A$AP Rocky, one New York’s more popular rappers, is under scrutiny for a recent video that has surfaced on the Internet.

According to multiple reports, during a stop on his international tour, the Harlem rapper was involved in an awkward exchange with a woman that was caught on camera. From multiple angles, the female concertgoer taps Rocky on the top of his head. Rocky takes offense and appears to immediately slaps the woman with an open hand across the face.

While the slap snapped her head back, the woman didn’t seem surprised or shook up — but the footage is alarming.

In a time where mainstream hip-hop has been under scrutiny for its misogynistic lyrics geared toward women, Rocky should be prepared for some possible backlash.
