A$AP Rocky let us in on "ONE OF THE GREAT MOMENTS" he shared with Yams.

Yesterday was an emotional day for the A$AP Mob. For much of their existence, the group was led by A$AP Yams, whose untimely passing changed the core of the collective. No longer did they have Yams for guidance and counsel when they needed. A$AP Rocky felt his loss hard, working on new albums for the first time without his brother by his side. The figure would have been 30-years-old yesterday. Instead of celebrating with their business partner, Ferg and Rocky took to social media to share their favorite moments with Yams. 

Rocky has admitted that he's had a difficult time working on music since Yams passed away. He was always there to lend an ear and help him strive for the best sonic improvements. He remains with the Mob in spirit as Rocky shared a throwback photo of his friend on Instagram. A$AP Bari and Rocky sit in the back seat as Yams rides shotgun, casually hanging his arm out of the droptop. The Testing artist remembers the moment in great detail, writing, "THIS IS ONE OF THE MANY GREAT MOMENTS I GOT TO SHARE WITH MY BROTHERS , HAPPY BDAY GZ."

Of course, he's not the only person to have wished Yams a happy birthday. Many members of the team sent their own tributes. Ferg's was the most touching as he visited Yams' grave, pouring out some Hennessy for him.
