Rapper Armani White, known for his viral hit “Billie Eilish,” was arrested Sunday night in Kentucky after allegedly causing a disturbance while filming a music video on a major interstate.
The 28-year-old artist, whose real name is Enoch Tolbert, was taken into custody by the London Police Department and charged with second-degree disorderly conduct and stopping, standing, or parking on a limited-access highway, according to booking records.
Authorities said multiple 911 calls came in after witnesses reported seeing White standing on a concrete divider in the middle of Interstate 75, where he allegedly began dancing for the video shoot. Officers arrived and arrested him in Laurel County.
White was booked into the Laurel County Correctional Center and later released. Booking photos show him without his signature beaded hairstyle, which police reportedly required him to remove before his mugshot.
The Philadelphia-born rapper, currently touring with T-Pain, had been teasing new material on social media ahead of the incident. His team has not yet released an official statement.
White rose to fame in 2022 with “Billie Eilish,” which achieved multi-platinum status and brought him mainstream attention.
