Rapper 50 cent has been arrested for allegedly using abusive slang while performing his hit number "PIMP" at a concert.
The 40-year-old star had been already warned of profanity in the public but the artist played against the instruction which later put him into trouble, according to TMZ.
Police have booked him in the Caribbean, where he will have to pay a fine and also appear before the court.
"I'm The Man" hitmaker is not the only rapper who got apprehended with the law because of cursing. In 2003, DMX was also arrested for allegedly using some filthy words onstage at a concert.
