Last year, it was reported that A$AP Rocky had been charged with assault, stemming from an incident at that year's Made In America festival where he allegedly slapped a female fan. It seemed Rocky was actually able to avoid charges, as the case was put on hold until the plaintiff could supply a "viable address" for the rapper.

Close to a year later, Rocky has finally been hit with a lawsuit. The woman who filed the suit is looking for "compensatory and punitive damages for civil assault and battery, intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress, negligence and premises liability".

While no charges came from it, Rocky found himself facing similar accusations last summer, when video surfaced that appeared to show him hitting another woman at a show in Australia

The rapper has yet to comment on the suit. Updates to come as information arrives.
