Rapper Tone Loc was detained by Midland Police at the airport because of a teenager wearing a confederate hat.

According to CBS 7, new video of the confrontation shows the rapper, who goes by the legal name Anthony Terrell Smith, saw a teenage boy wearing a confederate hat and confronted him.

The video shows him getting into an argument with the parents of the boy who said that he has the right to wear whatever he wants.
