« FLIP PHONE SHORTY – STRICTLY FOR DA STREETZ VOL.1 » – A$AP Ferg Returns to the Essence of the Streets

Released today, November 28, 2025, the mixtape « FLIP PHONE SHORTY – STRICTLY FOR DA STREETZ VOL.1 » is an uncompromising dive by A$AP Ferg into the raw sound of New York. Far from the Pop shine of his major singles, this project is a direct gift to Street Rap purists, affirming that even with global status, Ferg does not forget his roots.

The title evokes nostalgia for the flip phone era (a symbol of the pre-smartphone hustle), confirming the intention: a return to raw lyricism, gritty street narratives, and stripped-down Boom-Bap/Trap beats.

The Cold Sound of New York Serves the Flow

The sonic atmosphere of the mixtape is dark and urgent, focusing on flow and production coherence. The beats are designed to give space to Ferg’s versatile lyricism, who excels at alternating between his aggressive, shouting style and more technical, introspective passages.

This project proves that authenticity lies not in the most expensive production, but in the message and the execution.

An Unexpected Roster

One of the biggest surprises on FLIP PHONE SHORTY is its cast of guests, which demonstrates Ferg’s reach and respect beyond typical genre lines:

The presence of French Montana and Gucci Mane cements the album in classic contemporary Trap, offering characteristic narratives of opulence and survival.

Denzel Curry brings his ferocity and unique technical flow, representing the current rap vanguard, while Big Boss Vette provides fresh, hard-hitting energy.

The mysterious rapper Lil B (The BasedGod) adds an unpredictable and cult touch to the project. Furthermore, the invitation extended to Japanese rapper Awich is a powerful sign of Ferg’s global ambition, even on a street-focused project, underscoring that the influence of street rap knows no borders.

A Brilliant Gift for the Real Ones

« FLIP PHONE SHORTY – STRICTLY FOR DA STREETZ VOL.1 » is a breath of fresh air. It is the sound of a liberated Ferg, who proves he can still dominate the rawest beats while forging unexpected connections. It is a powerful, effective, and honest mixtape, and anticipation for Volume 2 has already begun.
