Capone, half of the duo Capone-N-Noreaga, was arrested in his New Jersey home yesterday on a child-support evasion charge for failing to pay thousands in child support.
The rapper presently owes over $160,000 to the mother of his 12-year-old daughter and is supposed to pay $1,500 per month until she is 21.
He has not paid since 2004, according to the New York Post.
Prosecutors said he has made three payments in eight years, totaling $144.
Capone, real name Kiam Holley, has been released on $10,000 bond.
“It is what it is. I know it looks bad on paper, but I take care of my daughter,” the 36-year-old rapper said outside the court room.
Judge Joan Azrack allowed Capone to travel to New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
