T.I. has been arrested! Already? What took so long?

Cue the sad trombone noise.

TMZ broke the news early this morning that the Atlanta-born rapper and his wife Tameka "Tiny" Harris were pulled over late last night on Sunset Boulevard by an L.A. County Sheriff for making an illegal U-turn. And what do you know, they allegedly found a few controlled substances in the couple's Maybach. (Apparently it's unfashionable for celebs to ride without those these days.)

You'd think the cat would be making a concerted effort to stay out of trouble for a little while, especially given it's only been like 18 months since he got out of the federal pen. Speaking of which, a few of T.I.'s fellow hip-hop superstars have commented on his arrest over the past 12 hours, including Fitty and DJ Drama.

50 Cent offered his two cents on the sitch via Twitter, suggesting that Tiny should take the fall for her hubby to keep him outta jail.

"Tiny gotta take that charge," he tweeted. "Say it was yours baby."
