The 28-year-old hip-hop star was arrested early Tuesday in Atlanta after Cobb County police clocked his Range Rover going more than 100 mph.
Police spokeswoman Cassie Reece said Ne-Yo, whose real name is Shaffer Smith, was booked on charges of reckless driving and driving without a license and released later that day on a $1,300 bond.

He’s due in court Mar. 25 to answer to the charges.

Ne-Yo, whose sophomore album Because of You won the Grammy this year for Best Contemporary R&B Album, has a home in Atlanta. - source

Sgt. Frank Russo described what led two Maryland State Police officers to pull over two vehicles around 10:30 p.m. Thursday night on Route 50 westbound near Rising Eagle Rd.

“They observed what appeared to be two vehicles driving in tandem at a high rate of speed,” Russo said.

One occupant was Nahum Grymes, better known as J. Holiday, who had just finished up his performance at UMES.

“There was visual observation of marijuana on his person, on his front shirt, and that coupled with the odor of marijuana, Mr. Grymes was arrested for that,” Russo said.

A search of the vehicle yielded a nominal amount of marijuana in the center console. J. Holiday and one other occupant, George Jackson, face drug possession charges.- source
