne hell no lil wayne is HOT right now


QueenOfNewYork

I see why our black youth are so messed up. These are the people that many of our Black youth look up to. This rap crap is a pollutant and destroying our community with its negative lyrics that are demeaning especially to the Black people.

Take what Diana Ross said when she accepted an award recently. You can still have longevity in a career without calling someone Bitches and Hoes and might I add, smoking marijuana in public! Dumb asses!


BklynRogue

Indeed @ Inormally....and my love is blind can't you see my desire lol

QueenofNY I love hip hop music, I grew up around it, I was raised on it, but best believe this ish out here now is not rap. It's a trashy impostor of rap, and please better us not listenin to that annoying as Grundge, heavy metal music that them white children listen to then go shooting up malls and schools and shyt. You can't name one mass black murder that was triggered because of a Jay-Z or Lil Kim record now could ya?

And even though Diana is right, she has no business critiquing someone. Hell she's worse than Puffy, her ass slept with all her managers and bosses to get to the top, so I know her puzzy must be platinum like her records!


brownbetty32

OH...LAWD...ITS A CONSPIRACY...SOMEBODY CALL THE GOVERNER...WE GOTS TO GET MY BABY DADDY OUT THE PIN....

HOLD ON WEEZY....I'M COMING BABY!!!!!!!!!!!


BklynRogue

And Baby is coming with you betty!


HauteCoutureDiva

Aw damn!!!! ROTFL and CRYING at:

TheTRUTH555,Dubya,Sasahstjames and Truebahamian. I am gonna get fired for laughing SOOOOO LOUD!!!!


strongblackwoman

ROTFLMAO AT BKLYNROGUE..... AT THE DIANA COMMENT

don't really understand the weezy bashing, dude is good at what he do I can care less who he trying to be like, dude got skills and what this hiphop generation is lacking which is actual talent.... its like thats the only thing yal got on him so what he wants to be like jigga, which I highly doubt It was just admiration, so what he does this and that, DUDE GOT SKILLS THATS ALL THAT MATTER! LOL....

damn C I swear you might need to talk to someone about this bey and jay obsessio... its like you bash any and everything that comes at these two lol.. its abnormal dude! but you still my dogg lol...


TheTRUTH555

No need to worry y'all. JaRule will be just fine. He'll probably just sing a romantic love song to the cops and hand them a rose. I'm sure he'll just get off with a slap in the @ss, I mean wrist.


MrsWayne

I feel you earingchick! Wayne does not need to do a publicity stunt in order to boost JaRule's career, just by letting him on his latest track is enough! My boo dont give a [EXPLETIVE], he can carry a weapon and smoke weed if he wants to, sure he might get locked up...But can you imagine how many times he's been caught and without being arrested. He gets high! That's what he does! Thats who he is! All the great ones are fellons, what else is new...at least he aint out here killing nobody. Everybody done smoked a lil weed, you could've got caught too. As for JaRule....That man just tryna do whateva he can to get his name back out there. And to all you [EXPLETIVE] cat Cater haters...get mad we gone get MONEY! That's YOUNG MONEY ya dig! Mrs.WEEEZZZY!


DreDog

2Hott LMAOOOOO!!! You keepz me rollin!

Can anyone tell me what da hell is on Lil' Wayne's face? He looked like that heroin addict broad that had them sores on her face in that mini-series "The Corner". YUCK!


Savy_Da_Boss

Whooooo thank y'all. This thread is funny as hell. Nice return from lunch.


QueenOfNewYork

@BklynRogue...I'm not a huge Diana Ross fan either. However, her message was clear and correct. I agree she did sleep her way to the top. I'm not sure with any women like Puffy who I'm sure has slept with many men.

Lil Kim is purely FAKE. I loved her when she kept sh*t real. She's gone too Hollywood now. Just fake, fake......

Jay-Z I simply adore and can't say one bad thing about him.


ballergamedown

dont believe this cuz Wayne got arrested at a N.O block party the other night


EReal

Look like Stuart Little 1 & 2, and quit with that mustache already JaBlew, you look like a gay pron star, but you prolly are on the d/l I had a better stache in 8th grade homie, lmao!

