A$AP Ferg’s charted a lot of territory over the last four years: since rising to the top of the hip-hop crop with A$AP Mob, he’s released two solo albums—2013’s auspicious debut Trap Lord and last year’s beguiling Always Strive and Prosper—that have showcased an artist unafraid to take his craft to thrilling new places. His new mixtape, Still Striving, is no different: it’s simultaneously a reflection on Ferg’s artistic journey thus far and a project that has its finger on the future’s pulse—recalling past glories while boldly exploring new and fascinating soundscapes and styles. It’s the definitive A$AP Ferg experience, and an exhilarating look at what’s to come from him too.
