[New York, NY – November 8, 2013] Hot off the heels of winning the 2013 BET Hip Hop Perfect Combo Award for “F**kin’ Problems,” A$AP Rocky’s chart-topping single featuring Drake, 2 Chainz and Kendrick Lamar, has been certified Double Platinum by the RIAA in the U.S., Platinum in Canada and Gold in both Australia and New Zealand. Additionally, “Wild For The Night” featuring Skrillex and Birdy Nam Nam has been certified Gold in the U.S., Canada and New Zealand.

Both songs are featured on A$AP Rocky’s A$AP Worldwide/Polo Ground Music/RCA Records debut album LONG.LIVE.A$AP, which entered at #1 on Billboard’s Top 200, Hip-Hop Albums, R&B Albums and Digital Albums charts in January.  The album also made Top 10 chart debuts in 24 countries around the world and is currently Gold in Canada.

With an album that stretches geographic and sonic boundaries, A$AP Rocky has reached several milestones in his burgeoning career. Earlier this year, the star-studded track and video “F**kin’ Problems” won a 2013 BET Award for Best Collaboration and was nominated for Best Hip-Hop Video at MTV Video Music Awards.  In addition to the BET Awards win, Rocky received nominations in the Video of the Year, Video Director of the Year, Best Male Hip-Hop Artist and Viewer’s Choice categories.  In 2012, Rocky was nominated Best New Artist at the BET Awards and his stylish “Goldie” visual was nominated for Best Editing at the MTV Video Music Awards. Rocky also earned himself two MTV Europe Music Awards (EMA) nominations - US Artist About To Go Global and Best Look, for his impressive sense of fashion, as highlighted on the covers of Interview, Complex and Vogue (Italy) magazines.

Not one to rest on his laurels,  Rocky and his partner Yams released the first album from their A$AP Worldwide label – A$AP Ferg’s rambunctious Trap Lord, which debuted at #2 on Billboard’s Rap Albums chart and earned Ferg the Who New? Rookie of the Year trophy at this year’s BET Hip Hop Awards.  Up next is the highly anticipated A$AP Mob album, slated for release early 2014.

The hard-working MC, who recently debuted his brand new video "Angels" (featured on the deluxe version of LONG.LIVE.ASAP), will rejoin Rihanna’s “Diamonds World Tour” as a special guest on November 14^th at Houston’s Toyota Center and November 15^th at New Orleans Arena.
