A$AP Rocky Covers Complex (April / May 2015)

A$AP Rocky recently revealed his album title At.Long.Last.A$AP in a GQ cover story and the next magazine up is Complex. In the story, Rocky talks rushing his first album, the death of A$AP Yams, whether or not he’s single,A.L.L.A. and more.

To be fair, it’s been a long day, and he’s barely on the other end of it. A studio all-nighter that ended at 8 a.m. A photo shoot. This interview. A corporate fashion meeting. But despite his schedule, the “no comment” is still a surprise, even though it’s in response to a question about his love life. And not even a great one. It’s one of several times during this conversation where Rocky rolls his eyes, leans his head back—his braids dangling over the back of a studio chair—and stares into the ceiling in response to a question. He’s just not feeling it tonight.

STREAM AKALA'S NEW ALBUM 'KNOWLEDGE IS POWER VOL 2'

Being a brutally conscious writer and historian, BAFTA and MOBO award winning artist Akala brings more to the UK rap game than most. As a result, his music often makes you feel like you should know more, or at least care more, about pretty much everything that's going on around you.

Knowledge is Power Vol 2 is his fifth studio album, and while the North London rapper sounds decidedly wiser, he doesn't sound like he's losing any of the fire in his chest, coming out with bars that pack more punch than a drunk Mike Tyson at a pinata party.

This is all the boom-bap you need for a weekend, and you should cop it now. Stream above.

Knowledge is Power Vol 2 is out on March 30th, and you can pre-order it here.
