Earlier this month A$AP Rocky was released from Swedish custody for assault charges. The Testing rapper and his two co-defendants pleaded not guilty to the charges and will find out if they have to serve time on Wednesday, August 14th.
He thanked his fans for riding for him during this “difficult” time and urged them to continue praying for him because the trial isn’t over yet.
“Hopefully with God’s will I’m not guilty and shit,” he said. “I get the verdict on Wednesday . . . Hopefully we ain’t gotta go back to jail or nothing like that, nothing crazy. I don’t got nothing against Swedish people.” Rocky added that Swedish fans were protesting outside of the jail rallying for his release.
