Complex magazine has once again featured A$AP Rocky on its cover, this time for its December 2012/January 2013 issue.
In the interview, Rocky, who previously covered Complex alongside Jeremy Scott, discusses his influence on Kanye West‘s fashion and what listeners can expect from his upcoming debut LongLiveA$AP.
But he also discusses his falling out with SpaceGhostPurrp and addresses how his “life revolves around hating on me.”
“I had a lot of close friends stab me in the back for their own greedy desires. I never saw that coming. I never thought my real niggas would be on some fuck shit with me, and do wack shit. I’m a good nigga, and a lot of people fuck with me and then leave with these accusations trying to fuck up what I worked hard for,” he said. “For example, the whole thing with SpaceGhostPurrp. I didn’t say anything. He’s putting his foot in his mouth. People are starting to see he’s a racist and crazy and bipolar. I look on the Internet and every time we put something out he gets his Raider Klan people to be like, ‘You’re biting,’ and it’s like, ‘You’re just mad I’m bigger than you.’ His life revolves around hating on me, and this is a guy who used to live in my house. My mom took care of him. Before I had a record deal we were sharing dinner plates and shit.”
The Harlem, New York rapper also contemplated a reconciliation with SGP, but said that his actions have made it difficult.
“It happened. It’s like it was meant to happen. It is what it is. When the heat came down, he was the only scared one. He was going to have to serve three days in jail like everybody else. Long story short, Purrp went down South, started talking shit about niggas. It was a cowardly move.”

Love Jerry.
GTFOH with that bullsh*t. Why the F would you post something so ridiculous?
loool this made my day
I know this nigga mad wack, but he seems like a good kid.
Complex is the definition of a Garbage Magazine. This nigga appeared on the cover twice in a year!!! How the fuck they let some shit like that happens???
damn Purrp, that nigga had you living in his momma house and you hating cuz he borrowed your sound ? you co-signed it in the first place.
ASAP has sold his soul to the industry. SGP’s still making hits for the underground. Raider Klan all day.
Yes! When asap made that 4m$ contract he sold he’s soul,immediately all the videos and music started to went shittier,focusing on nonsense shit 2.7.5
The thing that kills me about the situation is this…. Sure Rocky was in front of the camera so he’s gonna be seen and be the “star”…. But u are doing the beats! U gettin money off top and everyone that fuck with Rocky could be paying SPG. No, you wanna run ya mouth cuz he “stole ya swag”. SMH, wow. U wanted Raider Clan to be bigger than ASAP and it did not happen like thaaaaatt. LOL
fuck outta here with yo *Clan*
asap rocky says he influenced kanye west
Hmm didn’t this guy Rokcy actually got scared of this nobody SpaceGhostPurrp and hide behind the cops while his boy Bari tried to defend the crew, and had to catch a little beating, because he was outnumbered?
FUCK SPACEGHOSTHERRRB
Said it on the article about ASAP and SpaceGhost getting into a fight at the show in Miami. I’m a fan of both but really it only seems like Spaceghost is the one keeping the beef going, he needs to fuck off with this beef and put out another quality album.
Hey, ASAP Rocky!
Black People Can’t Be Racist!
Only White People Can Be Racist!
We live in a global system of white supremacy where every white person benefits directly or indirectly from this oppressive system of global white terror/supremacy on non-whites.
so you’re saying no black person in the world has been racist towards whites, asians, or europeans?
wtf u talkin bout only whites are racist?
i bet u a ingant ass nikka, stop wid the hatin.
plenty of racist white folk out there for sure, but got some that are cool as fuk. i kno nikkaz that be actin whiter that white people too…
racist ass nikka, stfu n gtfoh
yeah since the white meth heads that live at the end of my street are soooo privileged and benefit from shit.

STORY RAP AT ITS FINEST!!!!!
As a fan of both A$AP and Raider Klan, this interview concerns me as I have not seen Purrp or any member of the Klan hating on A$AP other than the couple of days when they announced they were no longer associated with each other. Which concerns me as I now am starting to believe that Rocky is a liar and stole the sound/image of the Klan.
You idiot, did you not hear about a few days ago? Raider Klan showed up to an A$AP show and brawled and one pussy Raider Klan fag shot a gun in the air. They also shot at Danny Brown apparently.
you obviously dont got a facebook or a twitter then nigga cuz raider klan hate on A$ap in every sentence they make

as someone that loves both a$ap and spaceghostpurrp, i really wish these two would stop the beef but it looks like it might not happen. still, mysterious phonk and livelovea$ap get plenty of rotation from me. looking forward to a$ap’s new album and new material from purrp.
Cosign.
“Long story short, Purrp went down south”
Y’all need to chill out it’s just some sexual tension
LOL
…but ASAP needs spaceghost to be Rocky
I like ASAP but Rocky is a straight bitch. Purrp is from fuckin Miami motherfucker if he was stayin at your house its because he was out there visiting and workin on music he aint fuckin homless dude you aint fuckin take him in like that. And ASAP did steal their whole style from Purrp and I like how this motherfucker doesnt mention how they jumped Purrps cousin thats why they beefin. And I like how Rocky doesnt mention how Raider Klan ran up on them at the show and they all hid in the tour bus and called the cops and Raidern Klan fucked up ASAP Bari cuz he the only one that had any balls to step to them.
i like purrp but his fans are idiots….how da fuck aap gon steal a style from purrp that aint even his? you ever heard of three 6 mafia? lord infamous specifically? yea thats spaceghostpurrps who style…these niggas need to understand that both raider klan and asap are influenced by three 6 mafia, nobody stole shit from anyone…
First of all Three 6 didnt invent that sound its just some 90s memphis shit, everyone out of memphis sound like that at the time not just triple 6. And yea Raider Klans shit sounds like old memphis shit but they still got their own sound they were obviously influenced by 90s memphis shit. And ASAP did steal their style from the music to the Raider Hieroglyphics to the way they dress. And Rocky used some of Purrps beats without askin him or payin him and stole some lyrics.
ASAP Mob is from fuckin Harlem all you have to do is look up the Get High music video to see what ASAP was really like before they started fuckin with Purrp
lol funny thing is,,,,,he grew up in manhattan my brother went to school w Rocky! Born in harlem! Racist tho! lol Comon Rocky! Rocky looks like a kid talking all of this crap.. ya shared a crib and dont have anything in common?! LMFAO ……
And Purrp is a racist? To who white people? Yea thats why hes friends with a bunch of white skater kids right? Look up Pouyo and Mike Dece, white kids that are cool wit Raider Klan and have done songs with them. Rocky is a fuckin idiot and the biggest fuckin liar.
Amen. and also Rocky talking about being good guy, NIGGA YOU backstabbed Purrp.
i like purrp but his fans are idiots….how da fuck asap gon steal a style from purrp that aint even his? you ever heard of three 6 mafia? lord infamous specifically? yea thats spaceghostpurrps whole style…these niggas need to understand that both raider klan and asap are influenced by three 6 mafia, nobody stole shit from anyone…
