‘There were profanities’: Rapper 50 Cent arrested for swearing at Caribbean concert

US rapper 50 Cent and a member of his entourage were detained in St Kitts and Nevis for using “indecent language” during a performance at a music festival, local police said Sunday.

A police statement said 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, and a member of his entourage named Bajar Walter were arrested and charged after a Saturday night performance.

The rapper’s representative Amanda Ruisi said in a statement Sunday that Jackson initially had been booked only to host the St Kitts Music Festival.

But then, festival organizers insisted he also perform and “there were profanities used during his performance, ”said Ruisi.

She said Jackson will make sure to leave the profanity in the US during his next trip to the Caribbean country.

Jackson paid a fine and was on his way home on Sunday, she added.
