A$AP Crew hailing from Harlem. More info at www.asapmob.com [URL=http://cdn.stereogum.com/files/2011/09/stageinvasion-3443.jpg][IMG]http://cdn.stereogum.com/files/2011/09/stageinvasion-3443.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Born & raised in Harlem, New York, ASAP Rocky is no stranger to the cliche rap lifestyle, popularized by fellow Harlem Patriarchs from Big L & Kool Moe Dee to Ma$e, and Cam'ron. However, Rocky's entrenching yet melodic rap style has drawn more immediate comparisons to recently incarcerated Harlemite Max B. "Rocky" the Nickname given in part, from his birth name Rakim (after the legendary NY emcee), and in part for his scrappy, yet suave persona, would quickly embrace Harlem's diverse music lineage. Raised by his Mother, Rocky was exposed to soulful records such as those from Curtis Mayfield, and Marvin Gaye, in addition to the sudden wave of 90's Gangsta Rap, as well as local Harlem talent. Feeling he had played student of the rap game for long enough, a young Rocky tried his hand at penning his first verse, after hearing his older brother pound out beats on the kitchen table. Instantly recognizing the talent in his sibling, he insisted Rocky not only finish the song but start a new hobby, combining his already popular nickname with the acronym ASAP, meaning To Accumulate Status And Power (also the name of Rocky's Crew of Harlem Based contemporaries) Since that time music has changed drastically, but not ASAP Rocky's ear for quality, as he began making his rounds on the local battle rap circle, and ghostwriting when the opportunity presented itself. By not limiting his musical inspirations geographically, Rocky maintains this diversity in his music today, drawing inspiration from such stark opposites as the Red Hot Chili Peppers & Hope Sandoval to Cee-Lo Green and MGMT. This diversity, evident in his viral debut Purple Swag, is clearly what rap fans have been craving, as the video amassed an impressive 100K+ views in a matter of days. Paying tribute to the screw legends of Texas and their infamous purple potion, but with a distinct Harlem flavor. Rocky is avoiding hipster cliche, and the recent swag overload, with a more organic yet still braggadocio style, self proclaimed as Harlem's Pretty MotherF**Ker.Rocky's uniquely authentic introspection, and style have many toting the youngster as NYC's emcee to watch in the year to come. And if Rocky's initial buzz is any indication, all signs point to a rap resurrection, appropriately led by the kid named after "The God Emcee."

He's been rapping more or less seriously since he got his GED four years ago and now his song "Peso",produced by 17-year-old neighborhood kin ASAP Ty Beats, is in rotation on Hot97. Underlying this momentum, Drake tried to tweet a compliment at Rocky over Labor Day weekend, but mentioned an impostor account instead and deleted traces of the mistake. Rocky doesn't use Twitter. In August, Rocky hosted collaborators and internet friends, SF rap duo Main Attrakionz and Florida's Spaceghostpurrp, at his Garden State condo. Rocky's been busy in the city, so we met him downtown in a secret blunt-safe basement beneath a clothing store. He told us why he's not selling drugs anymore (It's corny), what ASAP stands for (everything) and what kinds of girls he likes to fuck (weird ones). Rocky performs with Spaceghostpurrp, GHE20 G0TH1K and Das Racist tonight at Santos Party House. See you there! __________________________________________________________________________________ [img]http://www.earmilk.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Cfgky2.png[/img] [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ob3ktDxAjWI] Peso by ASAP Rocky[/url] [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuZ2QZKYj7c] Purple Swag by ASAP Rocky[/url] [url=http://www.limelinx.com/files/707eb418472b7418dbd0815dfa4ef8f8] Purple Swag Bootleg by ASAP Rocky x Jim E Stack[/url] [url=http://www.earmilk.com/2011/09/17/asap-rocky-trilla-feat-asap-nast-twotwelve/]Trilla feat. a$ap Twelve and Nast[/url] [url=http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/en/play/s/d93bc64-479588/]Back to the Future by ASAP Rocky[/url] [url=http://thecollagedropout.tumblr.com/post/10525806869/jon-james-feat-asap-rocky-celebrate]Jon James feat.
