Rapper Maino ticketed by police near Rockefeller Center

The Brooklyn native and rapper Maino was pulled over yesterday near Rockefeller Center for driving with a suspended license. Maino, performer of the hit song ‘Hi Hater,’ allegedly refused to heed police-enforced traffic directions, reports The BoomBox.

Maino, whose real name is Jermaine Coleman, got away with a slap on the wrist after cops issued him a desk appearance ticket and allowed him to continue on his way, a far cry from earlier interactions with the law. Maino, 27, spent a decade in prison on kidnapping charges and was let out in 2003.
