In 2011, Harlem’s A$AP Rocky emerged at the forefront of a resurgent New York rap underground. Connecting the dots between a wide spectrum of ’90s rap and the fashion-savvy hip-hop vanguard, Rocky and his A$AP Mob team quickly ascended to global stardom.
In this public lecture as part of the 2015 Red Bull Music Academy UK Tour, Rocky sat down with journalist Hattie Collins on the Red Bull Studios London couch where he wrote much of At.Long.Last.A$AP. During their discussion, he opened up about his relationship with London, his reverence for artists ranging from Bone Thugs-N-Harmony to The Castaways, and meeting his friend and Mob-partner A$AP Yams.
