According to The Fader, Joey Bada$$ has pleaded not guilty to the charges. According to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (via Billboard), the 19-year-old rapper punched a 20-year-old security guard after the guard stopped and checked his credentials before he went on stage on Friday (Jan. 2). The guard was taken to the hospital with a broken nose and other facial injuries. Bada$$ was arrested after the show and spent the night in custody. He appeared in court the following day where he was charged with assault causing actual bodily harm. Read more here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
