A$AP Rocky Denies Defaming Ex-Friend A$AP Relli

A$AP Rocky

A$AP Rocky is denying allegations made by his ex-friend A$AP Relli. The Harlem rapper recently filed his official response to the defamation lawsuit. 

A$AP Rocky Denies Defaming Relli

On December 26, regarding a defamation lawsuit made by A$AP Rocky’s ex-friend, A$AP Relli, Rocky denied all allegations of claims made by Relli. 

The ongoing legal battle comes amidst Rocky’s pending criminal charges over a shooting incident in November 2021, where Relli accuses the Harlem rapper of firing a gun at him during an argument in Hollywood, California. 

Rocky was later arrested by the LAPD in connection with the shooting incident involving Relli. However, he was released on bond, only to face a civil lawsuit from Rellie seeking damages for the alleged injuries. 

‘Expressions Of Opinion’

In November 2023, prosecutors presented a video as evidence, purporting to show Rocky holding a gun before the alleged shooting. In response, Rocky submitted his official answer arguing:

“The Complaint does not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action against the Defendants in that the statements alleged to be defamatory are not false statements of fact. Rocky said the statements alleged to be ‘defamatory are expressions of opinion.’ ”

Thus, Rocky requested the suit’s dismissal and reimbursement for his legal expenses.

A$AP Rocky Faces Trial As New Footage Emerges In Shooting Case

New developments have surfaced in A$AP Rocky’s shooting case involving A$AP Relli, as prosecutors recently presented video evidence during a recent court hearing. The footage allegedly shows the Harlem rapper holding a gun during a physical altercation with Relli, prompting the case to proceed to trial. 

Footage Revealed

As footage surfaces, A$AP Rocky finds himself in a tense legal battle as he faces trial for his alleged involvement in a shooting incident involving former A$AP Mob member A$AP Relli.  

In a Los Angeles courtroom on November 20, prosecutors presented a video that they claim shows the “Fashion Killa” rapper holding a gun during the altercation with Relli. Throughout the testimony, Rocky maintained a stoic composure, as still photos from the footage further strengthened the prosecution’s argument.

Is That Rocky?

​​During the court proceedings, Detective Frank Flores of the Los Angeles Police Department took the stand and attested that law enforcement acquired the video as part of their investigation. 

The prosecution further supported their argument by presenting still photos from the footage, aiming to establish that the individual with the gun in question was indeed A$AP Rocky. The video, obtained by the Los Angeles Police Department, during their investigation, reveals Rocky donning a dark blue suit, black glasses, and a black facemask. 

Additionally, prosecutors played another clip of what they allege to be two gunshots, although no video of the actual shooting itself has been presented. 

A$AP Relli, who claims to have been shot by Rocky, testified that the incident occurred after they were initially separated. Relli stated that Rocky fired four shots before leaving him on the street. 

No Fingerprints?

However, law enforcement was unable to recover any fingerprints from the 9mm shell casings provided by Relli, raising questions about the validity of his claims.

During the trial, police body cam footage was also shown, revealing the arrival of at least seven officers at the scene and their subsequent search for evidence. 

To date, no gun or fingerprints from shell casings have been found by the authorities.

A$AP Relli Testifies A$AP Rocky Threatened To Kill Him With Gun Held To His Stomach

Former A$AP Mob member A$AP Relli recently unveiled unsettling revelations about an encounter with fellow rapper A$AP Rocky that escalated into a hostile confrontation. According to Relli, this tumultuous encounter unfolded in Nov. 2021, with allegations of him being shot in the hand by the Harlem rapper during the heated altercation.

The Heated Exchange

In a Los Angeles court on Nov. 8,  Former A$AP Mob member, A$AP Relli, whose real name is Terell Ephron, revealed disturbing details about an encounter with Rocky that quickly turned hostile. 

According to Relli’s testimony, the incident occurred at a Los Angeles hotel, where he had agreed to meet Rocky to resolve their ongoing issues. Relli claimed that the incident took place on November 6, 2021, when he was allegedly shot in the hand by Rocky during a heated encounter. 

