History



Formation and early beginnings (2006–2012)


In 2006, Steven Rodriguez, professionally known as A$AP Yams, formed the collective with fellow New Yorkers A$AP Bari, A$AP Kham and A$AP Illz.[2] Harlem rapper A$AP Rocky joined later.[2] In the summer of 2011, the group released music videos for Rocky's singles "Peso" and "Purple Swag," produced by A$AP Ty Beats. Rocky followed up with his mixtape Live.Love.A$AP in October,[citation needed] signing a record deal with Sony Music Entertainment that month.[6][7]

In January 2013, A$AP Ferg signed a joint venture deal with RCA and Polo Grounds, which released his single "Work" for retail on iTunes.[10] An official remix of "Work", featuring Rocky, French Montana, Schoolboy Q and Trinidad James, followed.[11]

Rocky's debut album Long. Live. A$AP, was released on January 15, 2013,[12] debuting at number one on the Billboard 200 chart, with first-week sales of 139,000 copies in the United States.[13]

A$AP Ferg announced that A$AP Mob would release their debut album after the release of his solo debut album Trap Lord,[14][15] on August 20, 2013.[16] The album peaked at number nine on the Billboard 200 and number four on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, with first-week sales of 32,000 copies in the United States.[17] In November 2013, A$AP Rocky announced that A$AP Mob's debut album would be titled Lords.[18] On December 4, 2013, the album's first single, entitled "Trillmatic."[19] The album title was then changed to L.O.R.D.[20][21] On January 13, 2014, the single "See Me" by A$AP Ant was released.[22]

On September 26, 2014, A$AP Yams revealed that L.O.R.D. had been shelved.[23]

On January 18, 2015, A$AP Mob revealed that A$AP Yams had died[24] of acute mixed drug intoxication.[25] On October 15, 2016, A$AP Rocky confirmed that the group's compilation album Cozy Tapes Vol. 1: Friends was completed.[26] Dedicated to A$AP Yams, the album was released on October 31, 2016, and featured several artists, including Playboi Carti, Skepta and Tyler, The Creator.
