“I just wanted to make a posse cut of the century,” Rocky says of the record. “Something came to me and told me to pick each individual. I don’t know why, but I just wanted to keep it underground and make the posse cut that hasn’t been heard in a long time.”
In response to the long wait for his Long.Live.A$AP album, Rocky says:
“I wanted to wait for the hype to die down. There was too much hype and it was almost like make-believe.” Rocky goes on to say, “I don’t want to give away all the hype shit – fuck all the hype – it’s about the substance.”

Rocky even touches on his feelings on Jay-Z:
“I appreciate what Jay-Z is doing for hip-hop because he’s not only showing us how to be entrepreneurs, but how to also be a family man.”
