Yesterday, a disturbing video surfaced in which head of VLONE A$AP Bari seemed to be engaging in a potential case of sexual assault. Today, Bari has issued a statement regarding the events that transpired in that hotel room:

"A misleading video clip featuring adult content and activity has been released to the public without my knowledge or consent. Comments about myself or anyone being detained or arrested are false. We have resolved this issue amicably among all parties as adults. We were friends before this and will remain friends afterwards. Being raised by strong women who taught me to respect everyone, I’m disappointed in the situation as well as myself and will reflect on the situation appropriately."

The victim in the video has apparently tweeted out a statement of her own, though the authenticity of identity has yet to be confirmed. As for Bari, it's unclear whether or not police will ultimately get involved. For now, the story remains in development.
