Former friend ASAP Relli is set to testify in the trial against ASAP Rocky, who faces felony assault charges. Relli claims Rocky pulled a gun on him during a confrontation near the W Hotel in 2021, a moment that dashed their longstanding friendship. Amid strained relations, Relli expresses disbelief that a gun was pointed at him. Rocky, maintaining his innocence, asserts the shots were blank from a prop pistol. The testimony is anticipated to be pivotal, especially with Relli facing intense cross-examination.
I told him to use it. Because mentally I couldn't believe it, Relli testified, with his old friend staring at him intently from the defense table.
He's famous, Relli said. I'm nobody. The testimony will come on an abbreviated court day.
Relli described the first part of the confrontation, and was on the verge of describing the alleged shooting itself when court ended for the day.
Rocky, whose legal name is Rakim Mayers, has pleaded not guilty to two felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm.
