The outing comes after it was revealed that A$AP is being sued by his high school best friend, Terell Ephron, who goes by A$AP Relli.
According to Rolling Stone, Terell was allegedly shot at by A$AP in November, and the former member of the rapper’s group is planning to file a civil suit against A$AP, who has not been charged.
Ahead of A$AP’s August 17 court date, Terell is publicly claiming in a statement that he was lured ‘to an obscure location in central Hollywood ‘to discuss a disagreement between the two of them’.
His lawyers, Jamal Tooson and Brian Hurwitz, also claim that the talent manager sustained ‘minor injuries to his left hand’ after the shooting.

A$AP was arrested on April 20 for assault with a deadly weapon and was accused of approaching a man he knew on the street before firing several shots at him.
One of the bullets is believed to have grazed the victim’s left hand and he later sought medical treatment.
After the shooting, A$AP and two other men, who reportedly were walking with him, fled the scene.
While police were able to acquire footage of the alleged shooting, they were not able to find the weapon in question during last weeks raid of his Los Angeles home which turned up multiple guns, sources told TMZ in April.

Police were able to determine on the spot the guns at A$AP home were not the ones used in the shooting because the caliber of the guns did not match the shell casings found at the crime scene, according to the website.
After running the serial numbers police reportedly determined all of the guns in A$AP’s home were legally acquired, and did not take any of the guns to the station.
A$AP was arrested over the incident moments after landing at LAX with then-pregnant Rihanna after enjoying a getaway to Barbados.
At the time, the performer posted $550,000 bail and was spotted leaving jail.

The LAPD issued a statement saying officers ‘worked diligently’ to identify the suspect(s) involved’ and investigate the shooting.
If convicted, A$AP could face up to one year jail time, a $1,000 fine and misdemeanor probation, per California Penal Code. If he received a felony assault with a deadly weapon conviction, Mayers could spend up to four years in state prison, be fined up to $10,000 and have mandatory probation
The incident is not A$AP’s first run-in with the law.
The rapper was arrested in Sweden in 2019 after a fight broke out on the street between his entourage and two men.
Mayers was convicted of assault, issued a suspended prison sentence and required to pay more than $1,000 in damages. He reportedly served a month in jail before his sentence was handed down.
The performer, raised in New York City’s Harlem neighborhood, also was charged with attempted murder at 16.
Mayers, who started selling drugs as a youth, was reportedly bullied by an older man. He went to the alleged bully’s house to confront him and ended up shooting at him.

‘He tried to come at me in front of some ladies. And I was little. He was a little bit older than me,’ Mayers said two years ago, detailing the incident on Untold Stories of Hip-Hop.
The teen, who was carrying a gun for protection, said he thought the alleged bully was reaching for a weapon. He claimed he never intended to shoot the man.
‘I just started letting off,’ Mayers said of the confrontation. ‘I ain’t wanted to hit him. They hit me with attempted murder at first, then it kept getting dropped down.’
Mayers was arrested shortly after the shooting and spent time at the city’s infamous jail on Rikers Island. However, due to his age and the nature of the incident, the attempted murder charges were reduced.
