Travis Scott came to the support of his often-mistaken-for rapper ASAP Rocky. Scott took some time in his headlining set at Wireless Festival in London to shout for the rapper’s freedom from prison. Rocky was originally scheduled to perform at Wireless Fest, but a recent skirmish between the rapper and a man on the streets of Stockholm landed him in jail on assault charges. Scott joined the onslaught of rappers supporting Rocky’s innocence and called for his freedom on stage.
Scott shouted for Rocky’s freedom before launching into a song. “Let’s do it, man,” he said into the mic. “Free Rocky.”
