The popular rapper, singer and songwriter A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie has been arrested on gun and drug charges in northern New Jersey, Bergen County Prosecutor's Office announced Tuesday.

Twenty-five-year-old Artist J. Dubose, also known as A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, was charged with one count of unlawful possession of a handgun and one count of possession of marijuana following a search warrant at his Demarest home Monday, which resulted in the seizure of four guns — specifically a Ruger .380 handgun, a Glock .40 caliber handgun, an H&K 9mm handgun, and a Smith and Wesson 9mm handgun — hollow point bullets, various high capacity magazines, as well as marijuana, hashish oil edibles and drug paraphernalia commonly associated with the distribution of controlled dangerous substances, prosecutors say.

The raid most likely stems from a "shootout" last night ouside of a #NewJersey night club.

Dubose was arrested following the search warrant, as was Quashaun Hagler, a 33-year-old of Buford, Georgia, employed as personal security.

Both were released on their own recognizance.
