2 Chainz has been released from jail after being arrested yesterday at LaGuardia Airport in New York City.

As we reported yesterday, the ATL rapper was arrested for having brass knuckles in his carry-on bag, but it turns out the brass knuckles was just a harmless 4-finger ring that spells out “DOPE.”

Rapper Big Sean tweeted that 2 Chainz wore the ring at a recent video shoot, and 2 Chainz was also spotted wearing the ring at the Velvet Room on Sunday, where he attended the after party for Drake’s Club Paradise tour. 2 Chainz is currently on the Club Paradise tour with Waka Flocka Flame, Meek Mill, French Montana and J. Cole.

2 Chainz called MTV News after his release from jail.

“I do exclusive pieces. My pieces are actual conversation pieces, like, literally,” said 2 Chainz. “When you see my gold, when you see my stuff, it’s something to conversate about. People weren’t doing four-finger rings and all that. I just like to set myself apart, so I definitely wasn’t trying to beat nobody up on the airplane or nothing.”

2 Chainz tweeted the following after his release:
