Rocky was facing serious charges, with prosecutors accusing him of firing a semi-automatic handgun at Relli during a heated altercation back in November 2021. Had the verdict gone the other way, Rocky could have been looking at 24 years behind bars. Instead, the jury ruled in his favor, and now he’s free to continue life as usual—with his superstar partner Rihanna by his side.
However, not everyone is happy with how things played out. Relli, who was the alleged victim in the case, is now facing a wave of online backlash, with many calling him a “rat” for taking the stand against his former A$AP Mob brother.

His words make one thing clear—he’s not fazed by the backlash and is choosing to rise above the drama.
