We reported earlier that rapper 2 Chainz was arrested in New York City for allegedly having brass knuckles at the airport. The rapper called into  MTV News to complain about the incident and said that the police tried to “assassinate his swag”. He said,

“They tried to assassinate my character, they tried to assassinate my swag.  It was just a negative dilemma earlier where someone misconstrued a piece of jewelry for a weapon and stuff.  Me just trying to explain it was getting too frustrating, me just trying to explain my occupation and then when they finally got to the jail and everybody knew who I was, then they started calling their kids and putting me on the phone with their kids. It was like a weird experience.”

He took to his Twitter page to address his fans tweeting,  “Sorry to alll the negative people who wanted me out the way…kant let u have the game bak that ez….And oh yeh they took my Louis V. traveling case… Smh! Petty I got that from Saudi Arabia…Materials kan b replaced!2blessed2stress. A RING THOUGH!!!”
