A$AP Not So Rocky!
RnB/Hip Hop | Thursday 7th June 2012 | Osh
Everybody knows how sacred jewellery is to a rapper; it's nearly as important to them as the air they breathe. Most rappers would find choosing between attending a relatives funeral & seeing their jewellers’ new collection a hard decision! They are willing to spend thousands and thousands of pounds in order to stunt to fellow rappers and also to show how rich they are.
From a young age, my mother has always said to me “if you can't afford to lose it/ damage it, then you shouldn't buy it/ wear it”. If only A$AP Rockys mother had said the same thing to him at an earlier stage of his life. The young rapper born and raised in concrete jungle Harlem in New York had to learn the hard way. During his performance in London, a watch worth around £15,000 was snatched from his wrist, the rapper refused to return to the mic until the watch was back in his possession. The culprits who took the watch from A$APs wrist whilst he was greeting the crowd, were eventually found and received a beating I'm sure they will NEVER forget!
Whilst the thieving fools were being delivered the beatings of their lives, A$AP is seen cheering on his goons. Peace was restored when ‘Paso’, one of the rappers hit singles was played.
A$AP UK tour has only just kicked off; I highly doubt he'll be bringing out anymore bling bling during remaining performances.
