Rakim Mayers known for his stage name Asap Rocky, he is a new wave rapper, who has become one of hip hops new greatest stars. He incorporates his love for high fashion and his native harlem style into his songs. Rakim had a rough beginning growing up between harlem and the bronx in and out of shelters with his mother, his father in and out of jail and his brother was killed on his block all at the age of 12. This tough start inspired him and gave him the drive to take rapping seriously and become an icon in the rap industry. His chance came finally when he joined Asap Mob and was given the name Asap Rocky! His music is inspired by a lot of old school hip hop artist such as Mob Deep, Wu Tang Clan, Three 6 Mafia and more !
