The jailhouse door never stops revolving for Hip Hop’s drug culture. Two weeks ago, rap artist Waka Flocka was busted in Queens, NY on drug possession charges. Then last week, emerging rap star Big Sean was arrested for an alleged sexual assault. The latest Hip Hop star to catch a federal drug charge is Big Boi, one half of the Grammy award winning duo Outkast.
Antwan “Big Boi” Patton was arrested in Miami this afternoon on drug possession charges as he exited a cruise ship.
Reportedly, passengers had complained about the sweet aroma of chronic filling the air outside the rooms of the entourage that traveled with Patton and his family. So when the cruise ship arrived back at the port of Miami, drug sniffing dogs were waiting for them.
According to published reports, Patton was charged with three felony counts of possession of Ecstasy pills, MDMA powder (the main ingredient of Ecstasy), Viagra pills, for which he did not have a prescription, and drug paraphernalia.
Patton, 36, was booked into the Pre-Trial Detention Center in Miami earlier today where he was held on $16,000 bail. He posted bail this afternoon, before tweeting, “Fresh Out Baby!”
“While Big Boi was traveling with his group and friends, a small amount of contraband was found in the collective luggage,” the rapper’s attorney Daniel Kane said in a statement. “I am confident when the entire facts are aired Big Boi will be completely exonerated.”
Sandraose.com was the first blog to report about the latest Hip Hop drug of choice: Viagra. Some rappers take Viagra for erectile dysfunction, while other rappers crush the tablets and either snort or mix the powder with other drugs to get high.
We’re not sure which category Big Boi falls into.
Patton lives in Atlanta with his wife, Sherlita Patton, their daughter Jordan, son Cross, and another son named Bamboo by another woman.

smdh… he looks mad as fvck in that mugshot though
That’s dumb! just get a prescription for viagra. Dang plenty of doctors will write you a script. As for chronic…that should be legal and taxed. And individuals should be allow to grow a certain amount for their own use.
What is MDMA powder? I don’t even like taking my blood pressure medicine let alone chit you have to pay for…
I’m trying to figure that out my damn self. From what I can tell it’s one of the drugs in ecstasy but since it’s listed separately as a powder so maybe he crushed a pill or something
@ Dawn Sheen and Ms. Everything:
Yes, MDMA powder is from a crushed Ecstasy pill. They also crush Viagra pills.
If a woman takes viagra… what happens to her special place?
Dayum Big Boi.
This is and always will be my dude right here
…can’t get more southernplayalistic than Big Boi. 
I’m sure it was all for personal use, not distribution because the bail was set ultra low.
Yet it bothers me something awful that the men depending on Viagra are getting younger and younger.

Hey Dawn
Not a damn thing to my knowledge; for if it did, we would most certainly take over the world.
waymin…his sons name is bamboo??
Thanks Sandra! @KayCei Viagra has alot of side effects that these men aren’t even considering plus since they don’t have rx they probably aren’t taking it right smh
Hay Hay Hay *Roger from What Happening now voice
Is this MDMA the new cocaine of the 2012?

I don’t stans for any other artist from Atlanta EXCEPT Outkast… YES his sons name is Bamboo… u got a problem???
He talked abt Bamboo in one of his songs(think Bombs over Bahgdad) but I always thought it was a nickname
LOL! not really. im from the Midwest so I have no ATL allegiances!! Bamboo Patton…
I would dare to guess he chose that name because Bamboo wood is difficult or impossible to break? Just like Anddre son Seven which is a number that can’t be divided… ION know… I just crushed up some flintstone vitamens… trying to see wht buzz I can get w/ these vitiman C pills… I can’t explain why ppl name they kids Shameka or Deljunda so go figure…

