And you told my mom, ‘Yo, I promise I’m going to make your son a millionaire and all that s#.’ And she looked at you crazy.”Ī$AP Rocky told the crowd: “She kicked me out the house,” and Ferg laughed, “She said, ‘Who is this weird ass n***a with a perm in his hair’” Then Ferg got sentimental and told Rocky, “This n***a stayed true and we f# built an empire. “And you were like, ‘Yo, bro, we should do this rapping s#. “I wanted to be a fashion designer,” Ferg recalled. More importantly, it sets the tone for an entire six songs dedicated to transcending traditional New York rap. He reminded Rocky of a conversation they had while on tour with Drake. The slow-burner truly established what the young Harlem spitter was capable of. Later, A$AP Ferg performed alongside him for “Kissin’ Pink,” and the two recounted a story from back in the day. He worked his way through the project performing songs including “Palace,” “Peso,” “Bass,” “Wassup,” “Brand New Guy,” and “Purple Swag.” In between songs, he told stories of his early days in New York with A$AP Mob, who joined him on stage to perform “Trilla.” A$AP Rocky Reminisces with Ferg View this post on InstagramĪ post shared by COMPLEX you grew up on this s#, we’re about to have a m# good time,” he said as he opened the show. Let's hope to get that number back up this time around.The New York Native was celebrating the 10th anniversary of his iconic debut mixtape at Long Beach Convention Centre as girlfriend Rhianna cheered from the side of the stage. On Rocky's debut album, we only got two Clammy beats. A strange, indescribable mix that still needs to be explored. They brought the world a brand of hip-hop that's emotional, druggy, and chalked full of swag clique anthems that are simultaneously turned up and down. Though it's pretty hard to fuck up a Casino beat, A$AP Clams' chemistry goes unmatched. Clams produced five tracks on $AP, the coming-out tape that brought Rocky instant celebrity. After working with Rocky, Clammy Clams has gone on to produce for Mac Miller, Schoolboy Q, Jhené Aiko, and the aforementioned FKA Twigs. Or, at least, his come-up wouldn't have happened nearly as fast as it did. Without Clams Casino, there might not be an ASAP Rocky.

We also know one of Rocky's main producers, Clams Casino, will be back-and, for now, that's enough to keep us going. We don't know any of ALLA's rap features, though we know it will feature R&B genre bender FKA Twigs and Swedish pop singer Lykke Li. The hype for ASAP Rocky's second album continues to grow, but Flacko's been less forthcoming than most artists when it comes to details. A history of ASAP Rocky's work with producer Clams Casino.