Murda, I dont believe you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


strongblackwoman

lol at C I had to pick on ya! Diana Ross look better than all her children lol... especially the girls....


TRUEDAT

THE TRUTH !!!

I was at the il Wayne show last night at Beacon theatre of 72nd street. Wayne took 2 hours to come on stage. When he did he stated that this was his last show in NYC because of how thw cops were treating him since he arrived. Ja rule was one of his special guests. They did Uh Oh- Kanye and Juelz was there too. When I was on my way home- I saw that their tour bus was pulled over by about 60th street. It wasnt a regular NYPD car. It was like a special kind of jeep, kinda indicating some type of special police squad "hip hop police" maybe. Wayne was real humble at the show- He thanked his fans at least 5 times saying he was nuthin without them. Me reading the paper hearing of the arrest really bothered me. Especially since he spoke out about them harrassing him before the show. Our artists and culture is being attacked. They know these stars need to protect themselves; so they go after them instead of the real criminals.


foxyloxy2000

i smell a conspiracy folks! ja rule has an album dropping soon and weezy just put out another mixtape! hmmmmmmm


alawson

If LiL Wayne lives to be an old man he's gonna look like a fool..

Can you imagine what the CNA's at the old folks home is gonna think whe they have to come in and change him...

Cause lets face it, alot of the black entertainers make millions of dollars when they are young but most of them die broke...

Isn't that sad.


drburke

Wayne always did look a little off the cuff in the mental department. And Ja has nothing to do since he stopped trying to be TuPac.


miamiblack

lil wayne fine


lovelione

C'mon now... u guys are really setting a bad example for our youths. especially our young black males... our homes are broken, and will continue to be broken for generations to come. and Y is this news? this is B.S !!

we need help...... seriously


MONIQUEP

HOW IS IT THAT THEY BOTH HAVE THE SAME GUN??? LET ME GOOGLE THIS CUZ I DIDNT HEAR NOTHING ABOUT THIS ON THE RADIO AND THEY USUALLY ON POINT WITH MUSIC NEWS

MYSPACE.COM/POODIE_N_ILLA


ColdAssChic

LIL wayne shoulda been carrying a light saber like in star wars to kill some of his alien family members- he is a TROLL, GARGOYLE and ALIEN all in one...whats with the shaven upper lip....spells - 'how you doin' to me...and ja rule...well he needs to return to the kingdom hall and get back with jehovah!


RAINBOWBRIGHT

FREE WEEZY! I love him he can do whatever he wants!


pinkpradashoes

HauteCoutureDiva

EXACTLY!


kia16

MAN WHO CARES ABOUT JA RULE???

LIL WAYNE SEXY AZZ...DAMN!!!


mzarrogance

please! you cannot blame this generation on rap music! you can blame the actions of this generation on the last generation b/c those are the parents. and parents are the first, and should be only, role models. the people blaming the entertainers are the people whose children are locked up, will be, or are the problem children in their class. and some of you fit into that category. people always want to point the finger when, in reality there are a bunch of sorry ass parents who want the schools and tv to raise their children. a responsible parent teaches their children that what they see on tv is ENTERTAINMENT. a responsible parent teaches their kids right from wrong, and accept the responsibility for the actions of their children. U have to give your child foundation, not rappers and ballers.


trinigirly

i was wonderin y they dont just license the freakin guns but they probably got criminal records...


cremesaver

lil wayne fine? sexy? dwlll i respect the matter of opinion believe me .. but some a yall need to get out more FYI MTO get a chatroom going puhleaseeeeeeeeeee!!!! dont tell me u cant see where its needed!!! and while u at it work on some cookies for the ppl who keep screaming "first"


kareem200

the only thing ja rule ever bust was a pimple, and lil wayne's cheddar bob azz shot himself in the chest when he was younger, i guess he's tryna sharpen his skills.
