Juelz Santana is scheduled to appear in New Jersey Municipal Court today (Mar. 12) after being arrested last week when police pulled him over and discovered hollow-point bullets and marijuana in his car.New York's Daily News has reported that Santana, whose real name is LaRon James, was pulled over in his Bentley near the entrance of his home in Teaneck's gated Glenpointe community.
"This is bullsh*t," the Dipset rapper yelled after being pulled over, according to officer John Abraham.
As he approached the vehicle Abraham reportedly smelled marijuana, and later spied a green leafy substance on the car's center console in addition to Dutch Master and White Owl cigars and marijuana roaches.
Police also discovered 29 hollow-point bullets wrapped in a sock and $19,500 rolled in small bundles that were stashed in a plastic bag full of hundreds of Jolly Rancher candies. A marijuana-laced, hand-rolled cigar was also discovered inside Santana's shoe.
Officers also recovered a sandwich bag stuffed with marijuana on the backseat of their cruiser, where Juelz sat after being arrested.
Juelz has not released an album since 2005's What The Game's Been Missing. In a February interview with Hot 97 personality Angie Martinez Santana revealed that Dipset leader Cam'ron was hindering his work at Def Jam.
"Me and Cam gotta work some things out, bottom line," Santana said. "I came in the game when I was young right, so it's no reason for me - to have accomplished and did as much as I did - to be getting treated the same way as I was treated when I just came in."
In addition to current work on an upcoming album, Juelz also has a joint album with Lil' Wayne in the works, titled I Can't Feel My Face. Release dates have not been announced for either project.
