Ten years ago, on Halloween, Harlem would birth ASAP Rocky. Offering the world the TY Beats-produced singles “Purple Swag” and “Pesos,” the energy from New York City would never be the same, from a cultural aspect.

The newest edition to the 10-year anniversary cover is Rocky saluting the late ASAP YAMS, none of which would be possible without him. Rocky has Yams’ birthmark in the same place.
