The 33-year-old rapper – born Rakim Athelaston Mayers – was arrested by Los Angeles Police Department in connection with a November 2021 shooting in Hollywood.
He was taken into custody after he and Rihanna returned from vacationing in Barbados on Wednesday, April 20.
The musician posted his $550,000 bail and was photographed the same day he was released from a Los Angeles jail – just hours after he was arrested at LAX.
Los Angeles Police Department investigated Mayers after a man claimed the rapper shot him after an argument in the Selma and Argyle Avenue area.

Mayers is accused of approaching an acquaintance on the street around 10:15 p.m. on November 6 and firing a pistol at him three or four times.
One of the bullets reportedly grazed the victim’s left hand and he later sought medical treatment.
After the alleged shooting, Mayers and two other men he was allegedly traveling with fled the scene.
Authorities worked with the victim and were eventually able to name Mayers as a suspect in the shooting.

Police arrested the rapper with the help of Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The case will shortly be submitted to the Los Angeles County Attorney’s Office for review.
The couple are currently expecting their first child, and the singer reportedly canceled her baby shower because of the arrest.
“Rihanna was there when Rocky was arrested and cried non-stop,” a source told The Sun.
“She is heavily pregnant and these are very serious allegations, it’s a nightmare scenario for her.”
“It was supposed to be Rihanna’s baby shower in LA on Wednesday night but they had to cancel.
The source continued, “Rihanna was very, very upset and stressed out by Rocky’s arrest. It’s not the best time for her to be on such an emotional rollercoaster.”
