Happy Tuesday Theme Songs From A$ap Rocky...

Happy Tuesday People! Keep repeating this mantra to yourself "I will survive this week. I have got to survive this week." Today's theme songs are all from a particular artist who I am seriously feeling in the most major of ways to end all major ways... A$ap Rocky.

For those of you who don't know about A$ap Rocky, he is a 24 year old rapper out of Harlem whose real name is Rakim Mayers (he was named after legendary hip hop artist Rakim). A$ap has been homeless, sold drugs, his brother died, etc. He has lived the life.

He's released 2 albums thus far. The first was a mixtape called Live. Love. A$ap back in 2011. It's awesome and you should listen to the whole thing. The second was his first mainstream album called Long. Live. A$ap released in January 2013. It's also awesome and you should listen to the whole thing.

You ever hear a song that is SOOOOOOO FREAKING AMAZINGLY GOOD it makes you want to like pull your hair and mush your face and go "OH. MY. GOD. This song is SICK!"? That is how pretty much everything this dude has put out makes me feel. But this song in particular is disgustingly sick. It's called Bass and it is #3 off the mixtape Live. Love. A$ap...


This one is also good. It's #2 off the mixtape...


Another good one.. #10 off the mixtape...


Now let's get into some new stuff off Long. Live. A$ap...

Of course you know this song with Skrillex. If you don't see Happy Monday! Theme Songs to Kick Off Yet Another Week...


Then of course there is this one with 2 CHAINZ, Drake, and Kendrick Lamar (who is also crazy awesome)...


But I'm sure you haven't heard this one yet... It's so dark and weird and obscure that I just don't know if people are quite ready. This is the title track off the album..


Also this one is crucial...


This last one is not on the mixtape or the album but I'm feelin it.. It's called Shabba and it's by another member of the A$ap Mob crew, A$ap Ferg. It features A$ap Rocky and the video has a special cameo made in it by none other than the legendary dancehall artist Shabba Ranks. There is an article on MTV's website that talks about just how rare this is called A$AP Ferg Explains 'Very Rare' Shabba Ranks Cameo, Frame By Frame...


There are loads more songs by A$ap Rocky that I encourage you to check out so go get your YouTube on like now!
