While we are still waiting on one of the A$AP Mob’s marquee members to deliver their album, another one of them fulfilled their promise. This weekend, A$AP Ferg put out his first record in four years with DAROLD, and it’s clear that the New York rapper was finding himself again. The Trap Lord penned a heartfelt and inspiring message to his fans on IG while hyping up the project. He talked about how he rediscovered his passion for painting and found a nice balance for this tape’s themes and messages. “Creating my first album “Trap lord” was an outlet for me being a young black man in the hood facing daily adversities. At one point I even felt like a “lord that was trapped.” Reflection led me to becoming more “Hood pope” the enlightened one but I found balance in just being “Darold.”
It’s pretty impressive how well A$AP Ferg was able to translate that idea into this album, and it shows through tracks like “Demons.” This Denzel Curry collaboration is the perfect embodiment of balance. Overall, it hits hard both in the whip and mentally speaking. The haunting synths and expressive background kid vocals add to the theme about shapeshifting demons that Ferg and Curry are dealing with. For them they come in the form of death, drugs, social media, and familial issues. The ambiguity allows for some clever wordplay, and they take full advantage of it. It’s another homerun from Ferg and Curry and we hope their relationship translates to a collab tape one day.
Goin’ through drama created the trauma That shit that’ll make you a demon Psychological warfare, digital bots (Uh) Algorithm on the Instagram (Woo), I’m seein’ nothin’ but thots Demons that’s scared of the block (Block), I got to carry the Glock (Glock, yeah) My uncle was a fiend (Fiend), he was married to the rock, huh
Though he has not released an album in some time, Ferg has kept busy with singles and features. The former A$AP Mob member is seemingly on a mission to prove that he can still be a viable artist on his own, and “Thought I Was Dead” is a direct response to his detractors. The track, co-produced by Lex Luger, Mike WiLL Made-It, and a handful of other names, is a banger. It sounds like something straight out of the mid-2010s, with a big bass and energetic 808s. Ferg flows over the production with a similar energy.
Ferg is lyrically on point as well, delivering brash and boastful lines in a way that fans have come to expect from Harlem rappers. He takes aim at his haters, talks about losing friends, and even takes a moment to call on Sony to begin renegotiating his record deal. The second verse is completely flex-laden, with the bulk of his criticism going to “broke” people before talking about his grind to get to where he is today. Ferg’s last single, the Future-assisted “Allure,” briefly made headlines after fans theorized that Future was taking some subtle digs at Gunna. “Thought I Was Dead” has no such controversial lines, but it is still worth your time. No album has been announced yet, but based on Ferg’s increased output, it is probably not too far away. Stream the new single below.
Hold up, wait a minute, let me talk my s**t (Uh, right) Lot of broke n****s talkin’, they ain’t talkin’ about s**t (Uh, yeah) I ain’t never been a p***y, I ain’t worried ’bout a b***h (Uh, right) Busy gettin’ paper, tryna keep my uncle off the bricks (Uh, yeah) Showin’ my a** like Ye on a boat T Ferg done had yay on a boat Lambo, what I get paid for a show Livin’ that life I ain’t gotta post (Uh)
Following the success of his recent single “Allure” featuring Future and Mike WiLL Made-It, multi-talented hip-hop artist FERG keeps the momentum going with the release of his latest track, “Thought I Was Dead.”
Released via RCA Records, “Thought I Was Dead” kicks off with a triumphant symphony of horns, transitioning into a powerful trap beat. The accompanying visual, co-directed by FERG and Sage English, showcases FERG adorned in white angel wings, biking through the streets of Harlem. The video cuts between energetic shots of the artist and intimate visuals of his family and community, symbolizing his return to the spotlight.
The single is part of FERG’s upcoming album DAROLD, which will be released on Friday, November 8. The project, his first since 2020’s Floor Seats II, offers an intimate look into FERG’s life, exploring his past, present, and future.
After such a long hiatus from two of the A$AP Mob’s biggest stars, it is great to see them back in action this year. In terms of A$AP Rocky, he is presumably dropping his long-awaited album DON’T BE DUMB on August 30. His fourth studio tape will end a six-year drought and will be the follow-up to 2018’s TESTING. As for A$AP Ferg, aka FERG, he has been active on the singles and features front in 2024. He made his return a little over a month ago with the YouTube exclusive release, “MDMX”. Since then, the “Shabba” lyricist has gone on to put out two more solo cuts and features for Trae Tha Truth and Denzel Curry. However, FERG is showing that he does not intend on slowing down anytime soon as he drops off “FERG STRONG”.
