Rakim Mayers, better known as the rapper ASAP Rocky, will headline the Rolling Loud festival and serve as a chair of the Met Gala this year — as long as he dodges a conviction at his trial for a 2021 Hollywood shooting.

To fans' surprise, Rihanna made a rare public appearance at the rapper's LA court hearing for his alleged shooting trial.

A$AP Rocky's accuser, former friend and the key witness at his trial is set to take the stand Tuesday afternoon. Rocky, the rapper and partner of Rihanna, has pleaded not guilty to two felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm for allegedly firing at the friend who goes by A$AP Relli.

With partner Rihanna in court in support, Rakim Mayers — a.k.a. rapper ASAP Rocky — faced testimony from his former collaborator, the alleged victim of a 2021 Hollywood shooting.

Rihanna appeared for the first time at the trial of her longtime partner A$AP Rocky, on the day of its most important testimony — the description by a former friend of the moment Rocky allegedly fired a gun at him.

Recording artist A$AP Rocky left a Los Angeles courtroom after former friend testified about alleged shooting.
