Styles P attempted to defend a woman from what appeared to be an unfair arrest by the police in a video that just went viral. The woman, an Uber delivery partner, is seen being held by police in the footage.
Another woman witnessed the incident on camera and shouted at the police for handcuffing the delivery partner. The woman who was filming the incident shouts that the guy was not fighting arrest. The rapper seems to be present there. He urged the woman capturing the video to keep going and attempt to assist the arrested woman.
Styles P advised a police not to touch him when the officer attempted to approach him. He then shifts to the woman who is being held behind him. The musician has received praise from online users for assisting the woman in confronting the police.
The woman allegedly ran from the police while being probed for dangerous driving on an unregistered scooter on a busy downtown sidewalk, according to the most recent update from Yonkers Police. She was apprehended by one of the officers, who attempted to detain her; however, she resisted, and as a result, she had to be shackled and pinned to the ground.
A weapon was discovered in the front box of the moped before she was arrested. An internal probe reportedly got going right away at the scene, according to the statement. This included interviews with everyone involved and an examination of all video surveillance footage, including body-worn cameras. Additionally, the statement claims that no physical force was employed to hold the woman. The declaration mentioned,
“The investigation is still going on. The body-worn camera footage from a key officer involved is included in the accompanying video in its entirety and without editing. The Yonkers Police Department is dedicated to openness and providing the community of Yonkers with respect, loyalty, and service. As new information becomes available, it might be released about this interaction.
All about Styles P
Styles P began rapping while a member of the hip-hop group Lox, where he also met Mary J. Blige. The lyrics of Lox impressed Sean “Diddy” Combs, who then signed them to Bad Boy Records. They worked with rappers like The Notorious B.I.G., Diddy, and others, which helped them become well-known.
The majority of the singles by Diddy, Mariah Carey, The Notorious B.I.G., and Mary J. Blige in 1996 and 1997 were written and produced by the group. The trio received praise for their hit, “We’ll Always Love Big Poppa,” which served as an homage to the late Notorious B.I.G.
Following the 1998 publication of their debut album, Money, Power, and Respect, Lox continued to write further tracks. The group tried to break free of their contract as the record reached the top of the charts. They were freed after persuading Puff Daddy to follow suit, and the Bad Boy was left to sign with Ruff Ryder Records.
A Gangster and a Gentleman, Styles P’s debut solo album, debuted at the top of the US Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts in 2002. He then appeared on a different take of Akon’s debut single, Locked Up, which was released in 2004. His second album, Time is Money, was then published in 2006.
In 2010, he released two albums, The Green Ghost Project and DJ Green Lantern, along with a few mixtapes. The World’s Most Hardest MC Project, Master of Ceremonies, Float, Phantom and the Ghost, and those four albums came after this in 2011 through 2013 and 2014, respectively.
After a lengthy hiatus, Lox returned in 2016 with the album Filthy America… It’s Beautiful. Thereafter, a few more albums were released up until 2019. After that, Styles and Dave East worked together to create the 2018 album Beloved. Styles David: Ghost Your Enthusiasm, his thirteenth studio album, was then made available in May 2020.