This single came out of nowhere, as the New York native announced it on his Instagram alongside a intense workout video. FERG along with some close friends are getting a full body pump at a local park it appears. “FERG STRONG” perfectly embodies that visual, as the record is extremely intense and aggressive from beginning to end. The beat, provided by tweektune, is loud but not over the top. The drum pattern, rumbling 808s, and swirling synths create a fire environment for FERG to roam in. In typical fashion, he brings various cadences and loads of energy. Hopefully, “FERG STRONG” gets a wider release. However, he seems content with keeping it limited. Right now, you can find the banger on Soundcloud and YouTube. The latter is provided below so go run it up.
A$AP Ferg had the whole internet talking about his sudden return. About three weeks ago, the Harlem, New York rapper put out a YouTube-only single called “MDMX”, but his full stage name was not attached to it. Instead, it was chopped down to just FERG. This then led to an onslaught of theories and speculations that he was not a core member of the A$AP Mob. There have been a lot of reports online that he indeed was not a part of it and that he still remains with them. However, the real truth is that FERG is his solo stage name when he is not releasing anything affiliated with Rocky and the crew.
FERG announced it through Roc Nation back in 2021, saying, “Ferg is very much still part of the Mob, and is A$AP Ferg within A$AP Mob. Ferg as an individual artist and with his solo career is Ferg”. So, with all of that cleared up let us jump into this new single, “More Than U Know Freestyle”. This is the third YouTube exclusive track and a follow-up to “Roemello” just five days ago.
This also comes after his guest appearance on a new Trae Tha Truth album single called “Rock Out”. FERG delivered a memorable and zany performance, showing that he is not just your typical trap/pop rapper. On this scant two-minute freestyle, the veteran gets reflective and introspective about his career over a soulful sample flip and hard-hitting kick drums. When he wants to get into his more lyrical side, just know that he can do it at any moment.
What are your thoughts on “More Than U Know Freestyle” by FERG? Is this the best song that he has released in the last few weeks, why or why not? Do you think that he is gearing up for a new album soon? How do you feel about the name change to FERG? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding A$AP Ferg (FERG). Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.
Trae Tha Truth does not the credit he deserves for being a standout voice in the Southern hip-hop scene. With so many legends, especially from Houston (where he is from), his name does not get brought enough. He is not a hit song writer, but he is able to create these luxuriously smoky bangers with ease. That trademark style has taken him a long way, as he is now over 20 years deep into his career.
Recently, Trae Tha Truth dropped off a new single, “Rock Out”, which provides a hazy environment right from the jump. Joining him on this spacey cut is A$AP Ferg, or FERG. Surprisingly, this is the first time that we are hearing these veterans on the same record. Their approach to creating tracks is different. However, it is not to the point that sticking them on the same beat does not make sense at all.
Listen To “Rock Out” By Trae Tha Truth & A$AP Ferg
In fact, FERG brings an incredibly wavy performance on “Rock Out” which fits the vibe to a tee. His “Rooocckkk outtt” background vocals add so much extra character to the instrumental as well. Furthermore, his flow and cadence are incredibly playful and carefree. All in all, this song is a total banger, and it looks to be the lead single for Trae’s next record, Crowd Control. Fans can expect it to drop sometime this summer.
What are your thoughts on “Rock Out” by Trae Tha Truth and A$AP Ferg? Does this lead single get you hyped for Trae’s forthcoming album Crowd Control? What is your favorite aspect of it? Who had the more memorable performance and why? Are you surprised this is only their first song together? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Trae Tha Truth. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Kanye Westis making headlines yet again. Following a recent rant where he made derogatory remarks about the Jewish community, the rapper/entrepreneur has since issued an apology.
Sorry 2024
In a surprising move, Kanye West took to his Twitter (X) account on Dec. 26 to address the Jewish community, delivering an apology in Hebrew. Expressing sincere remorse, he stated:
“I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst caused by my words or actions. It was not my intention to hurt or disrespect, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused.”
Ye further emphasized his commitment to personal growth, acknowledging the need to learn from this experience and foster greater sensitivity and understanding moving forward.
The apology sparked varied responses from users on X. One user, @ykkswb, humorously commented, “BRO USED CHATGPT,” referring to the unconventional choice of the Hebrew language for the apology.
Another user, @NFT_GOD, “I appreciate you for apologizing but I just don’t understand how you go from such an unbelievably extreme position a week ago to apologizing the next.”
Pushed Back Again?
