One day after a jury was sworn in, opening statements are expected Friday in the Los Angeles trial of rapper A$AP Rocky, who is charged with two counts of assault stemming from allegations he pulled a gun on a hip-hop artist during an altercation in Hollywood and then fired at him soon after in a separate confrontation.

Nearly a hundred jurors will pack back into a Los Angeles courtroom Wednesday with the possibility that they’ll serve on the three-week trial.

He’s eager to tell his story. He would love the opportunity to do so,” rapper’s lawyer Joe Tacopina tells Rolling Stone while cautioning no decisions have been made about defense testimony

A$AP Rocky's accuser, former friend and the key witness at his trial is set to take the stand Tuesday afternoon. Rocky, the rapper and partner of Rihanna, has pleaded not guilty to two felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm for allegedly firing at the friend who goes by A$AP Relli.
