Dylan Dilinjah from Diddy's Making the Band 2 series was arrested for assaulting a man in North Carolina.
According to an arrest warrant obtained by TMZ, police apprehended Dilinjah in connection with an alleged altercation that took place on Thursday in Wake County. The report stated Dilinjah slapped a man named Joseph Galullo across the face twice, with police arriving shortly after to arrest the rapper and charge him with assault.
Dilinjah posted bond at $500 and is due back in court on July 1. The arrest comes after Dilinjah's name popped back up in the spotlight last year after he claimed the famous Chappelle's Show skit mocking himself and the group ruined his music career.
In a conversation with the We Are Flatbush podcast, Dilinjah spoke on how much that skit really hurt, explaining it was difficult to get people to work with him.
"Any time I send my music to DJs, they say, 'Oh, that's the n***a that Dave Chappelle made fun of. Nah, I'm good on that,'" said Dilinjah. "Not only that, but now, every promoter says, 'Nah, we're not booking him.' So now I have a newborn, and the fridge is empty in 2005, and no one is calling me. Everyone is laughing."
He added, "At that time, no one picking up they phone.Not one label. And at that time, you had to sign to a record label. And I called all of them direct. And they said, 'I can't help you.' That joke took over. That joke burned [my career]."
