Various news outlets are reporting today that best selling rapper and actor T.I. and his wife, reality star Tameka “Tiny” Cottle were arrested for possession of a controlled substance in Hollywood last night. 

TMZ broke the story reporting that L.A. County Sheriff’s deputies pulled over the multi-platinum selling rapper and his wife in a Maybach on Sunset Boulevard around 10:18PM. When searching the vehicle, cops found a controlled substance. Law enforcement sources told TMZ that the controlled substance was not cocaine, but rather the class of controlled substance that triggered the arrest included methamphetamines and ecstasy.

This new arrest comes at a bad time for the rapper. He’s currently on probation after serving nine months in prison on federal weapons charges. Ironically, he recently told CNN’s Larry King that he was ready to break free of his troubled past. “Well, I’m just ready to put the bad things behind me and look forward to the future and, you know, just move forward and evolve — continue to evolve.”

Both T.I. and Tameka “Tiny” Cottle posted bail early this morning.