However, Relli claims that Rocky arrived with an entourage instead of a peaceful discussion, seemingly attempting to intimidate him. The tension escalated, and Relli alleges that the dramatic turn of events involved a gun being drawn. 

Their strained relationship apparently stemmed from perceived broken promises, including support for a slain A$AP Mob member’s family.

‘I’ll Kill You Right Now’

During the heated exchange, Relli testified that  Rocky pressed the gun against his stomach while uttering chilling words, “I’ll kill you right now.” 

Fortunately, the “RIOT (Rowdy Pipe’n)” rapper did not shoot at that moment, but Relli claims that shots were fired shortly after they separated. Relli recalls feeling a searing pain in his hand and realizing he had been shot. 

Allegedly, Rocky fired around four times before fleeing the scene, leaving Relli behind. The incident left Relli shaken and fearful, causing him to delay reporting to the authorities until a day later. 

A video of Rocky was shared of him leaving the courthouse with court reporter Meghann Cuniff, asking him, “Rocky, how ya feeling in there? How’s it going?” Rocky simply threw up two peace signs as he walked off. Rocky had previously pleaded not guilty to two counts of assault with a semi-automatic firearm.

Former A$AP Mob Member Reveals Himself As A$AP Rocky’s Shooting Victim In Light Of Civil Lawsuit

Terell Ephron, a talent manager, producer, fashion and jewelry businessman, better known as A$AP Relli, identified himself as the man A$AP Rocky allegedly shot last November.

Coming Forward

Terell Ephron, a talent manager, producer, and fashion venture capitalist, better known as A$AP Relli, of the former A$AP Mob, has come forward as the man A$AP Rocky allegedly shot last November. 

Rolling Stone was the first to report this as the outlet learned Relli had plans to file a civil suit for assault, battery, and emotional distress against his friend.

Relli has made a move to publicly accuse A$AP Rocky of luring him to an obscure location in central Hollywood 

“to discuss a disagreement between the two of them.” 

This was according to a statement that had been provided to Rolling Stone by attorneys Jamal Tooson and Brian Hurwitz when they announced the lawsuit. 

The report reads:

“Unbeknownst to Mr. Ephron, A$AP Rocky was not just planning for a conversation and came armed with a semi-automatic handgun. After arriving at the location, a conversation ensued whereby without provocation, warning, or any justification, A$AP Rocky produced the handgun and intentionally fired multiple shots at Mr. Ephron.”

Ephron claimed the rapper inflicted minor injuries on his left hand after being shot. 

The statement also alleged that nearby surveillance cameras captured the entire incident. 

Ephron’s attorneys, Jamal Tooson and Brian Hurwitz, have claimed that the former A$AP Mob member had suffered “multiple death threats and irreparable harm to his career in the entertainment industry as a result of this incident.”

They also added they expected the matter to go to a civil trial.

Kanye West’s Hebrew-Written Apology Garners A Response From The Anti-Defamation League

Kanye West is a controversial figure, that is nothing new to anybody at this point. His comments and actions are always under a constant microscope and the ADL are just one group of people that are doing so. They have good reason to as the Georgia-born rapper has been making constant verbal and nonverbal attacks toward the Jewish community. It seems that Ye can truly never stay out of his own way, but he is looking to make amends with the people he has hurt deeply.

Earlier today, the artist hopped back onto Instagram to issue an apology to everyone who practices Judaism. The entire message was written in Hebrew. “I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst caused by my words or actions. It was not my intention to hurt or disrespect, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused. I am committed to starting with myself and learning from this experience to ensure greater sensitivity and understanding in the future.”

A post shared by Ye (@kanyewest)

According to XXL, the ADL saw this and decided to respond on Twitter (X). “After causing untold damage by using his vast influence and platform to poison countless minds with vicious antisemitism and hate, an apology in Hebrew may be the first step on a long journey towards making amends to the Jewish community and all those who he has hurt. Ultimately, actions will speak louder than words but this initial act of contrition is welcome.” It sounds like there is still a long road ahead for Ye and the ADL before things are as smooth as they can be. At this point, it might come to a point of no return, but who knows.

