Rapper Big Boi of the hip-hop duo Outkast was arrested in Miami on several drug charges on Sunday, according to online county corrections records.
Big Boi, whose real name is Antwan Patton, was booked around 1:30 p.m., charged with illegal possession of controlled substances Viagra, ecstasy pills, and MDMA powder, according to inmate records.
Records also show the 36-year-old was charged with intent to use. Bond on all charges totaled $16,000.
Patton was on a cruise ship over the weekend, according to his Twitter feed, but additional details of the arrest were not immediately available.
But after being released on a $16,000 bond for being caught with Vigara and ecstasy by the border patrol while disembarking a cruise ship in the Port of Miami, Andre 'Big Boi' Patton started his own roast...

Big Boi's lawyer released the following statement,
"While Big Boi was traveling with his group and friends, a small amount of contraband was found in the collective luggage. I am confident when the entire facts are aired Big Boi will be completely exonerated."
