A$AP Rocky, who recently debuted his new single “F**kin Problem” here on Complex, had a candid discussion in his sit down with Hard Knock TV. Rocky goes into his past of once being homophobic before he got exposed to fashion designers who influenced his style. He also speaks on living in homeless shelters during his childhood and how his music can help people relate to his rags-to-riches story.

Later in the interview, A$AP delves into the topic of his late older brother, attributing all his success to the fact that his brother is looking out for him from above. He speaks on his recent accolades—selling out tours worldwide without an official album out—and even notes a highlight overseas of smoking some cheeba with Daft Punk and Maison Martin Margiela on his tour bus. Watch the rest of the interview above.
