Rocko Arrested in Atlanta After Drag Race

According to a TMZ report, Rocko was arrested in his native Atlanta after he and a friend were drag racing in their luxury cars. With Rocko in his Rolls Royce and the unidentified friends in a BMW, the pair allegedly rolled past the Georgia cops at alarming speeds; however, by the time the police caught up, Rocko had slowed down enough to not be charged with drag racing. Instead, he was booked for driving with a suspended license. His friend didn't go easily, however, fleeing the scene and eventually being arrested and charged with eluding a police officer. The incident took place Friday (March 6) along Atlanta's I-75. There is not yet any information on Rocko's court dates or the status of his bail.

Rocko's only official studio album, Self Made, was released in 2008. It sported some of that period's hottest producers; Drumma Boy handled eight tracks, and other songs were crafted by J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, The Runners and Cool & Dre. Despite the notable absence of Jermaine Dupri beats, the record was released on So So Def. It spawned a minor hit in "Umma Do Me." Rocko became more notable in 2013 with "U.O.E.N.O.," the inescapable Childish Major-produced song that featured both Rick Ross and Future. The former landed in hot water over some of his lyrics ("Put molly all in her champagne, she ain't even know it/ I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain't even know it"). Ross lost several sponsors, including Reebok, whom he had shouted out in the previous bars.
