The police don’t care who you are! As news circulated about Joey Bada$$ and Ab-Soul’s arrest, so did a video. Joey laughed like a hyena as he was unaware of why he was in handcuffs. Apparently, so were the officers.
Statik Selektah – along for The Smoker’s Club ride told Hip-Hop DX that the police were simply being dick-heads. “The cops felt dumb as f**k after they realized they were fucking up. [It was] basically profiling gone wrong. They saw the tour bus, passports, etcetera,” says Statik. The two weren’t charged with anything and let go.

“No one is in jail,” announces the DJ. “The cops were profiling because Joey and Ab were walking through the hotel parking lot to the bus. I was inside the hotel working when it happened, but by the time I came out, the cops were gone and the hotel security told me how it was bullshit.”
