    Hey guys, just letting you know I'm gonna be testing a bunch of new techniques in my future videos. They're gonna have random vocal edits for no real reason other than just to be different, and I'm gonna have an unnecessary amount of people making guest appearances in my videos because why not. Should make for some good experimentation.

    Reviews:
    TESTING 5/25, 2018 by A$AP Rocky.
    IMO by far the best piece of artwork by Rocky. You can clearly hear the influence of him being around Tyler, Carti and Ocean but also he keeps his style and originality here in some of the tracks.
    I have been a fan ever since Bass, Palace, Purple Swag and Wassup and I can say artistically this is his best piece of work/sonically this is up to par with a project like Yeezus too.
    Only thing it missed was the hit factor/rawness we got from him in the past.
    Examples: Wild for The Night, F**kin’ problems or even a straight up bar for bar rap song like 1Train.
    I believe that if Kanye, Ferg, Tyler and maybe someone more mainstream was featured in this album and made a party banger or a song for the masses that haven’t heard Rocky before no one would be critiquing this.
    I thoroughly enjoyed this and after easily 3 listens I can say without a doubt that he has matured and made music that represents him, shit he wants to make.
    As the Album says anyway he is TESTING new sounds and experimenting, biggest downside of this project was the amount of hype and expectations but it’s still a slight 8 for me.

      Album was great. Changes being my favourite followed closely by Hun43rd French Montana's singing on "Brotha Man" really annoyed me he should've got an actual singer for that part. I understand about the hit factor song but the album's experimental I feel a track like that would break the flow of the album completely.

    Everyone keeps going in expecting some sorta non stop banger album. There are some bangers on here but there are also some songs you can vibe to and just chill out with. I don’t think there’s a bad song on the album. But I like Rocky’s voice, I say solid 8/10 to a light 9/10🔥🔥🔥

    @whoad8644 6 років тому +62

    And now, a strongly worded letter on the whole NY thang.
    Hip-hop began in the Bronx in 1973, and up until the mid-1980s, New York was virtually all of hip-hop. This dominance began to fall from totality when Ice-T, Too $hort, and NWA began rapping (as well as other regions, but Cali was the main competition) and was rendered a thing of the past in the G Funk era. The Wu Tang Clan led the resurgence of New York rap (followed by Nas, Biggie, Mobb Deep, etc), which lends credence to your claim of Wu Tang bringing in New York, for they are indeed naught to fornicate upon. Fast forward through the jiggy/bling era to 2011. NY hasn't been hot seen Dipset/Fiddy. A$AP Rocky becomes the first big face (followed by FBZ, Joey, Underachievers, etc).
    TLDR: you're both kind of right
    Great vid!
    2007 was biracial

    • @AKE2905
      @AKE2905 6 років тому +4

      I think the what rocky means when he says he put new york on the map is that he not only brought a new style of fashion rap and hip hop to new york and worldwide but he also brought a new fashion sense from his new york heritage to the outside world with new thinking

      What about Rakim? I thought he was 80s

    • @whoad8644
      @whoad8644 6 років тому +1

      He is! Though Rakim revolutionized rap, New York was already well-established, and he had two albums out by the time Straight Outta Compton dropped, so he wasn't really cementing New York any more than most of the other MCs at the time. On the other hand, Wu Tang debuted when the West Coast was in its peak (The Chronic dropped the previous year, Doggystyle dropped within two weeks, 2pac, DJ Quik, Ice Cube, Cypress Hill, and Ice T were all active...)

    I’m a Rocky fan but it got over hyped. I feel like him telling us that it was a test was him telling us to just ingest it and not to get hyped before we hear it. The album was solid, not as great as his others but it was good. At least he knows now that he has to either refine this sound or choose another.

His father, ASAP Yams, his sister and now ASAP Press.

    You can tell how much his mood has changed to be honest, he barely brags about fucking women and buying designer clothes compared to his past work. I think everything is catching up to him now, losing family, growing old and life hitting him in general with all this pressure on him to put out an album even though he might not want to (maybe due to the A$AP curse he refers to in purity) and I think he just wanted to show the world that even a man with everything still has struggles. I fucking loved the album and the new sound he is trying to work with and I'm gonna continue loving it no matter how the public have reacted to it.

    Hey, here for that "put New York on the map" thing.
    He did put New York on the map. The New York hip hop scene had been on decline for a long time since the glory of the 90s. Rocky blew up big in 2011 and many hailed him as the new king of New York and as a sort of re-incarnation of Biggie.

      He was never really a lyricist, however you can tell he's not trying to bite off people's flow on this album which you have to respect, like you didnt hear the "AY" flow once on the album and he was trying to convey stories on some of the tracks and in general just trying things out

      First man On the moon You got to at least give Rocky credit for being willing to experiment. Most rappers in the mainstream wouldn't do that.

    You've gotta give the album a few listens. I didn't really like it the first time but it pulled me in after a few more listens. He gives an early 2010s vibe and I really felt like ik what it's like to be in his shoes
    I love how he gave us Isaiah Rashad vibes

  • @bessiedeardorff361
    @bessiedeardorff361 6 років тому

    He’s not saying that he put New York on the map. What he means is that New York fell off once wu tank broke up and the state no longer had any prominence in the rap game. That line means that’ ASAP Mob and him brought New York back to prevalence
