A$AP Ferg said a prayer for forgiveness (Fergiveness?) early in his set, presumably for arriving on stage 10 minutes late. But it could have just as easily applied to most of his performance, which reaffirmed that (a) witch house beats don’t work in the sunlight and (b) Ferg isn’t nearly as versatile as his buddy Rocky. Two further incidents drove home that point. First, Ferg performed Rocky’s Skrillex collab “Wild For The Night” sans Rocky, and the crowd immediately lit up. Not only was that song designed specifically for an outdoor warm-weather party environment like this — Ferg has no equivalent song — it also showcased a level of craft that wasn’t present on the trap-by-numbers forehead slaps Ferg and the rest of the Mob has been slinging. “Wild for the night/ Fuck being polite “is so much more clever and memorable than “I got hoes/ I got hella hoes.” Second, Rocky himself appeared to perform a new song (watch it here), emanating star power in ways Ferg can’t match and spitting wonderful nonsense like “Even in my will/ Keep it trill.” He singlehandedly saved an otherwise embarrassing display and made it abundantly clear why he was the first of his crew to break through. (Still loving that “Hood Pope” though.)
