Rapper whose real name is Rakim Mayers given suspended sentence
A court in Stockholm has found the
American rapper A$AP Rocky guilty of assault in a case that earlier this year led to a US-Swedish spat when
Donald Trump attempted to secure his release.
The artist, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, claimed he was acting in self defence during a 30 June street brawl in the Swedish capital, where he said he tried to avoid a confrontation with two men who he said were persistently following his entourage.
