Houston Rapper Z-Ro Jailed For Drug Possession

Houston bred rapper Z-Ro is currently incarcerated for possession of a controlled substance charge, according to an arrest report obtained by us.
As previously reported, Z-Ro (born Joseph Wayne Mcvey)
has been locked up for the past months and no one, including his label, Rap-A-Lot Records, had an idea why the rapper was in captivity.
SOHH contacted the Holiday Unit Transfer Facility, where Z-Ro is currently incarcerated and they confirmed this info, adding that his projected release date is May 3rd, 2008 and that he is eligible for parole on December 13, 2006.
Trae, Z-Ro's cousin and label mate, believes the rapper will be out in a little while.
"F**k what the paper says," Trae told us in a recent interview. "He'll be home soon. Just remember that. It ain't gon' be in 2008."
Trae refused to specify what Z-Ro was caught with but revealed his brother was also arrested along with this cousin.
"Some of that stuff is really personal, man, "explained Trae." But, the point is they were stopped and the search didn't go right, man. My little brother is in there with him right now, too."
As previously reported,
Z-Ro was slated to drop an album this month. It is unknown whether the untitled project will hit shelves anytime soon.
