Asap Ferg was born in Harlem, New York. His father sold fashionable clothes in the local boutique and draw logos for various music recording labels.

At the same time, Asap Ferg had a school friend, another popular rapper, Asap Rocky. The boys rapped together just for fun and it was Rocky, who inspired Ferg to make career of a musician. Together the boys entered the band Asap Mob. Both the rappers took their stage nick names from the band name.

In 2016 Asap Ferg released his second studio album “Always Strive and Prosper”, which actually means abbreviation “ASAP”, which is used by both, Asap Ferg and Asap Rocky as their monikers.
