A$AP Rocky has been detained in a Swedish prison since July 2, following a June 30 street fight that broke out in Stockholm, and now he's getting support from Congress.
Hip-hop artist A$AP Rocky has been detained in a Swedish prison since July 2 -- following a June 30 street fight that broke out in Stockholm -- and with Hollywood and hip-hop already rallying behind the rapper, he is also now getting support on Capitol Hill.
Espaillat was joined at a Wednesday press conference by Congressional Black Caucus members Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, who chairs the House Democratic Caucus, Rep. André Carson and Congressional Hispanic Caucus chairman Rep. Joaquin Castro . The lawmakers said that the three men are being held in"solitary confinement," suggested that they are being treated unfairly and urged the U.S. State Department and the U.S. and Swedish embassies to do more to facilitate the trio's release.
The State Dept. announced on Wednesday that Risch is traveling to Sweden, but did not specify the reason for his travel. ABC News confirmed with the rapper's Swedish press representative that Mayers has a new attorney, Sloban Jovicic, but he is currently not commenting on the case ahead of the hearing, according to the press representative.
"I think that race matters," he said."It plays a factor across the world and I think that it may have played a factor as well in Stockholm, Sweden."