What are your initial thoughts on the Anti-Defamation League’s response to Kanye West’s apology? Do you think Kanye personally wrote the note, or was it his team? What do you think he will have to do to regain trust in the Jewish community and the ADL? Is this going to delay Vultures again at any point? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below.

Top 23 of 2023: Keefe D Indicted For Tupac Murder

Keefe D, Tupac

Coming at No. 4 on SOHH’s countdown of Top 23 moments in 2023, one of the most shocking revelations surfaced as Keefe D, in an interview, confessed to his involvement in the murder of the legendary rapper Tupac Shakur. His confession later led to his highly publicized indictment. 

3. Dry Snitching?

Who Shot Tupac?

In a March 2023 interview with VLAD TV, Duane Keith “Keefe D” Davis openly admitted to his participation in the shooting of Tupac Shakur, an incident that took place in Las Vegas in 1996. 

This revelation caught the attention of law enforcement agencies, ultimately leading to an investigation into Keefe D’s involvement. On July 18, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department conducted a raid at the home of Keefe D’s wife, seizing several items from the 1990s, including magazines, computers, hard drives, and photographs. 

Subsequently, on Sept. 29, Keefe D was arrested in Las Vegas in connection with Tupac’s murder when he confessed to being in the Cadillac that opened fire on the rapper. The arrest of Keefe D prompted the release of new security camera footage capturing his final moments with Tupac at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. 

Keefe D Faces Murder Charges

Notably, Suge Knight, who was present during the shooting, refused to testify against Keefe D during the murder trial, adding a layer of complexity to the case.

As Keefe D’s legal proceedings unfold, it is important to note that his initial court appearance, scheduled for Oct. 4, did not take place as he failed to appear. Additionally, his lawyer’s absence created another setback. Keefe D faces charges of murder with the use of a deadly weapon, along with a gang enhancement.

5. Beyoncé’s ‘Renaissance’ Era

Continuing the Top 23 of 2023 countdown, at number 5, Beyoncé‘s “Renaissance” era shines brightly. The pop icon had an exceptional year, marking a cultural milestone that defined the decade.

Blueface Doesn’t Have A Key To The House He Bought For Jaidyn Alexis

As is almost always the case, Blueface has been embroiled in plenty of drama recently. One of the biggest ongoing threads in the past week has been a house he allegedly purchased for ex-girlfriend Jaidyn Alexis. Fans were surprised to find he had purchased the house for her given that they recently broke up. But Blue explained online that despite their separation Blue still wanted to treat her and the child they had together right.

Questions about the house itself started to emerge thanks to, no surprise, Chrisean Rock. Subsequently she went online and claimed that the house was actually a rental and not a purchase. She also claimed that Blue wasn’t actually the one paying for it. Blue denied her claims and he appears to be right as he’s been spending quite a bit of time at the new house. He spent Christmas day there where he made a series of live tweets as he and his son got stuck inside an elevator in the house. Check out the newest video Blue shared to Instagram detailing his experience with the house below.

Blueface Doesn’t Have A Key To His Own House

Now, there’s some pretty significant evidence that Blue is in fact the owner of the house. But on Instagram today he revealed that he doesn’t even have a key to it. In a new video shared to his Instagram story Blue and Jaidyn have a discussion about getting him a house key. When he asks where his key is at she responds by claiming that he has the code to the garage. Subsequently she seems to suggest that the code is enough for him.

In the comments, fans take sides over who is right in this instance. “He raise hell everywhere he go he wouldn’t get one from me either,” one fan says siding with Jaidyn. “Y’all don’t seriously believe that he doesn’t have access to that home?” another comment suggests. What do you think of Jaidyn Alexis refusing to give Blueface a key to the house that he bought for her? Let us know in the comment section below.
