In a Facebook post uploaded to his profile a little over a week ago, producer 9th Wonder provided a recap of an encounter he had with a police officer near the South Carolina border following the A3C Hip Hop Festival.

While traveling with fellow artist Rapsody and his assistant, 9th says he was pulled over after a police officer pulled up to the side of his vehicle to possibly get a look inside the car, which he says included a “Harvard Est. 1636” sign around the license plate.

He says the police officer then pulled back behind his vehicle to put on his lights and pull him over.

In his Facebook post, 9th Wonder offered a transcription of the conversation between himself and the officer after he stepped out of the car. A portion of the exchange, according to 9th, can be found below.
