Jive Records has released a statement to the media explaining T-Pain’s arrest.
“T-Pain was given a few traffic tickets several years ago for minor infractions (speeding ticket, running a stop sign, failure to pay etc.). These were mistakes that Pain made as a young man that just received his driver’s license. He did not have the money nor the knowledge at the time to take care of them. The “arrest” this morning was him voluntarily turning himself in. It was scheduled with our local attorney and coordinated with the jail. There was no bail and he was released on his own recognizance within a few hours. He is in transit to his show tonight at the University of South Florida in Tampa and will not miss any scheduled engagements.”
T-Pain has quickly made a name for himself in the music business since his arrival on the scene in 2005. His new album “Church” hit stores in June of this year and he has been nominated Favorite Male Artist (Soul/ Rhythm & Blues) at this year’s American Music Awards this year.
