A$AP Rocky is continuing to stay on the rise after releasing his highly anticipated album, Long.Live.A$AP On the album’s opening week, it sold more than 139,000 copies and landed in the No.1 spot on the Billboard 200.

During an interview with Life+Times, he spoke on the album’s response so far. He touches on the comment Tyler, the Creator made about his single “Fucking Problems” over Twitter, his album leaking a month early, and whom he’d like to collaborate with in the future.

Read some excerpts from the interview below. Head over to Life+Times for the whole thing.

On Tyler, the Creator's criticism on Twitter:

He has his opinions and he’s entitled to them, so it’s whatever. Hell no, I’m not tripping over what Tyler, The Creator said. I’m Jiggy.

On the leak of his album:

At first. A lot. I can’t lie. But then when I started seeing the great responses I was like… “Fine!” We still got to number one. My mom thought that the leak would affect the sales and if I’m honest, it did affect sales but how do you still manage to be number one? It leaked over a month early too. That’s fucking crazy! It just goes to show people really fuck with ya boy out here. My mom downloaded the album illegally by the way.

On who he wants to collaboration with:

I used to date Teyana. She’s my ex. And A$AP AV used to date Azealia. But yeah I don’t know because I think people expect that. People expect us to work together and I want to do the unexpected. There’s 16 tracks on the album, eight are solo and eight are features. But they’re organic. It fits for me. That’s the only reason why I did them. I didn’t want to do something that made it feel like I was forcing it. I didn’t want to compromise or settle, I just wanted everything to be organic. That’s why I worked with the people I respected creatively. I want to collaborate with Jessie Ware. That’s going to happen. Also MGMT. I’d love to work with Adele.
