Rapper A$AP Rocky was charged with two felonies Monday for pulling a gun on a former friend and firing in Hollywood last year, prosecutors said.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office charged the 33-year-old New York native, whose legal name is Rakim Athelaston Mayers, with two counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm.

Mayers has not entered a plea to the charges. He is scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday. An email seeking comment from representatives was not immediately returned. Mayers and two other men fled the scene after he fired the gun, police said. He was first arrested for the incident at Los Angeles International Airport on April 20, and was released on bail the same day.

Shocker alert 🚨

Why don't rappers just focus on thier craft. Other artists are geniuses because they have no time to deal with stupid drama that involves a firearms. Grow up. Older rappers were so much better.

Honestly, there should be a heavy prison sentence associated with charges like this, no matter who is involved. This is sickening
