Playboi Carti is one of the most hyped up rappers in hip hop right now.
The 23 year old rapper from Riverdale, Georgia has had multiple chart topping hits with the
most notable being “Magnolia” which peaked at number 29 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart
and even has over 110,000,000 views on YouTube at the time of this recording.
Playboi Carti’s upcoming album “Whole Lotta Red” has also become one of the most
anticipated albums in hip hop right now, which has had Carti fans eagerly waiting for the
album's release since August of 2018.
But despite having all of this success at such a young age, Playboi Carti has still
found himself getting in trouble with the law, with his most recent arrest happening
just a few days ago on April 2, 2020.
Curious on what other kind of legal trouble Playboi Carti has gotten himself into?
Well then we got you covered.
Here is an exclusive inside look at The Criminal History of Playboi Carti.
Playboi Carti grew up in a small suburb outside of Atlanta, Georgia called Riverdale.
Growing up, Carti claims that he always did what he wanted and that no one could tell
him anything.
He played a lot of basketball, but after falling in love with making music, this slowly started
to change.
Playboi Carti went on to make several records under the name “Sir Cartier”, but later
changed it to Playboi Carti a few years later.
He had some local buzz, but it wasn’t until Carti dropped songs like “Broke Boi” and
“Fetti” that his career really started to take off.
Playboi Carti is now one of the leaders of the new era of hip hop and has released massive
songs such as “Magnolia” and “wokeuplikethis” with Lil Uzi Vert.
It is unclear if Playboi Carti ever got arrested prior to fame, but even if he did, those records
would be sealed anyways since he was a juvenile at the time.
Playboi Carti’s first major arrest took place back in July of 2017.
While attempting to exit a terminal at LAX late one night, he told his girlfriend at
the time to call her mother to check in.
Carti’s girlfriend refused to do so which ended up turning into an argument between
the two.
Carti then tried to snatch the phone out of her hand and grabbed her by her backpack to
pull her out of the terminal.
The girl then proceeded to slap Playboi Carti in the face, which caused people nearby to
call the police.
Multiple officers arrived at the scene moments later and saw no physical injuries on either
of them but still ended up arresting Playboi Carti for misdemeanor domestic battery.
He ended up spending the night in jail before posting a $20,000 bond the next day.
It’s unknown how this case played out for Playboi Carti, but I assume it was either
dropped or he had to pay a fine.
This next incident isn’t an arrest but something worth mentioning in this type of video.
Back in February of 2018, Playboi Carti was in Scotland for his European tour.
For this three week tour, Carti rented a tour bus which included two drivers.
Well apparently, Carti got into an argument with one of the drivers while on the tour.
The other driver claimed that during the argument he saw a bunch of things get thrown around
the tour bus and even witnessed Playboi Carti punch the driver in the face, which ended
up cutting him and even knocked his glasses off.
Two of Carti’s tour managers claim he was just acting in self-defence.
Regardless, Carti was later due into court, where he claimed that he didn’t assault
the driver but admitted to causing damage to the tour bus.
Carti was ultimately convicted and was fined a total of £800 or $1,030.
£500 for the assault and £300 for the damage done to the tour bus.
It was also rumored that Playboi Carti was banned from the United Kingdom for this situation
but I don’t believe that to be true based on my research.
Playboi Carti’s latest arrest happened just a few days ago on April 2, 2020.
While driving around Clayton County with his friend Jaylen Tucker, a police officer pulled
over Carti’s black Lamborghini for expired tags.
When the officer approached Carti’s vehicle, he smelled marijuana which prompted him to
ask Carti to step out of the vehicle.
After stepping out, Carti apparently was being extremely disrespectful to the officer while
he searched the vehicle.
During the search, the officer found a plethora of drugs such as marijuana, xanax, codeine,
oxycodone, and even found two handguns.
Playboi Carti was then soon handcuffed and put in the back of the police cruiser but
not without a little trash talking first.
According to the officer, Carti was shouting that he was gonna f*** his daughter and that
he didn’t care about his lamborghini cause he can just buy another one.
Carti was then taken to jail shortly after and booked on 3 charges, possession of less
than an ounce of marijuana, expired tags, and failure to move over.
His friend Jaylen Tucker took all the serious charges for everything else found in the car.
Playboi Carti was released on bond later that day and Jaylen Tucker was eventually bonded
out early morning the following day.
Carti has since continued living life like none of this even happened and even released
a new single titled “@ MEH” which has since gone incredibly viral.
Hopefully this is the last time Playboi Carti is arrested.
