More details are emerging surrounding the events that led to 21 Savage's arrest.

Abraham Joseph also known as 21 Savage apparently entered the USA legally in 2005 but his visa expired and he reportedly is here illegally according to reports.

According to three police reports, 21 was in a red Dodge Challenger and drove across the sidewalk in an attempt to get onto another street.

Demi Lovato has deleted her Twitter after she received huge backlash for posting a meme about rapper 21 Savage. This is a civil law violation, and the continued detention of Mr. Abraham-Joseph serves no other goal than to unnecessarily punish him and try to intimidate him into giving up his right to fight to remain in the United States.

The rapper has admitted ICE is correct in its claims he was born in the United Kingdom, as an obtained birth certificate indicating he was born in London borough Newham showed, but denies the timeline of his immigration that ICE has alleged.

Most tourists visit Uganda to tour national parks for diverse wildlife species such as gorillas, birds and other animals. The initiative has however stirred up a storm with the minister now facing accusations of trying to promote sex tourism.

According to Variety Jay-Z has enlisted his lawyer, Alex Spiro, to help assist in the rapper's case. The tabloid publication reported that they weren't listed at the time of the rapper's arrest in the police report.

The meme was making a joke about 21 Savage, who was arrested on Sunday morning by Immigration and Customs Enforcement for reportedly overstaying his visa - as he was born in Dominica, which was a British colony.

In the meantime, a legal team is now working on a case for 21 Savage, and say it was all a 'misunderstanding'.

"Mr. Abraham-Joseph has no criminal convictions or charges under state or federal law and is free to seek relief from removal in immigration court".

In a statement, Kuck said, "Like nearly two million of his immigrant child peers, (he) was left without immigration status as a young child with no way to fix his immigration status". Jay Z released a statement on Facebook that said Savage deserved to be reunited with his family immediately.
