Busta Rhymes was arrested on a drunken driving charge on the early morning of May the third in New York, police said.
Officers stopped Rhymes at about 12:40 a.m. because the sport utility vehicle he was driving had overly tinted windows. Officers then smelled alcohol on the rapper's breath.
Rhymes, 34, was taken into custody on a charge of driving while impaired. An arraignment was expected later today. A lawyer for Rhymes, Scott Leemon, declined to comment, saying he would address the charges in court.
Rhymes, whose real name is Trevor Smith, has had several law enforcement run-ins since last year. He is tentatively scheduled to go to trial Tuesday on two assault charges.
