Tyler, The Creator, figurehead for hotter than hot right now hip hop collective Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All, has been arrested in Los Angeles on charges of disturbing the peace. According to reports, the rapper was arrested on the charges after playing a show at Westchester High School. Specific details of the nature of the offence are yet to be released. The outspoken new figurehead of hip hop, however, was released from the clink in time to play a show at the Troubador Club in the same city that night.

Naturally, Tyler, The Creator wasn’t going to let the incident slide, being a bit of a mouthy type as it were, and he quickly took to Twitter to share his thoughts with the world. “And Fuck Those Cops. Had Us In Cuffs For No Reason, Didn’t Do Shit. “Disturbing The Peace, Loitering And Skating Pass A Cop” What The Fuck?” he vented, ensuring that the Los Angeles Police Department may keep him in the cells for a phone booking next time they pick him up. Tyler, The Creator is set to head to Australia in a few weeks to play shows with Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All at the Opera House in Sydney and a one off show at the Prince of Wales in Melbourne that sold out in four minutes on Wednesday. If you don’t have a ticket … good luck getting one!
