A$AP Rocky’s A$AP Mob has been sued by the stage manager at last year’s FADER Fort party at South By Southwest Music Festival for a brawl that took place during their performance.
According to Courthouse News, Anthony Montalbano claims that the crew “beat the hell out of him on stage” as he tried to remove the sound equipment, as the group was destroying it. In the lawsuit, he names A$AP Mob, Sony Music Entertainment and Fader Media Network for failing to provide him with proper security to take away the equipment.
Montalbano says that during the performance, members of the group “shouted obscenities indicating their dissatisfaction with the microphones and damaged musical instruments and equipment that was on the stage.” After a FADER employee asked him to remove the equipment, he was “grabbed by the defendants and continuously punched in the face and head for several minutes and said defendants hit plaintiff in the head with a microphone.”
Montalbano needed 10 stitches in his scalp from the injuries, and said that three members of A$AP Mob were charged with assault. He is seeking compensatory and punitive damages for “negligent hiring, emotional distress, assault and battery and negligence.”

sounds ignorant.. at the same time there’s been plenty of soundmen i’ve wanted to beat the hell out of over the years.
at the same time there’s plenty of artists that don’t even show up to this thing called soundcheck, but still wanna blame the mixer.
is this qwazaar from typical cats
its a huge festival with alot of headling acts, fucked up mics and equipment wud make me wanna murder someone
so…..when it’s Game and 12 dudes jumping 40 Glocc, although we only see Game vs 40, it’s a travesty…..now it’s the ASAP Mob, where only three are charged with assaulting one sound man…..it’s cool…..
comparing 2 totally different situations = epic fail. different conditions, different reasons…
assault is assault buddy, good try though

bitch ass snitches
I hope this dude takes these ducks for everything they’re worth… If you think he’s a snitch or whatever for suing these guys, you have a lot of growing up to do. Get out of your fake hip hop bubble. In the real world when a “mob” of dudes beat a single guy in the face for 10 minutes and fuck up everyone else’s property in the process, they have to deal with the repercussions. If you think he should just go home and keep it real, you’re a fucking loser.
Thanks white dude.
These fags were upset that the mics weren’t big enough to please them anally.

ASAP Mob is so garbage their mics and sound equipment quit on them.Now that’s a special level of terrible for mics to do that…
