During a newly published interview with BBC Radio 1Xtra’s Charlie Sloth, A$AP Rocky revealed that he plans to finish off an album started by A$AP Yams.
“[A$AP] Yams started an album before he passed and he left his notebooks and blueprints and I’m just picking up where he left up,” A$AP Rocky said. “Because me and him were gonna do the album together. He was working on a crazy album. I’m letting people know that if I do something good, the next thing I do will be have to be great.”
Later in the conversation, A$AP Rocky spoke on whether or not U.K. rappers could ever be successful in the United States.
“I don’t think if they do it in a grime way,” he says. “That’s just my opinion. I can always be wrong… I think grime belongs to the U.K. They need to find a medium and I think it’ll work, that’s just my personal opinion.
“I know how grime is perceived in the States and it’s not good,” A$AP Rocky continues. “Don’t take it from me, ask anybody. I personally love grime. If you ask somebody in the U.S. what’s grime, they not gonna know what you talking about. If they [do] know what you talking about they probably only gonna know Skepta’s name or Dizzee Rascal, that’s it.”

For additional A$AP Rocky coverage, watch the following DX Daily:
After blatantly lying on interviews about the cause of ASAP Yams death, these guys should not be permitted to discuss Yams in any way during interviews. Don’t get me wrong, I think Rocky and Ferg are good rappers. But you can’t just lie about something that will be public record within a matter of weeks and expect to retain your credibility.
Probably just doing some damage control ya know? Trying to preserve his legacy as much as possible and have people remember him in a positive light rather than another drug abusing thug rapper dies headlining everywhere. So a bunch of ignorant people could say see there ya go, they all the same shocking. No reason to have his name dragged through the mud right after his death. Personally I remember what they were saying about him more than the actual toxicology report in hindsight. So good call by the A$AP Mob there
DentalCuntLips talking about dudes ”blatantly lying”…………LMAOOOOOO, pussyboy.
