Rather than get upset over first-week numbers being impacted or make outlandish demands to cease the leak, Rocky said he is confident all things will work themselves out.

“Can I keep it a hundred with you,” Rocky asked hip-hop personality Miss Info. “I’ve been waiting for people to hear this music for so d*mn long. Of course I’ve got to be a businessman but before anything, I’m an artist. The album leaked and I’m going to leave it up to my dependable label which I rely on to fix all that. That’s the business aspect. I made my art, y’all love it and that’s all I cared about and I just want to thank everybody who’s anticipated this and who is waiting.” (Hot 97)

The Harlem emcee’s new solo effort reportedly sprouted online, illegally, last week.

Sadly, earlier this week A$AP Rocky’s long-awaited LongLiveA$AP debut album leaked online one month in advance. While the move could be devastating for a new artist, Rocky’s taking it in stride. Tonight, the Harlem rapper releases the opening song off the album, which he performed recently on MTV. Produced by Jim Jonsin and Rico Love, Pretty Flacko brings his slick talk over the melodic tune filled with heavy bass. (Miss Info TV)

Unless there are any last-minute changes, the LP features nearly 20 tracks.

1. Long Live A$AP 2. Goldie 3. PMW (All I Really Need) (Feat. Schoolboy Q) 4. LVL 5. Hell (Feat. Santigold) 6. Pain (Feat. OverDoz) 7. F**kin’ Problems (Feat. Drake, 2 Chainz & Kendrick Lamar) 8.
