A$AP Ferg teased that he would be dropping something special on his birthday, and the newly 28 year-old definitely delivered. Ferg called upon his bro A$AP Rocky and Lil Uzi Vert for the remix of ‘New Level,’ the hit single off his latest album Always Strive and Prosper.
I'm dropping something special on my bday October 20th ❤️

The remix is still as hard hitting as the original but employs some new lyrics to send a powerful message denouncing racism in our country. Ferg raps “Jim Crow is back at it” and “I’m feelin’ like f*ck the system now, cause all they do is shoot my people down.”
‘New Level’ was certified gold back in August, selling 148,000 copies while being streamed 52 million times on Apple Music and Spotify. Like the original, Future is also featured in the remix.
There’s more on the way from A$AP Mob as Rocky recently announced their collaborative new project Cozy Tapes is finally finished.
