Gun dealer Matthew Best, who goes by the rap stage name Neno Best, was arrested in the largest gun bust in New York City history after he repeatedly posted photos of his guns and wads of cash on Instagram.

Police seized 254 firearms from the aspiring Brooklyn rapper, The Verge reports. They were tipped off about a larger gun smuggling ring after Best Instagrammed pictures of a brown paper bag filled with cash as well as multiple pictures of guns.

Best bragged on social media that he was dealing firearms out of his recording studio. The bust has led to 19 indictments, including Best and his best friend.

Since his Instagram account has been removed, it will be difficult for Best to document the arraignment process through the Kelvin filter.
