A$AP Ferg’s Trap Lord has been one of the oft-delayed projects of the past year, but now, with a seemingly concrete release date (August 20), Ferg is beginning to build momentum in anticipation of the highly-awaited debut. Fresh off the success of his first solo record, “Work” from the Lords Never Worry mixtape and its subsequent remix, A$AP Ferg releases “Shabba” featuring his crew chief A$AP Rocky. The song namedrops dancehall musician Shabba Ranks over reasonably menacing production. Its relentless pace is ferocious and both MCs kick bars that compliment the other’s style. If this is the caliber of music we can expect from A$AP Ferg, he has a promising career ahead of him. Listen to “Shabba” below and cop Trap Lord August 20.
