2 Chainz Sentenced To 18 Months Rehab After Shocking June Arrest

Rapper 2 Chainz is heading to a drug diversion program for 18 months after pleading guilty to misdemeanour possession of a controlled substance; in a case filed after he got arrested at the Los Angeles International Airport last June.

District attorney's spokeswoman Jane Robison however says the rapper, whose real name is Tauheed Epps, has been spared from a felony drug possession charge but only if Epps successfully completes the drug program.

The 36-year-old rapper was arrested in June after airport officials reportedly found ingredients for the cough-syrup-based concoction known as "sizzurp" in his checked baggage.

His legal rep is still to make a statement!
