BigXthaPlug has run into some legal problems in his home state, as he was arrested in Arlington, Texas for marijuana possession.
On Wednesday (February 26), the Dallas rapper was arrested in Arlington, Texas. TMZconfirmed that the Take Care artist was pulled over just after midnight for driving with expired tags.

The officer claimed he could smell marijuana and asked BigX and the passenger, Cleodist Landum, to get out of the car. The passenger shares a last name with the rap star, born Xavier Landum, but the relationship between the two was unclear as of this writing.
Police claimed to have found, per TMZ, “cigarettes and a leafy green substance” in the car, as well as a gun.

Earlier this month, BigXthaPlug’s career took a big step forward when it was announced he would be a supporting act on Lil Baby‘s extended world tour to support his latest album WHAM.
The Atlanta rapper announced the dates on Tuesday (February 18). Tour begins on June 3 in Houston, and the domestic dates continue through July 1. Then things pick back up again with European shows in September, and Australian concerts the following month.

BigXthaPlug will be appearing at all U.S. dates except Los Angeles, and all Australian shows. NLE Choppa will be at all U.S. shows except for Miami. Loe Shimmy will be performing at all U.S. shows.
WHAM got a less-than-stellar reception last month from Lil Wayne‘s son Neal.
Speaking on a livestream, the 15-year-old (whose mother is R&B singer Nivea) made it clear he was not impressed with Baby’s latest effort.
“‘You and Baby should do a music video’?” he said, reading aloud a comment from one of his followers. “You gotta be out your goddamn mind. That n-gga dropped a terrible album. I’m not making a music video with him.”

He added: “Lil Baby’s not even butt, bruh. It’s just that album was terrible.”
