Millyz “Targeted” And Detained By Police For Firearm

Massachusetts rapper Millyz found himself detained by the police in Phoenix over the weekend. The detainment happened following a routine traffic stop. The incident took an unexpected turn when the police discovered a legally owned firearm during the search. This information was confirmed by a member of Millyz’s team. A video capturing the scene quickly spread across social media. It shows approximately six police officers from the removing the rapper from the back of his vehicle.

According to Millyz’s representative, they firmly believe that the rapper and his entourage were specifically targeted. They emphasized that the video footage was not staged or part of any promotional effort. The representative explained that the police had been tailing them for around ten blocks. Then, they eventually stopped and detained them for the presence of a legal firearm. Hours later, they were released without being held overnight. Consequently, there is an absence of a mugshot on the police department’s website.

Millyz Is “Targeted” Yet Again

Millyz’s encounter with law enforcement isn’t the only issue he has faced recently. Back in March, Slim Jxmmi of Rae Sremmurd took aim at the Cambridge rapper. He criticized his rendition of Eminem’s hit song “Stan.” Slim Jxmmi asserted that Rae Sremmurd had a superior version of the track in the works. Millyz, on the other hand, acknowledged Slim Shady’s permission to use the sample on his recent song “Tonight.” The rapper also shared a preview on Instagram. Despite this, Slim Jxmmi dismissed Millyz’s version. He claimed that Rae Sremmurd’s adaptation had more impact. He made sure to note that they, too, had received clearance for the sample.

In the comments section of Akademiks’ Instagram post, Slim Jxmmi further asserted that Millyz’s inspiration for using the song came from Swae Lee’s leaked video. Swae Lee, Slim Jxmmi’s brother and fellow group member, had posted a TikTok video in August 2022. In it, he altered the lyrics of “Stan” to include references to lean and wealth. Slim Jxmmi argued that nobody had expressed interest in using the sample. That is, until Swae Lee’s video gained attention. As such, he suggested that Millyz’s decision was influenced by his brother’s adaptation.

Shy Glizzy Detained By Police At Gunpoint After Allegedly Pulling Gun On GF: Video

It’s been relatively quiet on Shy Glizzy’s front since the arrival of his Flowers album earlier this year. That saw the lyricist enjoying a moment in the spotlight in February. Fans were appreciative of both his various solo efforts on the tracklist, as well as collaborations with names like Chris Brown and NBA YoungBoy. Today (May 15), unfortunately, his name is connected with far less flattering headlines. Among them are allegations of pulling a gun on his girlfriend during an argument and threatening to harm her.

According to TMZ, Glizzy was arrested this past Saturday following a verbal altercation with the woman. Their situation is said to be on-again-off-again in nature but apparently reached a new low when he brought a firearm into their latest feud. The incident took place on a public street around 9 AM, and afterward, the 30-year-old “took off.” Sources have told the outlet that the West Hollywood Sheriff’s Deputies became involved when a criminal report was filed. Glizzy was tracked down around 6 PM, and promptly arrested alongside his manager.

Glizzy and His Manager Swarmed by Police in Sherman Oaks

A video of the Washington, D.C. native’s detainment has been circulating online, showing a group of officers surrounding Glizzy and his manager at gunpoint while yelling out orders at them. Authorities didn’t find a gun on the accused, and he denied having threatened the girlfriend, who’s allegedly only been in his life for four months now. Regardless, Shy was booked on a felony charge of making criminal threats.

After approximately four hours behind bars, the “White Girl” rapper was freed on a $50,000 bond. At this time, the WeHo Sheriff’s office continues to investigate. TMZ reached out to the embattled artist and his team for further clarification on the situation but didn’t hear back in time for publication. Are you surprised by the news of Shy Glizzy’s detainment?