The Chicago native’s apology follows Ye’s controversial rant at a listening party for his forthcoming joint album with Ty Dolla $ign, Vultures. In the heated discourse, Ye expressed frustration toward industry figures for disrespecting him and questioning his capabilities.
Furthermore, he made derogatory comments about the Jewish community, claiming their excessive influence and control across sectors like banking, education, and healthcare. In other news related to Ye, the release of the Vultures album has faced multiple setbacks.
Originally scheduled for December 15, the album’s release date was pushed back to December 31. However, it is now expected to be released on January 12, 2024, according to recent updates.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign’s Joint Album ‘Vultures’ Has A New Release Date
Kanye Westand Ty Dolla $ign’s highly anticipated joint album, Vultures, recently faced another setback. However, a new release date has been announced, sending fans into a frenzy.
Good News
Kanye and Ty Dolla $ign’s Vultures, initially scheduled to drop on Dec. 15, missed its expected release, disappointing fans. However, the title track, featuring Chicago rappers Bump J and Lil Durk, was not only released as a teaser for the delayed project but also accompanied by a new release on New Year’s Eve.
One reason for the delay is the sample clearance issue surrounding the track “Everybody.” The song features a sample from the Backstreet Boys‘ 1997 hit, “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back).” Additionally, a sample from Nicki Minaj for the song “New Body” was also not cleared in time, contributing to the album’s postponement.
Fans Frustrated
The delayed release sparked mixed reactions from fans on Twitter (X).
Some expressed skepticism and frustration, expecting more date changes, while others voiced their disappointment, uncertain if the album would ever see the light of day.
One user named @ImTheStew commented, “Be ready to change that date again lol,” while one other user named @iamslickrick_ added, “This s*it not coming out.” The postponed album is expected to bring together an impressive lineup of artists, including Freddie Gibbs, Lil Baby, Offset, Quavo, Future, Charlie Wilson, and more.

Kanye West Goes On Heated Rant: Mentions Jay-Z & More At ‘Vultures’ Listening Party
Kanye West has made headlines again with a fiery rant at a listening party for his upcoming joint album, Vultures, with Ty Dolla $ign. The event took an unexpected turn when Ye went off on a tangent, mentioning Jay-Z, Zionists, and even Adolf Hitler.
Ye Sounds Off
During the morning of Dec. 15, Ye went on a rant at the Las Vegas listening party for his album, Vultures, which was broadcast on influencer YesJulz’s Instagram Live.
The controversial rapper took the opportunity to express his frustrations and grievances, targeting various individuals and groups. One of his main targets was his former business partner Adidas, whom he accused of attempting to “cancel” him:
“Y’all ain’t stop that Adidas s**t,” Ye said in part. “Y’all n*ggas let Adidas crash the richest n*gga of all time. I put up one tweet and then Ari Emanuel put, ‘Oh we gotta drop this n***a,’ and all n*ggas just watched. The only n*gga that had the Trump hat. The only n*gga that went and got them billions. The only n*gga that break through all kinds of ideas in fashion. I’ve been called a f**got so many times for tight jeans. I got n***as from Chicago that I take care of that still try to sell me.”
Kanye West goes off for 10 mins name dropping Jay-Z, Drake, Travis Scott, Balenciaga and Addias to name a few then says everyone in the room with him is fake stream ended when he kicked YesJulz out the room (she was recording) safe to say vultures is scrapped. pic.twitter.com/kFchoDdbRV
In addition to his grievances against Adidas, Kanye West delved into a range of topics during his rant. He proclaimed himself as one of the most influential figures in the world, confidently stating:
“Jesus Christ, [Adolf] Hitler, Ye. Third party, sponsor that.”
The “I Love It” rapper went on to express his belief that Zionists control significant aspects of the world, including hospitals, schools, banks, and other industries.
During his verbal tirade, Ye also name-dropped rappers such as Jay-Z and Drake, expressing disappointment over their lack of support throughout the years. He vocally called them out, saying:
“Who you think the old man call? When we put Drake on stage, who you think the old man call? You know what I’m saying. N*gga, just ’cause I had a car, n*gga. Fuck everybody, n*gga.”
Ye Expresses More Disappointment
Notably, Kanye West also revisited his previous controversial comments about Jewish people made in October 2022. He expressed his disappointment that no Black celebrities defended him during that time, stating, “Not one n**ga stepped up.”
The reaction to Ye’s rant on social media was divided. Some users praised his honesty and perceived truthfulness, while others criticized his disjointed and self-centered delivery. One user, @Steph_Lyon13, commented, “Ye the truth… y’all ain’t gonna see it, but hey, not everyone gotta be awoken.”
