Rocky was supposed to perform at the city\u2019s Smash Festival. He defended himself in a pair of Instagram videos. The clips allegedly show two men following and harassing the emcee and his crew.

\u201cHits security in face with headphones then follow us,\u201d Rocky wrote on Instagram. \u201cIm innocent. They trynna arrest me out here now, SMH.\u201d In the caption to another video, he wrote,<\/span> \u201cSo a few drug addicts are not my fans. We don\u2019t know these guys and we didn\u2019t want trouble, they followed us for 4 blocks, and they were slapping girls butts who passed, give me a break.\u201d (In one of the videos, an unseen woman can be heard telling Rocky that one of the men \u201cslapped [her] ass and [her] girlfriend\u2019s ass.\u201d)<\/p>\n
