Earlier this year, 36-year-old rapper Big Boi was arrested for alleged drug possession while exiting a cruise ship. Sources said that the Outkast rapper had ecstasy pills, MDMA powders and unprescribed Viagra on his person. Now, however, the rapper born Antwan Patton has taken a plea deal.

According to the Associated Press, Big Boi reached a deal in a Miami courtroom earlier today (October 13). Under the agreement, he will commit to three months of community service and drug testing. He will also donate $2,000 to charities.

Facing two felony drug charges, prosecutors said that Big Boi will be clear of the whole thing if he makes it through the three months of drug testing. That means unless you get a proper prescription, no Viagra for three months buddy!
