Rapper 'Chubby Stacks' arrested on drug charges in Putnam County

PUTNAM COUNTY: Over a dozen people arrested in online sex sting 

A traffic stop led to the arrest of three Palatka men, including one known on YouTube as rapper Chubby $tacks.

The Putnam County Sheriff’s Office pulled over a silver 2013 Nissan Altima, and a "strong odor" of marijuana was coming from inside, deputies said.

The driver was De Quan Wright, 23, and two passengers, Ladarron Devon Williams, 20, and Jimmaron Curry, 21, all of Palatka.

Williams is on probation, deputies said.

The car was carrying nearly seven grams of crack cocaine and 6.5 grams of Dilaudid, a controlled narcotic.

A press release issued by the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office said that "Wright, also known by the alias of “Chubby Stacks”, is heavily involved in promoting gang related music videos specific to the Palatka area that emphasize a culture of drugs, guns and violence.

"In many of these videos, “Chubby Stacks” is shown displaying large stacks of money he claims to be the ill-gotten proceeds of illegal drug dealing and often uses the line, “we some dealers, no users” in his lyrics."

Wright is charged with one count of the possession of cocaine with the intent to sell, one count of maintaining a drug vehicle, and one count of the possession of a controlled substance without a prescription.

Wright is out of $12,500 bond. Curry was charged with one count of trafficking in opium and has since been released on a $25,000 bond.

Williams was booked on his active warrant and has since been released on a bond of $276.00.
