Florida rapper YNW Melly was arrested in Lee County on two misdemeanor drug charges. One count of possession of marijuana not more than 20 grams and one count of possession and/or use of drug equipment.
The 19-year-old -- who some think is the next big thing out of Florida -- isn't sweating it though, smiling widely in his mugshot and assuring his fans he'll be out of jail by the time his tour starts on January 27th.
Free Melvin

The charges he faces are pretty minor, but Melly's past may complicate things here. He served time in 2017 on weapons charges for a shooting he was involved with.
