Far from the first time, either; the would-be rap musician has quite a rap sheet already. Love the mugshots below.
A would-be rapper's burgeoning musical career hit a snag last week when police pulled him over in the school bus he allegedly stole from the west side of the state so he could drive to Detroit to record music, according to a release issued by police Tuesday.
Washtenaw County sheriff's deputies arrested Josiah Daniel Curtis, 25, of Grand Rapids at about 10 a.m. on Thanksgiving after receiving a call reporting that someone was driving a school bus erratically on eastbound 94 near Zeeb Road in the Ann Arbor area.
"We had a unit nearby, and they saw the bus swerving and weaving," Washtenaw County Sheriff Sgt. Geoffrey Fox said. "When we stopped (it), he told us he was headed to Detroit to work on some music."
WOOD-TV in Grand Rapids reports that Curtis attempted to steal seven school buses from a locked lot in Wyoming, crashing several into a loading dock and fence before making off with one of the vehicles.
He made it most of the way across the state until his run-in with the Sheriff's Office, Fox said. . . .

This guy is very much alive, and looks very much stoned.

which doesn't really seem to be the case here- despite the hairdo.

But this clown certainly deserves an honorable mention (and needs to be removed from the gene pool).

A community that thrives on terrible rhymes and shitty beats would make that dumbass their leader.
