Following a raid at his home, American rapper YG, whose relationship with Khelani ended after he was caught kissing another woman outside a Los Angeles nightclub, has been arrested and charged with robbery.
The Californian rapper was arrested by the police after they conducted a search in his home in the early hours of Friday, January 24. The authorities arrived with a search warrant and an arrest warrant related to a robbery case.
TMZ reported that this is the second raid on his home in less than a year. The police conducted the first search in July 2019 after the rapper’s Escalade was involved in a high-speed chase through L.A. streets, resulting in the death of a pedestrian and injuries to a police officer.
YG, however, maintained that he was nowhere near the robbery scene during the first raid. He stated, “I was nowhere near the scene of this incident and had been in a recording studio all day in Hollywood. I was there until after midnight on the Fourth of July and didn’t learn of these events until after they happened.”
With his arrest, YG may not be part of the Grammy Awards on Sunday, January 26, where he was expected to perform in an all-star tribute to his late collaborator Nipsey Hussle.