But i guess celebrity kids dont have to worry about big terry on the playground beating them up bc they have a ‘weird’ name…
LOL…I recognize the Carnival Cruise Line card key hanging around his neck on the first picture…I’m sure they don’t appreciate this kind of publicity!!…Also BIG BOI was treated like a celebrity because when they were alerted of the chronic smell..they are suppose to call the local authorities at the closest port…so if BIG BOI was out of the country clowning like that ..which I’m sure he was…he better be thankful they allowed him to SMOKE the whole trip and arrrested him on USA soil…The folks responsible for taking care of his cabin was TIPPED ($$$) big time…unfortunately may lose their jobs after the investigation.
I know one thing…on Royal Carribean, the dranks (yes I said dranks) were so on point I couldn’t find my room. I’on think I needed to get too much higher considering I was so twisted that I also got stuck at the top of the rock climbing wall.
Smoking, dranking, AND double p-poppin’?!?! I wonder if he remembers anything, and how long it took for his peen to go back to normal.
We used to put vicks in tea growning up times have changed…I wonder if I cruch up sum viagra if my sweet pea will harden it will look like a tiny light bulb I will blame it on daddy fat sacks and his arrest on amistad
So his wife and kid were with him when he got arrested?
sooooo THIS COON thinks it is funny because you got popped with WEX (weed and X) while you on VACAY with the fam… real BALLERS (aka Puffy) don’t roll on cruiseships … .LOL ….niggerdom at it’s finest LEAST UNCLE SNOOP GOT A PRESCRIPTION i see why Outkast broke up EVIDENTLY SIR LUCIOUS is still immature …..
i hear that dudes are crushing and sniffing Viagra to get high WTF??? the human need to escape reality never ceases to amaze me….
Now crushing a Goodys headache power… I may crush sum shower to shower so that I feel so fresh n so clean….
*powder
Y’all right I do need help…
Morning SR Fam!
Needing another 3 day weekend soon
HE LOOKS PISSD IN THEM MUG SHOT!
AND HIS TWEETS
HE GOOOONE!!
I will not say ANYTHING bad about any members of Outkast
That’s still my dude, tho.
“Ain’t nobody told yall light skin dudes ain’t in style no mo?” – ATL
@MIRSM MOORNING
FOR SOME REAASON ANDRE 3000 ALWAYS MADE ME HOT!!
IDK HE SESAY TO A BISH!!
Did he call his lil big brother to get out of jail. Rappers and drugs nothing new.
Did he call his lil big brother to get out of jail :lolol:
I still
the hell outta Big Boi. I mean love like I wouldn’t mind just being a stick and move…don’t know what it is about him…
Nope nothing bad to be said about OutKast ESPECIALLY if you are from Atlanta.
I will be composing a list of things to crush…
Rappers can afford lawyers, most black men cannot afford this luxury and that’s why the jails are full. Dang Big Boi, I’m sure the sex was good but was it worth it. Next time, rent the whole dang boat. He does a lot of great things for the community, this incident might hurt him politically-now he has to do a PSA blah blah blah. I’m not against adults indulging in a little fun but an outcome like this is hard to explain to teenage boys like my son who think it’s ok to get high because their idols do it.
GM SR FAM!
we need a
im bored 
I don’t really see the big deal.
Was the wife on the cruise too. Maybe they were popping X and Viagra to get things jumping. Who knows and who cares.
Morn-ting SR Fam!!!!

GM SR FAM!
@ Big Boi and this dumb arse decision. I still have nothing bad to say about him BECAUSE I FUGGING Outkast….especially Andre!

I will fight u butt naked in my SR BABY tEE in Jello pudding over 3000
Well Sherlita looks like she ain’t complaining in that pic you posted. As long as she was with him on the cruise I soooo ain’t mad. Work it out yall!
BUT old boy gots to do better than that. Ditch that sh*t before you leave the boat. If you and wifey want to set it off at home you’re just going to have to settle for what you can get in the US. And from what I heard that pure MDMA makes the wee wee go limp so maybe have Sherlita strip for you to set if off next time so you won’t need the V. But yeah, on vacay anything goes.
On another site they reported this as saying “Daddy Fat Sacks” got caught with X. :ROFL:
I couldn’t stop laughing at the reference to daddy fat sacks. LOL
@DAWN I GOT U FOR 300 HE GOT THAT SWAG
@ Dawn…..

Heyyyyy Lakes

I can neither confirm or deny that statement. I can confirm the following:
1. I wanna watch crush groove
2. I like crushed pineapples
3. If you crush viagra and a candy cane you get sweet meat
I would like to point out we respect the hell out of OutKast see how Sandra didn’t use her standard “Dumb Rapper” header… He could have gotten caught with crushed velvet and I would still patiently await a new Kast album.

I party just as hard.. I am cheap.. if u can’t get it up.. you can’t come…
Nice. Great example to your own kids Big Boi. Though society likes to give celebs passes for committing crimes we’d all come down hard on the average Joe for, you can always count on some kid to haze the schit out of celeb kids for the dumb things their parents did. Remember, kids say the darnedest things.
He’s trying to make light of his situation and offset people clowning his ass on the internet. I get it.
Some rappers take Viagra for erectile dysfunction

———————————————
Too much groupie lovin in those early years
I am still wondering why this fool was on a Carnival Cruise??? he went to the worst cruise line ever to get busted on. The only reason he needed to be on Carnival if it was a paid function. Common son, next time Royal caribbean where they dont snitch

I am not surprised at all!!! I mean just because he is a successful rapper doesn’t mean he doesn’t have fool in his blood stream because what he got arrested for is a damn fool move!!! Like who takes anything illegal on any type of traveling outing unless you just don’t give a F**K! All I gotta say is, I hate to say it but they should’ve never gave this N***A no money!
I
you Big Boi.
Uhh… Sherlita – get your mans Sis.
He doin’ too much in too many places.
Oncst again, I
you Big Boi.
@KayCeiSoul is that Rasheeda in your gravi?

I reported how he was looking good on that ship and having a good time but I didn’t know how HIGH of a good time he was having.
Now Gipp is cursing ppl on twitta. LOL That crew, they take the HAVE YOUR BACK deep. Big Boi and Viagra… that’s so deer in the headlights. Mug Shot look is priceless.
They don’t play on Carnival Cruise Lines…..not the place for it they will have your azz in the bottom of the ship until you get back to the states!!!!!
That is too funny though!!

********************************
Nope. That is The Divine Ms. Anita Baker. Does bear a striking resemblance now that you mention it.
Wow, I feel silly and enlightened at the same time! Now I see Ms. Baker but all I could see originally was Rasheeda “yearbooked”
somewhat disappointed in Big Boi…
