‘Flossing King’ Flippa Moggela facing drug charges in US again

‘Flossing King’ Flippa Moggela facing drug charges in US again

Only four years after his release from prison on drug trafficking charges, dancehall artiste Flippa Moggela is once again in hot water with United States federal authorities.

The self-styled ‘Flossing King’, whose real name is Andrew Kendrick Davis, has been charged in a New Jersey federal drug conspiracy case, alongside co-defendants Damion Jones, Clifford Brown, and James McBride.

Prosecutors noted that the four men are accused of conspiring to possess and distribute at least 500 grams of “a substance containing a detectable amount” of methamphetamine, at least 400 grams of fentanyl, and at least five kilograms of cocaine between August 2025 and May 2026.

As part of the investigation, a judge authorised the interception of communications from two phones used by Davis. The criminal complaint revealed damning conversations between Davis and an “unknown female” as well as conversations with his co-defendants.

The complaint noted that on May 9, 2026, law enforcement officers observed a US postal worker deliver one of the boxes — mailed from California five days earlier — to an address that was under surveillance.

A subsequent raid netted one of the co-defendants and recovered 10 pounds of suspected methamphetamine and two kilograms of suspected cocaine.

Other raids followed and Davis’ co-defendants were arrested and more evidence seized.

The Dem Yah deejay appeared before US Magistrate Judge Ann Marie Donio on Monday when the charges were unsealed.

He remains in the custody of the United States Marshal until a bail hearing on May 14 in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey.

Davis. also known as Flippa Mafia, previously served several years in prison following a 2016 conviction in a major US drug trafficking and money laundering case (Operation Next Day Air). Despite being sentenced to 25 years, he was released early from prison in 2022 and had resumed his music career, releasing songs like Inna Mi Zone and Own Don in 2025.
