Rappin' 4-Tay Arrested

Bay area rapper and 2Pac collaborator Rappin' 4-Tay was arrested for burglary last month and is still being held in jail since no one has been able to post his $112,000 bail. He was arrested on the first-degree burglary for allegedly boosted items from a commercial building, according to TMZ. 4-Tay hasn’t been able to come up with the money to secure his release, and that has kept him in jail for a little less than a month. Authorities also discovered two outstanding warrants when they arrested him in September.

Rappin’ 4-Tay hit the rap scene back in the early 1990s and even appeared on 2Pac’s “Only God Can Judge Me” off his album “All Eyez On Me.” He’s also collaborated with other deceased legends like Mac Dre. He made headlines about two years back when he accused Drake of stealing parts of his verse from his 1994 hit “Playaz Club” and using them in YG’s “Who Do You Love.” 4-Tay was able to squeeze $100,000 out of Drake’s camp for the use of the lyrics.
