HOUSTON (KTRK) -- A Houston-based rapper was arrested on charges stemming from money laundering, delivering marijuana and organized crime.

Officials say he was part of the "Kream Clicc Gang."

"They're saying organized crime, but I'm organizing music for my album," Emekwanem Biosah said.

Biosah, 26, goes by the stage name "Maxo Kream." He denied the accusations in a video posted to Twitter.

"Doing right, trying to take care of my family," he said.

Investigators say Maxo Kream and seven other gang members were shipping marijuana from California to Texas through the mail. A narcotics task force seized 85 pounds of marijuana, 2,000 pills of Xanax, 13 guns and other contraband from homes in Fort Bend and Harris counties.
