The rapper also hopped on Twitter to dish out details of the jail experience..
"Just spent my entire night in a fucking Florida jall...sh*t escaladed way to quick last night, it always does with us though.," he tweeted January 29th.
"Thanking God that only half of us went to jail, that @216XPLOSIVE is outta the hospital, and that we get to go back to Cleveland today..."
"The weirdest part of it was how many inmates in there knew who I was and knew about the movement. It was some trippy shit. Lace the F*CK up" (Machine Gun Kelly's Twitter)
Last August, MGK was arrested at a Cleveland mall for leading a flash mob.
Cleveland rapper "Machine Gun Kelly" was arrested Saturday after inciting a flash mob at South Park Mall, Strongsville police said. Officers responded to the mall after being tipped off about a possible flash mob taking place at 5 p.m. Although he was asked by the SPD to refrain from standing on a table, Baker did it anyway, sending his die-hard fans into a frenzy. A YouTubevideo shows the rapper jumping up on a table with a megaphone in the food court, but just as soon as he was up, police officers yanked him down. (WJW-TV)
Despite the negative press, he quietly handled the fine days later.
The rapper accused of creating a flash mob at Southpark Mall on Saturday paid his fine and resolved the matter without stepping foot inside a courtroom. Colson Baker, aka Machine Gun Kelly, was scheduled to appear in Strongsville Mayor's Court Thursday. Instead, Baker sent over the payment for his ticket on Wednesday. (19 Action News)
