Via Vice’s music channel Noisey, watch below the first of a five-part series called “SVDDXNLY,” documenting the come up of Harlem-raised rap artist ASAP Rocky aka Rakim Mayers. Part one looks back at his youth so we see interviews of his Mom (now we know who he got his charisma from) and sister, plus Rocky explaining why he became a rap artist and how he experienced his first New York concert appearances. Rihanna, one of his early mentors, also makes an appearance.
