All he had was E and viagra?

To be honest, that's no big deal. I have never used either but as BoyGeorge said MDMA isn't nearly as dangerous as say, meth or heroine or coke. Its a low-risk drug and has less side effects than viagra. Even though its a methoxylated amphetamine and has effects similar to mescaline, it has a much lower neurotoxicity. Its one of those drugs that our justice system has deemed worse that what it actually is. I suspect that they will try to make an example of him and give him maximum time for possession of a controlled substance.

It doesn't make a lot of sense whyhe had so much drugs on him in a public place like a cruise ship. But even more unusual is that he didn't have weed on him. That's what I would have expected to see in the list.

Oh I know younger guys use it, I've read about it but come on this is BIG BOI we're talking about. lol

Anyone familiar with the effects of Ecstasy/MDMA knows it inhibits the ability to "get wood", yes, even if you're a hip hop star like Big Boi.

I'm venturing an educated guess that the Viagra was to overcome this undesirable effect.

Uh oh, looks like someone in the entourage is gonna get paid to do the time. Notice the lawyer has made the statement that the drugs were found in the "collective luggage."

Big Boi Released From Jail

'Fresh Out Baby,' Outkast MC tweets following his arrest on drug charges.

Big Boi didn't spend very much time in jail on Sunday. At approximately 1:30 p.m. ET, the Outkast rapper was arrested after Customs agents in Miami allegedly found MDMA powder, Ecstasy pills and Viagra (a controlled substance) in the ATLien's luggage upon his return from a cruise.

"Fresh Out Baby!" Big Boi tweeted at about 6 p.m., followed by, "Sh-- they said it was the Love Boat," two hours later.

Big was charged with three counts of possession of a controlled substance and one count of possession of drug paraphernalia and was held at the Pre-Trial Detention Center in Miami on a $16,000 bond. Last week, Sir Lucious Left Foot tweeted that he was on vacation and sent out photos from Puerto Rico and Grand Turk Island via the social networking site. The rapper was apprehended upon returning to the States.

The MC's attorney, Daniel Kane, sounded confident that his client would be cleared. In a statement issued to MTV News, Kane said, "While Big Boi was traveling with his group and friends, a small amount of contraband was found in the collective luggage. I am confident when the entire facts are aired, Big Boi will be completely exonerated."

Big Boi, born Antwan Patton, got his start in 1994 alongside Andre 3000 in the group Outkast. Together they released six studio albums including the 2006 soundtrack for their film "Idlewild." They've sold millions of albums and earned four Grammy awards. Last year, Big Boi released his first solo LP,Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty, and the group is rumored to be working on a seventh studio album, though there's no official word on a release date.

smh at the stupidity of some of these comments. he uses it recreationally.. what he does and what he uses in his bedroom is not our bizness.

Arrested for Viagra and a couple of extacy? Pathetic. No wonder our police force is hurting for money, wasting time busting people for something as small as this. What a waste. grow up. this is a big to do about nothing.
