A$AP Rocky Seeks the Help of Al Sharpton


Earlier this month Harlem rapper A$AP Rocky was arrested in Stockholm Sweden after getting into a street fight with two randoms and then deemed a flight risk and remanded into custody [click here if you missed that].

Now Rocky's family is seeking the help of Rev. Al Sharpton to get him free...

From The NY Daily News
Civil rights activist and media personality Rev. Al Sharpton is joining the fray in support of the Harlem-born lyricist.
On Wednesday, Sharpton met with Renee Black, A$AP Rocky’s mother, and other relatives of the men arrested in Stockholm on June 30, at his National Action Network corporate offices in New York.
The group appealed to the longtime civil rights activist to help with his release.
Ironically A$AP name checked Rev. Al Sharpton in an interview once where he explained why he wasn't interested in speaking up about social issues.
