Legal issues involving rapper BigXthaPlug
Overview
Rapper BigXthaPlug, born Xavier Landum, was arrested in Allen, Texas, on August 21, 2026, following a traffic stop. He faces charges of driving while intoxicated, possession of marijuana, and unlawful possession of a firearm.
The arrest led to the cancellation of his performance at the Country Rising Festival in Winnipeg, Manitoba, which organizers attributed to a “personal emergency.” However, Landum proceeded to perform his scheduled set at the Iowa State Fair following his release from the Collin County Jail, telling the crowd, “They didn’t think I’d come.”
This arrest follows a history of similar legal issues, including an August 2023 arrest involving marijuana and firearm charges for which he was reportedly out on bail at the time of this incident.
