Randall McCain bragged in a rap song that the feds were watching him but were unable to catch him. It appears the feds took that personally.

McCain was arrested for allegedly running an international drug ring, and prosecutors say that his rap lyrics helped them build the criminal case against him and dozens of others.
'I'm on the road right now ... 200 bows in a n***a's state ... 3,500 for a pound this that better weed.'
The criminal organization allegedly peddled narcotics and black-market marijuana and spanned all the way to Spain and the United Kingdom.
The ring was based out of a metro office park in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, but extended to California, Texas, Illnois, Arkansas, and Florida.
The suspects posted rap videos with lyrics that "celebrated and advertised" the drug trafficking operation, according to prosecutors. Some of the claims in the songs were corroborated by activities documented by police.
One of the rap lyrics cited was, "The feds tryna watch me but they couldn't I was swapping whips," which means the rapper was swapping cars in order to avoid detection by law enforcement.
Another set of lyrics cited was the following: "I'm on the road right now ... 200 bows in a n***a's state ... 3,500 for a pound this that better weed." The slang apparently translates to $3,500 for 200 pounds of marijuana.
Yet another refers to criminal activity from the home at the rapper's grandmother.
They also used popular social media platforms like Snapchat and Instagram to run the business, as well as encrypted platforms like Signal.
Eighteen suspects have been arrested, and officials say as many as 40 in total may be implicated in the drug ring.
Most of the suspects arrested already are facing charges of conspiracy to commit a felony.

I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
