      Blair Jones You do know that all questions in a interview have to be personal right?

    • @mirocleeko69
      @mirocleeko69 6 років тому

      because he personalized the question, which is what you need to do when you have his qualities.

      Before that he also told her to ask anything so telling her that she’s nosey after he told her to ask anything is pretty odd. 🤔

      theres so much truth and wisdom in this interview its so sad that it only has 50k views but its also special because out of a billion people 50k saw it. but in the end not a lot of those 50k will recognize the importance of this interview and how successful u can be in live if u put what he says into practise either active or passive..

      @mejiamike28 6 років тому +68

      Kampsy People might define a "role model" as someone who is smart, sober, well spoken, etc. So A$AP is a role model in his own way. No fucks given, doing what he loves and making that $$$. I hope that's what he meant lmao.

    he ain't being a douche at all. people have positive and negative days and he seems to be really tired and high. go watch a few videos he's being mobbed by paps in and he's still being nice and taking his time to give a decent answer.
    i like how he's always at eye level with the person he's talking to even though it could be the opposite.
    in fact rocky is a very intelligent and nice person but it always depends on the counterpart

    His behaviour was a defense mechanism because a lot of the answers to her questions prompted exposure/vulnerability.
    And a lot of the questions were highly controversial on private opinion politics and morals.

    "Don't ask me about shit like that on camera."
    "You know better than that."
    That fuckin attitude was just so aggressive yet calm. He was disappointed in her and showed it while still being showing respect and staying civil. Love that shit

    This interviewer was framing politically correct questions as and artist that's a big no because it forces you to put your career in jeopardy so rocky flipped the narrative and made her job harder.

    • @jonnil1997
      @jonnil1997 6 років тому +1

      Trap Soul wtf artist should be politicall especially hip hop, many of his very succesfull contemporaries like Kendrick Lamar, Kanye West, Beyonce or whatever are constantly making politicall statements, cuz they actually give a shit about important issues.

    • @PerocDisgusting
      @PerocDisgusting 6 років тому +14

      Jonatan Nilsson Rocky is not Kanye Kendrick or Beyoncé tho, if he has opinions but wants to keep them to himself , wtf are you going to do?..beat it out of him?this interviewer was working at an angle, If he doesn't wish to speak on political matters rn that's him, doesn't mean he doesn't have opinions on them

    I don‘t see how ppl criticize Rocky for just one unnecessary interview, you can‘t say his personality is bad because he doesn‘t give the answers ppl expect. Even though he was high and tired he still was friendly while others would‘ve been rude to an interviewer asking odd questions that‘ve been asked a lot before. It‘s true that he could‘ve answered them better but just wasn‘t in the mood for it.

    @gremlin0890 6 років тому +17

    Reading these comments and watching this interview, people talking about his attitude/mood/being high etc. Gotta remember not every interview is gonna go great. Sometimes the artist just doesn't vibe with the interviewer. But also, hes in a completely different time zone of the world. All these things factor in to how well an interview goes.

    • @bigkeemy1
      @bigkeemy1 6 років тому +2

      I was thinking the same thing. He's normally a lot different in most interviews so I claim to the conclusion that an individual isn't always going to be in a great mood during an interview due to simple factors.

      no.. did you not notice how right out the gate lou was trying to force him into this political box? i'm currently 1min35sec and you can already tell how aggressive she's being and how rocky wants no part.. WHY THE FUCK THIS INTERVIEW EVEN HAPPEN

      maison marson at 1:35 she asked him about raf simons? Is that political? But anyway why not ask about politics, Rocky has mentioned black lives matter and he has talk about homophobia, he has worn feminist t-shirts, why not ask about it and let him elaborate? Even when she asked non politicall questions he gave bad answers.

    Just got done watching the other show studio with travis and oh my goodness they look soooo similar with these angles. Rocky kinda sounds like trav with his cadence and tone here as well. Blows my mind, they were definitely separated at birth.
