I appreciate you and I just want to say I love and admire you.” The two shared a hug, then Rocky shouted out his Houston influences and launched into “Houston Old Head. Rocky responded, “She kicked me out the house,” and Ferg laughed, “She said, ‘Who is this weird-ass n***a with a perm in his hair’” Then Ferg got sincere and told Rocky, “This n***a stayed true and we fucking built an empire. “I wanted to be a fashion designer, and you were like, ‘Yo, bro, we should do this rapping shit,’” he recalled. “And you told my mom, ‘Yo, I promise I’m going to make your son a millionaire and all that shit.’ And she looked at you crazy.” Review Album cover: 9/10 Houston old head Peso Brand new guy Palace Roll one up Wassup Keep it G.
Ferg brought up their first tour with Drake, then got sentimental with Rocky. When ASAP Ferg came out for “Kissin’ Pink,” the two reminisced on their early days together. Working down the tracklist of the beloved mixtape, which was recently made available on DSPs for the first time, Rocky started at the top with “Palace,” “Peso,” “Bass,” “Wassup,” “Brand New Guy,” and “Purple Swag,” stopping between songs to reminisce on his early days running around New York City with the ASAP Mob. Putting a new twist on otherwise faithful renditions of the songs, he brought out a saxophone player for an outro at the end of “Purple Swag,” before members of the Mob joined him onstage for “Trilla.” Since being released from Swedish jail in 2019, rap's foremost fashion darling has been on a journey of self-discovery, musical experimentation, and love. It was a fitting beginning to a night that acted as a walk down memory lane for Rocky, who was there to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of his iconic debut mixtape.
#ASAP ROCKY WASSUP COVER FULL#
Wearing a Black Scale Funeral snapback hat, a red AWGE flannel, and a white tee, he pulled an American flag over his shoulders and rapped in the middle of an arena full of people at Long Beach Convention Center. As he thrashed around in the middle of a chaotic crowd, dressed in throwback threads, you couldn’t help but think of those wild performances he used to do in smaller New York clubs back when he first broke through with Live. Whether you're spinning $AP for the first time or for the millionth time, check out the re-released version below and let us know what you think in the comments.Five minutes before ASAP Rocky’s headlining set was supposed to begin at ComplexCon 2021, a group of people rushed into the middle of the crowd. For a few moments, there was confusion as the group made their way through the audience, before ultimately forming a circle around 100 feet from the stage. Then, out of nowhere, Rocky popped up from the middle of the circle and started performing “Grim Freestyle.” Writing, "FROM DA $TA$H HOU$E 2 DA LATE NIGHT$ AT DA $TUDIO$ WIT NO CHICKEN, DI$ PROJECT WA$ HOW DA WORLD FIR$T HEARD WHO ROCKY IZ WHO JODYE IZ WHO FLACKO IZ.," Rocky made it clear how important this project was, and still is.Ĩ. While Rocky has seemingly strayed further and further from music in recent years, the "Goldie" shared a heartfelt message on Twitter yesterday, marking the tenth anniversary of his debut tape and paying tribute to the experiences and people that helped him along the way. Boasting features from Schoolboy Q on "Brand New Guy," and A$AP Mob members Nast and Twelvyy on "Trilla," $AP is a blast of nostalgia, with songs like "Peso" throwing it back to a simpler time, and production from legendary producer Clams Casino woven throughout the album. Unfortunately, the re-released version does not include fan-favorite tracks "Kissin' Pink" and "Out Of This World," but does include one new track, "Sandman" and the rest of the original mixtape. Today, nearly 10 years after $AP dropped in 2011, the mixtape has finally reached digital streaming platforms. That variety in sound, combined with Rocky's affinity for high-end fashion designers like Raf Simons and Rick Owens, turned him into a bonafide superstar in the blink of an eye. Despite Rocky's Harlem roots and the mixtape's occasional homages to New York City and its signature hip-hop sound, $AP draws influences from every corner of the country, from Atlanta to Houston to The Bay. Has an intoxicating chopped and screwed sound with catchy lyrics about recreational. A$AP took advantage of that in a major way. Asap Rockys Purple swag single from the live, love, ASAP mix tape.
