UPDATE 25/11/2017: Hopsin’s dropped a new song all about the time he got jailed in Australia

UPDATE 08/09/16: Hopsin has made a statement via social media, calling the assault case against him “exaggerated bullshit” and revealing that he hasn’t been banned from Australia.

UPDATE 07/09/16: Hopsin has been handed a two-year good behaviour bond and a 12-month AVO by a Sydney magistrate after pleading guilty to assaulting a woman in Sydney.

Rapper Hopsin (real name Marcus Jamal Hopson) was allegedly jailed in Australia last night, and says he could now be banned from the country.

The American MC posted to his social media accounts yesterday saying, “Sydney! What’s going down tonight? I’m bored.” Then, this morning, he announced that he’d just gotten out of jail and was about to be banned from Australia.

Hopsin hasn’t disclosed exactly what landed him in trouble, but he has published an emotional Instagram post (below) saying, “Shit ain’t really that pretty over here at all… I can’t see myself ever doing it, but I actually wanna literally die. Like literally.

“This may be a moment that I look back on and laugh, but right now, I’m not laughing. What would make a 31 year old man cry on a daily basis? Being rich as hell, successful with no love around him.”

In a statement to Music Feeds, New South Wales Police say officers from Sydney City Local Area Command arrested a 31-year-old man at a hotel in Sydney at around 10:45pm last night, 5th September 2016, but are not able to confirm the man’s identity.

“He was taken to Sydney City Police Station where he was interviewed and charged with common assault. He was given conditional bail and will appear in the Downing Centre Local Court on Wednesday 7 September 2016,” police say.

Music Feeds has contacted Hopsin and his management for comment.

Back in 2014, Hospin announced that he was retiring from music and moving to Australia. He didn’t do either, but he did tour the country at the end of last year.
