General Interest Long.live.a$Ap (Deluxe Version) Long.live.aAp (Deluxe Version) (2013-01-14)Long. Live. AAP is the critically acclaimed debut album from American rapper AAP Rocky. The album features guest appearances from Schoolboy Q, Santigold, OverDoz, Kendrick Lamar, 2 Chainz, Drake, Big K.R.I.T., Yelawolf, Danny Brown, Action Bronson, Joey Badass, Gunplay, AAP Ferg and Florence Welch. Review Rakim Mayers aka AAP Rocky has been hailed as a harbinger of a new era for hip hop, an avatar for a new aesthetic. When his Live.Love.AAP mixtape appeared in late 2011, the narcotic lushness of Michael Volpe aka Clams Casinos production and the narcissistic posturing of Rocky did indeed seem game-changing. Well, if Long.Live.AAP, his long-awaitedsome might say dangerously delayeddebut album proper, represents a radical break with hip hops past, its mainly in the sonics not the lyrics. The best tracks have the blurry, codeine-stunned sound that Volpe brought to bear on that mixtape. Surprisingly perhaps, only a couple of the tracks hereLVL and Hellare Clams affairs, although some of the other producers do replicate his trademark touches. An album-long team-up between AAP and Clams might have resulted in the masterpiece that Long.Live.AAP has been touted as (albeit mainly by AAP himself). It might also have helped to temper, or at least provide a better, prettier context for, the rappers more atavistic tendencies. PMW stands for pussy money weed, but somehow amid the aural fog Rockys declarationits all a n**** needis almost subverted. Away from the billowing, softening effect of Clams slurry sound-bed, Rockys bluster is just that: a bog-standard litany of braggadocious assertions and announcements of conspicuous consumption. There is a guilty thrill to be had from F***in Problems and the varyingly offensive explorations of the titular dilemma (too many women, too little time, that old chestnut) by Drake, 2 Chainz and Kendrick Lamar. But the expectation was for a different agenda from this 23-year-old New Yorker with extraordinary swag and a mouth full of gold (as he states on Goldie). You dont get a sense of Rocky revelling in his own considerable talent. Instead, you get a hipster propped up by name producersDanger Mouse, Skrillex (AAP's languorous menace doesn't quite work with the latter's shrill sonics on Wild for the Night)and guest artists from across a multiplicity of genres. Florence, Santigold and the usually brilliant Danny Brown do little more than tick boxes, and ultimately Long.Live.AAP fails to match its hype with a coherent trend-setting statement. --Paul Lester This link will take you offin a new window Shipping Shipping is free for all customers in Australia.
