The studio sessions for Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo have become the stuff of legend, documented continuously with signatures on a legal notepad, of which A$AP Rocky’s was one. Another friendly face from around that time was Tyler the Creator, the man responsible for taking the photo of Kanye that Ye turned into a mock Rolling Stone cover. Perhaps inspired by whatever the hell went down during Pablo, Tyler and A$AP have re-created a bit of that scene for us in a video for their remix to Kanye’s “Freestyle 4,†which they’ve renamed “What the Fuck Right Now.†It’s mostly Tyler snapping on the beat (which he’s previously lost his mind over), with A$AP providing a few intermittent punch lines and ad-libs.
But what they’re saying isn’t really the point here (Kanye’s original verses are nothing special either); it’s the absolute euphoria they’re demonstrating while saying it. What we’re seeing is a few close friends clowning around in the studio, literally jumping off its walls, and living without a care. (There’s even a motorcycle in the corner, just for the hell of it.) And for more on their bromance, watch A$AP’s spot-on Tyler impression below.
