A$AP FERG still striving

Next week A$AP Ferg will unleash his new project ‘Still Striving’, which comes as the re-up to 2016’s ‘Always Strive and Prosper’. Just a week ago, the A$AP Mob rapper dropped the star-studded “East Coast (Remix)” and today he returns with “Nasty (Who Dat)” featuring Migos, which draws inspiration from JT Money’s 1999 classic, “Who Dat.”

Ferg’s ‘Still Striving’ project will arrive next Friday, August 18th. ‘Always Strive and Prosper’ was pretty successful with a debut at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 chart. In its first week of sales, it moved about 35,000 units. We’ll see how ‘Still Striving’ does, but this single is a step in the right direction.
