After performing the title track off of his upcoming LP, Long.Live.A$AP on RapFiX Live last week, A$AP Rocky treats fans to the studio version of the single. Produced by Jim Jonson and Rico Love, the track is characterized by the disparity between the verse and chorus portions of the track. The noteworthy part of the song comes during the instantly memorable chorus, which sees Rocky singing the subtle melody. Overall, the song appears to be the perfect microcosm of what themes the album will hold — life, death, and most of all a man questioning both his own mortality and what impact he will leave on the world. In the end A$AP hopes that whether it be good or bad, it will be something worth talking about. Long.Live.A$AP is due out January 15, 2013.
