As we look back at 2018, we've received many dope albums from a few artists we haven't heard from in a while. A$AP Rocky's finally dropped his official follow-up to 2015's At.Long.Live.A$AP this past May. The rapper's latest project is his most experimental by far -- from its roll out to the production and visuals. Today, he comes through with his latest set of visuals for "Tony Tone."
A$AP Rocky returns with the visuals for another highlight off of Testing, "Tony Tone." The rapper's new visuals were directed by Hidji Films for AWGE. The video opens up with a young A$AP Rocky celebrating his birthday before the rapper stands in front of a council. Rocky mobs out through New York City in the music video on a bike while mobbing out with his crew. A$AP Twelvyy and Smookey Margielaa make cameos in the music video.
"Tony Tone" follows the release of the "Gunz N Butter" music video with Juicy J. Rocky's also released visuals for "Fukk Sleep" ft. Fka Twigs, "Praise The Lord" with Skepta, and "A$AP Forever" with Moby.
