A$AP Rocky told Swedish police that his nickname is "Pretty Motherfucker" while being questioned about his involvement in the altercation that led to him being charged yesterday with assault.

According to an investigative report obtained by The Blast, Rocky was asked if he went by any nicknames, to which he is said to have replied, "Yes. Rocky, A$AP Rocky, Pretty Motherfucker — I can't think of any more.” The report also states that Rocky said he's "paranoid of all strangers."

"I'm a celebrity. I've had unfortunate events in my past," Rocky reportedly said, and then mentioned a 2016 incident in which he was attacked in a hotel elevator.

“For example, when I was in […] New Zealand, I was attacked by a person in a lift who had smoked crystal meth," he said. "There were three people who were influenced by crystal meth who had attacked my security guard and cut the police, all of which is documented."

Rocky has been held in detention in Stockholm since July 3. He was formally charged with assault yesterday and his trial should take place within the next two weeks. See the complete timeline of his arrest here.
