The rapper wrote in his statement:

“To begin when you start changing lives around you and began to stand for something deep in purpose you become a target to a certain group of people and also the devil. During this arrest I was setup, substances were planted on me that I don’t consume/use/own, my name was lied upon, and I was even mistreated in the process. Every media outlet, news channel, and etc covered this story to a paint a picture on a new surface I’ve been working so hard to create. This case will be beat and I will walk a free man, remember it’s innocent until proven guilty not guilty until proven innocent. Asking my reporters to stand firm with me and allow God to do his work. Thank you and love ya’ll dearly”.
