Wavy Wednesdays are swiftly becoming the hip-hophead’s humpday cure: each week we are guaranteed some firsthand exposure to fire in the form of the latest tracks, and some of course some hidden gems courtesy of everyone’s favourite New York rap collective, A$AP Mob.
Last week we were treated to an elusive Danny Brown verse on a remix of Hella Hoes, which funnily enough was the reason behind Brown’s Twitter rant back in 2014 where he dissed the crew for cutting his verse. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
This week has further succeeded in providing a midweek reprieve, in the form of a new A$AP Ferg and Migos collaboration, Trap Anthem.
True to it’s name, the track delivers some sublime sonic stylings for those fiending few new trap music. Short and sweet (coming in at just over 2 and a half minutes) but high energy through and through, we are left to wonder why the self-proclaimed Trap Lord hasn’t collaborated with the ATL stalwarts more often, as Trap Anthem is undoubtedly a strong showing that only seeks to further whet the appetite for Ferg’s upcoming album, Always Strive and Prosper. The album itself is highly anticipated, and is slated for a release sometime in 2016.
As an aside, it is nice and refreshing to see a group make good on their weekly promise of music (are you paying attention G.O.O.D Music?)
If one track wasn’t enough to satisfy your Ferg cravings for this week, be sure to peep this killer cypher alongside Your Old Droog and Wiki.
