Detroit rapper Sada Baby, known for hits like "Bloxk Party" and "Whole Lotta Choppas," was arrested on a drug charge in Macomb County, as confirmed by court records. His arrest last Wednesday relates to a warrant issued against him following a January traffic stop where he was previously detained for driving without a license, CBS News Detroit reported. During the stop, police indicated that they saw potential illegal contraband in his vehicle.
Sada Baby, whose legal name is Casada Sorrell, addressed the allegations during an episode of the "Politely Raw with Pacman Jones" podcast. He claimed that the substance in question was not cocaine but rather "Percocets, 10 of 'em." Sorrell also mentioned that he was unjustly accused of driving without a valid license even though he had one at the time. Sorrell aired his grievances, saying, "I appreciate everybody, you know, anybody who got a brain can pay attention to me getting targeted for me livin' where I live at, for me doin' what I'm doin'," according to a Detroit Free Press interview.
Sorrell's legal encounter began earlier this year when Shelby Township Police took him into custody in Sterling Heights on a felony drug warrant. Sorrell refutes the cocaine possession claims and asserted during his interview with Pacman Jones that he has never used hard drugs like cocaine or heroin. "Cap. . . super cap," the rapper stated, using slang to express that the allegations were false, as covered in a report by ClickOnDetroit.
In the legal proceedings, Sorrell pleaded not guilty to the controlled substance possession charge. He was released on a $5,000 personal bond and is scheduled to return to court on April 21. Meanwhile, in a related case, he pleaded guilty to a lesser misdemeanor charge of failure to display a valid license and settled the matter with a $200 fine. Sorrell's rise to fame was marked by his signing with Asylum Records after the viral success of his 2018 single "Bloxk Party" and subsequent hits, including a "Whole Lotta Choppas" remix featuring Nicki Minaj.
