A$AP Rocky's explosive Rolling Loud performance sparks rap beef debate
A$AP Rocky made headlines at Rolling Loud California 2025, delivering a fiery performance that included direct shots at rap rivals and former A$AP Mob associate, A$AP Relli. During his set, the Harlem rapper debuted a new track featuring pointed lyrics that seemingly addressed the ongoing Big 3 rap beef involving Drake, J. Cole, and Kendrick Lamar. Rocky rapped, "I ain't on J. Cole, I ain't on Drake, I ain't on Kendrick side / I choose homicide, they gon' see a different side," making it clear he's staying neutral while embracing an aggressive stance. Another line, "N****s do the most when they irrelevant / Claiming A$AP, but we were never friends," appeared to target A$AP Relli, who previously filed a lawsuit against Rocky. Adding to the hype, Rocky reunited with UK grime legend Skepta to perform their 2018 hit "Praise The Lord (Da Shine)," which fans on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) hailed as the "Greatest USA X UK collaboration of all time." The viral moment sparked fan reactions, with users calling Rocky "the king of Rolling Loud" and demanding the track be recognized as an anthem. Skepta's presence further intensified the conversation, as he played a pivotal role in bringing UK grime to the global stage. With hip-hop's biggest names engaged in lyrical warfare, A$AP Rocky's latest performance proves he's still a force to be reckoned with in the rap game.

Juror In A$AP Rocky's Criminal Case Says 'He's Lucky' There Wasn't 'Enough Evidence' To Convict
A$AP Rocky was acquitted of the charges against him in his criminal trial, but one of the jurors has said the rapper was lucky to avoid a conviction. Rocky has been embroiled in a legal battle since his arrest in April 2022 after he was charged with two counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm. The "Peso" rapper was involved in an altercation with his former friend, A$AP Relli, who accused him of firing a gun at him in November 2021. Although Rocky, real name Rakim Mayers, was acquitted of the charges against him, one of the jurors in his trial has opened up about the thought process before arriving at their verdict. In a chat with freelance journalist Nique at Nite, the unidentified female juror spoke candidly about the decision not to convict the rapper. She said, per BET, "Everybody was really focused on delivering justice. I think that we really took our time. We discussed all the issues, all the questions that we had, we clarified those, we really kind of looked over some pieces of the evidence that people wanted to see a little bit more closely." The juror added, "And I think that we did the best we could with the instructions that we had, and with the evidence that we had." The juror also shared that though a vote suggested that the jury leaned toward a verdict, some jurors had their doubts. She explained, "I think we kind of were almost at the verdict [but] we had a couple of people, including myself, who … still had some questions and we were all thinking that a crime had been committed." The woman added, "But the thing is with the instructions we had and with the law, we didn't think there was enough evidence to convict." The prosecution claimed Rocky fired a gun at Relli, but his defense team countered by stating that he used a prop gun, which he carried for security purposes. However, the rapper's defense didn't convince most jury members. The juror said, "I think most of us felt it was a gun. Just from the behavior on the videos and from some of the testimony." She added, "Unfortunately, a lot of the witnesses—we didn't consider all of their testimonies to be reliable." The juror also highlighted how the lack of the alleged gun, which was never recovered, further fueled skepticism and created a significant gap in the prosecution's case. She said, "I didn't really believe it. I didn't think that ... they had really convincing evidence that it was a prop gun. It was kind of a little mystery the way it disappeared, and they couldn't produce it as evidence. So some of the testimony did not sound accurate or truthful." Rocky was delighted to be acquitted after a three-week trial. If convicted of the crime he was charged with, the "Praise The Lord" rapper could have faced a jail term of up to 24 years. The juror believes Rocky was lucky there wasn't enough evidence to convict him and admonished him to tread carefully in the future. She said, "I hope that in the future, Mr. Mayers really thinks about his actions before he is upset with somebody." The woman added, "He does have a lot to lose. He's lucky, at this point, that we didn't have enough evidence to hand down a conviction." Rocky was grateful to the jurors after they exonerated him of the crimes he was accused of committing, telling them, "Thank y'all for saving my life." TMZ reposted a video of the juror's interview on Instagram, and many fans took turns sharing their thoughts on it. One person quipped, "I thought jurors aren't supposed to talk about the cases? Hope her 15 seconds of fame is worth it." Another person added, "So basically, you let him go free with a warning." A third fan shared, "Normally jurors value their right to privacy. This one is dying for attention. Jesus." Another fan expressed, "She probably just doesn't ever want to be on the jury anymore." A fifth person commented, "They were scared of Rihanna."
