TSA officials allegedly found codeine in one of the Def Jam Recordings artist’s checked bags at Los Angeles International Airport on April 4th.

The charge against the Atlanta rapper is tied to his June 2013 arrest at Los Angeles International Airport for alleged codeine possession.

In June, it was reported that when he was apprehended, 2 Chainz had under an ounce of marijuana and was also in possession of codeine, one of the main ingredients in sizzurp.
