In the early hours of Saturday morning, police arrested rapper Blueface on several charges, the major one being possession of a concealed firearm in a vehicle. Police sources told TMZ that the rapper was driving with a few people at around 3.15 a.m. The rapper, who name is Johnathan Jamall Porter, was stopped by the police at the intersection of Sunset and Vine, the heart of Hollywood.

He was initially pulled over by the cops for driving a car with an expired registration. As they ran a computer check, they found that his license had been suspended. They asked him to exit from the vehicle. As they searched the vehicle, they found a concealed firearm in the vehicle.

Blueface was then arrested. However, the others in the car were not arrested. The gun was loaded and unregistered and found in the center console of the vehicle. This is a felony charge and the rapper could face up to three years in prison.

The 25-year old rapper, popular for his hit track Thotiana, has been in trouble before. Last November, in an incident in San Fernando Valley he was responsible for beating up a nightclub bouncer. The incident was caught on camera.

The rapper and three other people with him kicked and punched the doorman so badly that he needed stitches. They were charged with two felonies, one of which was for assault and the other was for robbery.

Two months later, Blueface and his manager Wack100 asked the police to come to their home to remove Chrisean Rock from the premises, after Rock and Wack were arguing on issues including whether she belonged in the house and whether he was her manager.

In December 2020, Rock had signed with Blueface records. In the preceding months, she had starred in the reality show by Blueface called Blue Girls Club.

The talented rapper is not new to controversy but Blueface’s latest arrest might have far reaching consequences including a prison term, which he has avoided so far; as he has been caught possessing a loaded, unregistered firearm.