However, another user, @Kev_Campbell, dismissed the rant as narcissistic and unsuitable for any meaningful argument. The listening party itself faced disruptions, with the event being shut down at a Las Vegas warehouse and moved to a hotel suite.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign’s Italy Show Uncertain Amid Controversy and Permit Issues
Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s highly anticipated joint concert in Italy may not be happening as previously planned. The event, which was supposed to take place on October 27 at RCF Arena, has faced several obstacles that now cast doubt on its occurrence.
No Show?
Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign fans may be disappointed. Their highly anticipated joint concert in Italy may happen differently than planned.
According to Billboard, the concert was never officially confirmed, and the concert stage has been dismantled. Ye has returned to the United States with his wife, Bianca Censori, indicating that the show may no longer be going ahead.
The controversy surrounding Ye is believed to be one of the reasons why the concert has been thrown into uncertainty. His past social media rants, labeled anti-Semitic, have sparked backlash from local feminists and anti-fascist associations in Italy.
Permit Issues
These groups have raised objections to his presence in the country and likely contributed to the complications surrounding the event.
Furthermore, the concert venue, RCF Arena, has encountered permit issues, which have hindered the construction of the stage. It has been reported that necessary permits were not obtained by the mid-October deadline, thereby stalling the preparations for the show.
As of now, Ye or Ty Dolla $ign have yet to address the status of their joint album or if they plan to reschedule the show in the United States or elsewhere.

Kanye West Reportedly Returns To The Studio Amid Multiple Album Leaks

Ye Back In The Studio
After a music hiatus and multiple leaks, Kanye West still finds himself in a “great head space” and has been recording constantly, according to a TMZ Exclusive.
One leak was the 35-minute visual album for DONDA, which West released in 2022 as a tribute to his late mother. Another leak was an entire album called Jesus Is King II, which featured a collaboration with legendary producer Dr. Dre. These leaks have spurred West to get back into the studio and create new music, seeking to reclaim his artistic vision.
Reports suggest that the Chicago native’s Jesus Is King II features an impressive lineup of star rappers, including A$AP Ferg, Travis Scott, Ty Dolla $ign, Anderson .Paak, Eminem, and Thurz. The leaked information prompted one user on social media to comment, “It sucks that this whole thing was leaked, but I hope the music is fire.”

However, another user, @Kev_Campbell, dismissed the rant as narcissistic and unsuitable for any meaningful argument. The listening party itself faced disruptions, with the event being shut down at a Las Vegas warehouse and moved to a hotel suite.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign’s Italy Show Uncertain Amid Controversy and Permit Issues
Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s highly anticipated joint concert in Italy may not be happening as previously planned. The event, which was supposed to take place on October 27 at RCF Arena, has faced several obstacles that now cast doubt on its occurrence.
No Show?
Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign fans may be disappointed. Their highly anticipated joint concert in Italy may happen differently than planned.
According to Billboard, the concert was never officially confirmed, and the concert stage has been dismantled. Ye has returned to the United States with his wife, Bianca Censori, indicating that the show may no longer be going ahead.
The controversy surrounding Ye is believed to be one of the reasons why the concert has been thrown into uncertainty. His past social media rants, labeled anti-Semitic, have sparked backlash from local feminists and anti-fascist associations in Italy.
Permit Issues
These groups have raised objections to his presence in the country and likely contributed to the complications surrounding the event.
Furthermore, the concert venue, RCF Arena, has encountered permit issues, which have hindered the construction of the stage. It has been reported that necessary permits were not obtained by the mid-October deadline, thereby stalling the preparations for the show.
As of now, Ye or Ty Dolla $ign have yet to address the status of their joint album or if they plan to reschedule the show in the United States or elsewhere.

The controversy surrounding Ye is believed to be one of the reasons why the concert has been thrown into uncertainty. His past social media rants, labeled anti-Semitic, have sparked backlash from local feminists and anti-fascist associations in Italy.
Permit Issues
These groups have raised objections to his presence in the country and likely contributed to the complications surrounding the event.
Furthermore, the concert venue, RCF Arena, has encountered permit issues, which have hindered the construction of the stage. It has been reported that necessary permits were not obtained by the mid-October deadline, thereby stalling the preparations for the show.
As of now, Ye or Ty Dolla $ign have yet to address the status of their joint album or if they plan to reschedule the show in the United States or elsewhere.
