The second coming of A$AP Rocky is approaching and he’s dishing the details on his upcoming project, titled A.L.L.A. In a recent interview, he revealed the meaning behind the title.
“I’m claiming ownership of my legacy,” the Harlemnite told GQ. “Look at it: At.Long.Last.A$AP. A-L-L-A. Like slang for ‘Allah.’ It’s the return of the god MC.”

The 26-year-old said he drew inspiration for the album title from his government name.
“I’m named after Rakim, and I’m finally facing what it means: I was born to do this s###,” he said. “And I hope I get to do it for a very long time.”
A.L.L.A does not have a set date but Rocky is planning for a summer release. Juicy J and the late A$AP Yams executive produced the album, which Rocky says is done.
