A$AP Ferg is one of the hottest new rappers out. Apparently, hotter than he even thought. Ferg won the award for 'Who New? Rookie of the Year' at this year's BET Hip-Hop Awards. Only the Harlem rapper wasn't there to receive it. The A$AP mob member recently ran into ThisIs50 and revealed that he wasn't there to accept his award because he had no idea he would wind up hearing his name called. "I didn't even know I was going to win," he said, "that's why we weren't there. I got caught up doing some other stuff. I wish I was there to accept my first BET Award."

He added, "I felt like I was one of the greats. It's just proving it to everyone else now."
