A$AP Nast speaks to SSENSE Magazine.

In an exclusive interview for SSENSE Magazine, A$AP Nast discusses what its like to be a rapper for the new millennium, the communal listening habits that define us, and the style that took him worldwide.
The 26-year-olds grunge-inspired music taps into the soul of ultimate teenage angst to create work that represents the magic that is the future of hip-hop.
Nast, who is the cousin of ASAP Rocky, said: “Being a rapper is just being who you are. It’s not who I woke up and said I wanted to be.”
