Digga D jumped on Instagram Live as armed police executed a raid on his home in the early hours of Wednesday morning (February 21).
The U.K. drill trailblazer could be heard shouting from inside the home as cops attempted to force entry to his residence.
“What do you lot want? he yelled repeatedly as thudding sounds, and the shattering of glass is heard in the background. “I am here! Stop! What are you lot doing?”
He attempted to communicate to police stating, “I am on the floor.” Digga continued pleaded with them to stop as more breaking glass was heard off camera.
As officer shouted, “Armed police!” Digga D replied, “I’m coming! Why are you lot doing that – yes I heard you.”
The cop commanded Digga to “Come to the front door with your hands up,” before the stream was cut.
It is unclear what led to the raid or whether Digga D was arrested or detained following the incident.
The West Londoner, who recently made history after becoming first drill artist and the youngest rapper headline London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall, is subject to strict restrictions imposed by a criminal behavior order (CBO) in 2018.
The order, the first of its kind in the U.K., restricts where he can go and who he can meet. Additionally, he must also submit any lyrics to police within 24 hours of releasing them in song. Authorities also banned him from performing specific songs and have removed his videos from YouTube.
Digga D On Criminal Behaviour Order Restirctions
In a 2023 interview with The Guardian, Digga D explained the “headache” he endures as a result of the CBO, which expires in 2025. He insisted, “They’ve got me banned from areas and people I don’t even know.”
Digga D’s lawyer Cecilia Goodwin, added, “Everything in his life has changed, apart from the CBO. He is not the same person – yet he is still the subject of this order that hasn’t moved with him, that hasn’t adapted to his life, or his success. So is it necessary?”
