2 min read
(AUS) A$AP Rocky will return to Australia next February for his first ever run of headline shows taking in all major capital cities. His return comes two years after his 2013/2014 visit for festival dates including headlining Field Day in Sydney, Origin NYE in Perth as well as a one-off show at Melbourne’s Festival Hall.
A$AP Rocky’s sophomore full-length album AT.LONG.LAST.A$AP has been a huge international success since its release this May, debuting at #1 on the Billboard 200 and at #5 on the ARIA Album Chart. The 18-track release boasts an incredible list of producers including Danger Mouse, Kanye West, Mark Ronson, A$AP Yams and A$AP Rocky himself among others. It also features an impressive line-up of guest appearances (16 in total) from the likes of Rod Stewart, Miguel and Mark Ronson on ‘Everyday’, Kanye West and Joe Fox on ‘Jukebox Joints’ and ScHoolboy Q on ‘Electric Body’.
2015 has also seen A$AP Rocky feature on Selena Gomez’s international hit ‘Good For You’ which has notched up more than a million sales in the US, with its seductive video clip picking up a whopping 146 million YouTube views and counting.
Prior to kicking off his Australian tour, A$AP Rocky will see the year out with international tour dates throughout the US, UK, Europe and Canada with hip hop and rap royalty Tyler, The Creator, Danny Brown and Vince Staples. He recently made major television appearances including performing ‘Everyday’ and ‘Pharsyde’ on The Late Show with James Corden and ‘Electric Body’ with ScHoolboy Q on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
A$AP Rocky is indisputably one of the most revered rap artists of his generation and is at the absolute top of his game. His presence is a present, just to kick it is a blessing. That pretty motherf***er is coming.
