Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... T.I. and his wife Tameka "Tiny" Cottle were arrested because cops claim they found what appeared to be ecstasy in their car.
We broke the story ... T.I. and "Tiny" were arrested on the Sunset Strip last night after making an illegal U-turn. Cops say they smelled marijuana, conducted a search and found a controlled substance.
We're now told that the substance was allegedly ecstasy. And, our law enforcement sources call it a "small amount."
The pills are being tested.

Wow TMZ so much for your Sizzrup theory although you did give me a good morning laugh. Looks like my theory of it being Ecstasy was right. All the cups were filled with water most likely because X completly dehydrates you.
Nice try though.

Does this really surprise anyone. This individual got a year in jail for weapons charges that would have put a poor man away for a long time, gets released early now has a drug charge.
Not surprised at all, but will be if he or she go to jail where they belong!

SLOW NEWS DAY?
So over sooo much info on drug arrests. Who gives a **** about every tedious detail. I love the TMZ site, normally for celebrity news and stuff, but you go way overboard with the details, and getting arrested for drugs is so over.

T.I. is being FRAMED!!!!!!!!! T.I. does not do drugs and for him and Tiny to be in the car with drugs in it, this crap is ludicrous!
If you ask me, someone is jealous of T.I.’s success especially since the new movie Takers did so well in the box office, that they are trying to frame him. I seriously need for T.I. to stop trusting people because it’s either the driver if there was a driver or the guy that was with him, someone got it out for him and is setting him up to destroy him
