His lyrics deal with themes about moral decay, including promiscuity and drug use, expressed through his boastful, tempered flow. Its production features woozy soundscapes, low and mid-tempo beats, and chopped and screwed choruses. The mixtape's music incorporates stylistic and production elements of hip hop scenes distinct from ASAP Rocky's hometown New York scene, particularly Southern hip hop.
The mixtape also features guest rappers Schoolboy Q and Fat Tony, as well as members of ASAP Mob, ASAP Rocky's hip hop collective. It features production by Clams Casino, ASAP Ty Beats, DJ Burn One, and SpaceGhostPurrp, among others.
ASAP (stylized as $AP) is the debut mixtape by American rapper ASAP Rocky, who released it as a free digital download on October 31, 2011.
