Finding a decent picture of A$AP and Flatbush ZOMBiES is hella job… Whatever: it finally dropped! One week after Lord$ Never Worry hit the internet, the visuals for the psychotic Bath Salt is here. Rocky, ANT, Meech and Juice hook up for some…disturbing piece of…art?! Drug abuse?! Horror?! Somewhere in between.
RiRi does Rocky. Or the other way round… Anyway: A$AP Rocky knocks a quick 16 on the remix for Rihanna’s remix of Cockiness (Like It). Song is…kinda aight, I guess. It’s nice to see Rocky jumping on songs by artists like Usher and Rihanna and getting the exposure he deserves, I just hope that won’t effect the grittyness of his upcoming album LongLiveA$AP, slated for a Halloween-release.
Alright! Finally! FINALLY! A$AP Mob drop their new mixtape/album/callitwhachuwanna Lords Never Worry. 18 songs of Mob Madness! Stop readin‘. Give it a spin! Link comes courtesy of Live Mixtapes!

A$AP Ant, Juice from Flatbush Zombies and Remy Banks finally drop the visuals to their new single 3FLIPS6, off of their upcoming EP. This one is…wicked. Yeah, that’s the right word. I simply love this new approach New York rappers have. Go head with it, rockin‘ those gold fronts, rappin‘ over screwed beats!

Recently I had the chance to touch down with the hottest MC in the game right now: A$AP Rocky that is. He and his crew invaded Berlin on his European tour…and boooooy what a blast this was! Venue filled with weed smoke, fine girls everywhere and the A$AP Mob doin‘ what they do best: raisin‘ hell!
Right before the concert took place, John and me sat down with Rocky and chopped it up for 93.6 JAM FM Berlin. Talk was about Screw-Tapes, haters and stardom.
We kicked it off with the obvious: DJ Screw! The man & the myth has been referenced continously in Rocky’s music, so I grabbed my vintage 3 ‚N The Mornin‘, pulled it out the pocket and asked the Pretty Flacko what he knows about the maze!
So after the foundation was built, we got a lil‘ deeper into it, talking about how Rocky was first introduced to Screwed Music. By the way: his favorite Screw-song is „25 Lighters„. How could you not love DJ DMD, Fat Pat & Lil Keke?!
Things got a lil‘ more serious afterwards when we talked about Hip Hop’s No. 1 Topic: haters! Hear how Mr. A$AP deals with hate and how he explains hateration as a whole.
The Pretty Muthafucka seems so vivid, so graphic – it’s almost impossible to believe A$AP Rocky is a real person but more of a piece of art. Rocky breaks it down pretty simple though…
With the Rakim-reference bein‘ made, I had to ask Rocky about the interview with Angie Martinez, when she brought the God Rakim in the studio and introduced him to A$AP. Now, since it’s pretty sure to say Angie’s his favorite radio personality for that, I wanted to know WHO I had to introduce to Rocky for that new No. 1-spot.
Now, the next question is pretty strange from a retrospective, since there’s some MAJOR funk goin‘ on between Rocky’s A$AP Mob and SpaceGhostPurrp’s RVIDXR KLVN, but two weeks ago, this is what Rocky had to say about SPG and their „situation“.
Comes across pretty awkward considering all the twitter-beefin‘, the youtubin‘ and all the rah-rah goin‘ on right now between A$AP and the KLVN! Let’s just all hope the funk ain’t gonna get physical but that they’ll squash their situation and continue to produce heat like they did with Purple Swag, Pretty Flacko and all that good shit.
Nonetheless, we finished off the interview with a lil‘ insight on how stardom comes naturally to the leader of the Mob, even though it’s puzzling sometimes when you wake up in a hotel room and don’t really know where you are…
Right afterwards Rocky invited us to stay with him and the Mob to hang out and have a good time. Just after we got ourselves something so smoke, I sat down with A$AP Yams had some mad conversation about Screw tapes and hoochies and just zoned out. Mad respect at Yams for that Screw-skull on his neck and the whole Mob for all the love they where showin‘ me. Special shout out goes to Geeno for the company and his hospitality and also J Scott & Chace Infinite.
Oh…and for all of you that weren’t fortunate enough to witness the show, just peep this as a lil‘ glimpse of what went down when A$AP crashed the Festsaal Kreuzberg:
