(Video) CRWN with Elliott Wilson & A$AP Rocky: Part 2

admin / 28 Apr, 2015

Part 2 of CRWN with A$AP Rocky and Elliott Wilson finds the Harlem MC talking about the importance of his hometown (“fashion and culture, we’re the mecca of it”), his affinity with high fashion, and his opinion on Kanye West. “Him and Pharrell paved the way for artists like myself. I would be full of shit if I didn’t tell you that when I was 16, I was inspired by Kanye West.”

Rocky also talked about getting permission to be named Pretty Flacko Lord Jodye II from the original Pretty Flacko Mos Def, hating on Lil B before respecting the Based God, and being on psychedelics when Pusha T played him some crazy new music.

But the heaviest part of the entire interview came at the very end, when fellow Mob members A$AP Nast and A$Ap Twelvyy joined Rocky onstage as they talked about their fallen brother, A$AP Yams, who passed away in January. “[A$AP Mob] always been close, so I’m not gon’ say him passing brought us closer together,” said Rocky, “but what I will say is we appreciate each other way more ’cause we know tomorrow ain’t promised to nobody.”
