    A$AP Ferg thinks that he is the baby featured on his father’s Bad Boy Entertainment logo.

    A$AP Ferg explained in an instagram post

    “What a lot of people don’t know is that my father created the Bad Boy logo. Diddy and my pops was 2 kids running round Harlem with a dollar and a Dream. I used to see this logo in my fathers screen printing shop as a kid and always thought I was the baby in the logo I mean who else would it be? My first tour Puff congratulated me on my accomplishments and commended me for making it this far!!! We talked on a the phone for bout a hour before my set. Long story short it was only right I got the chain!! Gave it to me straight off his neck!!! Always love!!! Bad boy/Asap family #R.I.P.D-Ferg”

    Stream A$AP Ferg's new album "Floor Seats"

    A$AP Ferg has finally released his highly anticipated new project, Floor Seats, and it does not disappoint in any way. This project is very short and to the point; at 9 songs, it is full to the brim with energy and diversity, and does not sound too bulky or repetitive as a lot of newer rap albums tend to sound. The instrumentals on this project are super cool and unique; most songs on the record have a heavy and distorted trap feeling to them, but they also are very retro New York sounding as well.

    A lot of the instrumentals have melodies and horns that remind me a lot of songs by Jim Jones or 50 Cent in the early 2000s. This album is full of great features as well; A$AP Rocky, Rico Nasty, Asian Doll, Ty Dolla Sign, Brent Faiyaz, and MadeinTYO all provide excellent contributions to Floor Seats. This is not a record that you will want to miss! Check out A$AP Ferg’s new album Floor Seats below right now!
