At. Long. Last. ASAP (stylized as AT.LONG.LAST.A$AP) is the second studio album by American rapper ASAP Rocky. It was released on May 26, 2015, by A$AP Worldwide, Polo Grounds Music, and RCA Records. The record serves as a sequel from Rocky's previous studio effort Long. Live. ASAP (2013). In 2013, the recording sessions first took place, during a release of Long. Live. A$AP. The album's executive production was provided by Danger Mouse, mentor ASAP Yams and Rocky himself, featuring production by Rocky and Danger Mouse, as well as a variety of several high-profile producers, including co-executive producers Hector Delgado and Juicy J, Jim Jonsin, FNZ, Frans Mernick, Kanye West, Thelonious Martin and Mark Ronson, among others.

The album features guest appearances from Joe Fox, Future, Schoolboy Q, Kanye West and A-Cyde, among others. The album was supported by three singles: "Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye 2 (LPFJ2)", "Everyday" featuring Rod Stewart, Miguel and Mark Ronson, and "L$D".

Background

"People wanna hear bars, they wanna hear some music, they wanna hear me rapping. I was fortunate enough to be named after one of the greatest emcees of all time. That’s like being named Michael Jordan or Magic Johnson to me, you get what I’m saying? Or Kobe Bryant or something like that. I was named after Rakim. I was intimidated because those shoes are too big to fulfill or walk in. I got to a point where I felt like I was 26 [and] I felt Rap was shit. I just hated Rap [in] 2014. I’m getting a headache thinking about it. I got to a point where I just was like, ‘I need to do something about this shit.’ This is the return of the God emcee, I’m talking some lord shit on this next album, At.Long.Last.A$AP. A-L-L-A. It’s lit."

—ASAP Rocky, interviewed by CRWN in April 2015[1]

On March 16, 2014, announcements were made for two releases; including their first instrumental mixtape, Beauty and the Beast: Slowed Down Sessions (Chapter 1), and the ASAP Mob's collaborative album, L.O.R.D. ASAP Rocky revealed that he had been working on his second album. On September 26, 2014, ASAP Mob's founder ASAP Yams announced on his Tumblr account that the group scrapped the release for their collective's album, L.O.R.D., and instead named Rocky's second album as the label's next release.[2] On October 2, 2014, Rocky announced that he signed a contract for worldwide representation with William Morris Endeavor.[3]

On January 18, 2015, ASAP Rocky's mentor and business partner ASAP Yams died at the age of 26, which greatly affected the album's development.[4] Upon ASAP Yams' death, Rocky revealed that his second album would be executive produced by himself and Yams, alongside rapper and record producer Juicy J and fellow record producer Danger Mouse;[5][6][7] as well as collaborating with artists such as FKA Twigs and Lykke Li, with the production by Clams Casino.

Title

After performing at the 2015's South by Southwest (SXSW) festival, ASAP Rocky revealed to Billboard, that the title to his second album would be A.L.L.A..[8] On March 26, 2015, in an interview with GQ, Rocky deciphered the album's title: "I'm claiming ownership of my legacy. Look at it: At.Long.Last.A$AP. A-L-L-A. Like slang for 'Allah.' It's the return of the god MC. I'm named after Rakim, and I'm finally facing what it means: I was born to do this shit. And I hope I get to do it for a very long time."[9][10]

Composition

Upon the release of the song "M's" (stylized "M'$"), Rocky revealed that he had also worked with fellow New York rapper Mos Def, as well as up-and-coming British musician Joe Fox (who is prominently featured on many tracks on the album).[11] Hector Delgado and Rocky say that they met Joe Fox while roaming the streets of London, England: "I met the man. He was a street performer. [I met him in] London. I was at Dean’s Studio until 4 a.m. I came outside and we waiting for our Uber to go to Starbucks, tired. This kid comes with his guitar and stuff. He was out there playing and stuff and he comes,” Rocky explained of his first encounter with Fox. “It was about 4 a.m. so there’s nobody in the streets. He tried to give me a CD and shit. I was like, ‘I’m not about to listen to that, man. Play something. You got your guitar.’ He played it and I was just like, ‘Stop man. Come on let’s go.’ That’s where it started."[10][12][13]

Release and promotion

Danger Mouse served as an executive producer, and contributed production on several of the album's tracks.

On October 2, 2014, ASAP Yams and ASAP Rocky posted links to their website FlackoJodyeSeason.com, and then announced that Rocky's new single would be releasing at midnight.[3] On October 3, Rocky released the album's promotional single, "Multiply" featuring Memphis-based rapper Juicy J. The song was accompanying by the music video (directed by ASAP Rocky and Shomi Patwary), which was officially released at midnight on the website, which had previously displayed a countdown timer. Upon the release, Rocky teased the release of his second studio album, which gave no further details.[14][15]

On April 8, 2015, a song that was called "M'$" (pronounced as "M's") debuted during Rocky's interview with the Red Bull Music Academy, and the song was released two days later on the iTunes Store.[16] However, Rocky denounced the song as an official single from the album.[17] The album version includes a re-worked version of the track, replacing Rocky's second verse, with a guest verse from a New Orleans-based rapper Lil Wayne. On May 7, Rocky announced that the release date for the album is on June 2, 2015.[18] On May 9, Rocky unveiled the album's cover art on his instagram page, with the caption "AT LONG LAST...."[19] On the same day, he also released the album's alternative artwork.[20]

On May 25, 2015, the album was leaked online, approximately one week before its expected release.[21][22] Rocky later tweeted to announce that the album had to be released at midnight, advancing the date to a week early.[21][22] The album was released to digital retailers on May 26, 2015, by A$AP Worldwide, Polo Grounds Music and RCA Records.[23] On August 30, Rocky performed "M'$" and "LSD" at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards.[24]

Singles

On January 7, 2015, ASAP Rocky released the album's lead single, titled "Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye 2 (LPFJ2)". The song was produced by the duo Nez & Rio.[25] The music video, which was directed by Rocky, was released on February 11, 2015.[26]

On May 8, 2015, Rocky released the album's second single, titled "Everyday". The track features guest appearances from musician Rod Stewart, American R&B recording artist Miguel, and Mark Ronson (who also produced this track as well, alongside Emile Haynie).[27]

On May 19, 2015, Rocky released a music video for "LSD" (stylized "L$D", which stands for Love, $ex, Dream). The song was produced by Hector Delgado, Jim Jonsin and Finatik N Zac. The music video was directed by Dexter Navy.[28][29] "L$D" was officially released as the album's third single on May 21, via digital distribution.[30]

At. Long. Last. ASAP received generally positive reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 76, based on 33 reviews.[32] In The Daily Telegraph, Neil McCormick called it a "big, bold, madly ambitious album" on which Rocky "made a frequently dazzling spectacle, another reminder that hip hop is currently setting the bar very high indeed".[35] Jon Caramanica of The New York Times said the rapper "doesn't absorb and repurpose his guests’ styles. He's fully formed, a rapper who understands his talent in relation to that of his peers and that of his influences, unafraid of showing you his blueprint."[43] Jon Dolan from Rolling Stone credited the producers for sustaining the album's "expensive vibe" with "a sound that's at once tough and transporting — from the gospel-steeped 'Holy Ghost' to the interplanetary ass-shaker 'Electric Body' to the Rod Stewart-sampling soul fantasia 'Everyday' (featuring Miguel). Even at his trippiest, Rocky makes sure things never swirl off in a haze of incense and peppermints, with steely lyrics that often focus on inescapable truths."[41]

Rebecca Haithcoat was less impressed in Spin, highlighting the upbeat production of "L$D", "Excuse Me", and "Westside Highway", but finding the rest of the record often "despondent".[42] Mojo reviewer Andy Cowan gave it a lukewarm assessment, writing that while "there are few lyrical miracles in these scattershot songs obsessed with sex, drugs and shopping, in this intuitive stylist's mouth the words themselves are often beside the point."[38]
