Mr. Green is back again with a new batch of tight collaborators, this time hooking up with A$AP Ferg. Read on for a statement from Green himself.
"This might come as a surprise but I like to trap music, it’s dope. I’m a boom bap dude at heart but there is something crazy exciting about trap music that i can’t get enough of. I’m not sure if it’s the sub bass, the fast hi-hats or the ridiculous chants that the artist say over and over but I’m feeling it.
When my people from VICE/Noisey told me A$AP Ferg wanted to do an episode I was all the way down. I immediately sat for a couple hours and chopped some samples I got from Chinatown and put the beat together.
A couple days later me, Sam and the crew headed uptown to Polo Grounds studio to meet Ferg. He was mad cool. We immediately hit it off and started talking about growing up riding bikes and how the bmx/skate worlds overlap into hip hop and the music industry. It kind of felt like I was talking to one of my friends I grew up skating with and not some mainstream rapper/celebrity dude. He did a couple crazy verses and a hook about riding bikes and then we took off.
Ferg and I have a mutual friend Nigel Sylvester (who I know through Animal Bikes) so, while i was making the track, I met up with him. We recorded some bikes sounds and then I threw them in the mix.
Finally, we checked out Animal Street jam in Newark and got a bunch of dope footage.
Shout out to Gabby, Nigel, Vice/Noisey, Ferg and the whole A$AP Mob, Animal Bikes, Ralph Sinisi & everyone that attended the 2014 Animal Street Jam in Newark."

this beat is crazy. ferg hit the nail on the head when he was talking about how original it is for you to use sounds from the natural element around you..
thanks homie, I appreciate it
This is so awesome, I'm stoked on all the BMX stuff. You killed it Green!
thank you sir, you know i love BMX shit
This shit hella hard bruh
yaa dawwwggg
The #Livefromthestreets album is one of my favourite album. I really started listening to it after i heard about you from R.A and your #Unpredictable album which is also one of my favourite album! Met you in Gotenburg when you were on tour with AFRO and R.A and bought a CD of livefromthestreets after talking too you abit and got hyped up for it (had only heard the youtube previews here beforehand) On my 320 miles drive home after the show i listened to it and it was super dope! Ended up buying a Livefromthestreets hoodie from your shop and loving it too! Was really just about to cop the vinyl aswell now when i saw your IG post :)
#LIvefromthestreets also introduced me to alot of new artists i havent really listened that much too, such as Benefit, Jus Allah, Pacewon and really thanksfull for that!
Cant wait for the next one to drop and hear aobut the Sean Price song you told me about!
Peace
This is the most original track I've heard all year! No one has ever done something like this before, hats of to these guys I totally didn't expect him to arrange the instruments the way he did.
timbaland used a baby wine good beat bit that concept has been done before
WanTonSupeEater haha yeah I know I was being sarcastic, I just didn't really like the track I didn't think it was very original haha
dope as fuck
damm this video is so fresh with the fire beat and ferg rapping with the bikes wish i could upvote it a hundred times
Favorite show on the web. respect
BMX is the best.

Skateboarding imo haha. But this is dope. I'm liking the bmx scene a lot more these days
damn i can't believe some people don't fuck with this. keep doing ya thing Noisey x Mr. Green, this shit hella dope!
fuccck the instrumental is raw .... literally raw
I'm not even a big trap fan but this is smooth a.s.a.p. on beast mode. Mr. Green always fresh.
This is one of the better things I've heard Ferg do in awhile. It's simple yet real good.
the rough riders vest is one of the most popular down here in south tx.

shouts to the banditos
I saw ASAP Ferg and Waka Flocka in Austin Texas at a sigma chi round up party. Front row with crutches and a boot for a fractured foot, dopest show I've been to.
Coming back and remembering being at that animal jam in Newark was so lit !!!
♾Live From the Streets🏁, is the purest thing to happen to
HipHop🎛🗣🔊🎤🎼🎶🎵📲🔛👂🔥🎧🔥
since Tu-Pac, Notorious B.I.G & breakdancing , REAL TALK💯
The beat was a bit raw and unfinished but for me the idea and concept of how the final thing came together saves it - especially the images of kids riding through the streets that had a mad nostalgic feel to it hit a button!
Im hyped for what ever trap lord is gonna put out next
Me and you both dawg
you ready two years later?
How about 5 years later
Wow, this goes so hard! I had no idea Ferg was into bmx, so dope.
I feel like Green is taking this web series in a new direction. I'm not sure whether I'm into it yet or not, but we'll see in the next few episodes. So far I'm not too impressed. However! Mr. Green is known to come with the bangers, so I'll stay tuned for the time being.
i like this track so much more just bc how organic it proved to be
mad ups

The shit they're calling 'beats' nowadays sucks ass.
That s new era rap so shut up the beats r alot better than oldschools
10105twentyfive i hope you're just kiddin
Columbus * times change homie.
How?... if anything beats have progressed. Yeah, there are alot of stupid trap beats that are unoriginal, but some actually feel authentic and mulitlayered as opposed to the boom bap era (not saying I don't love and respect it) but times change, sounds progress. everyone can't have simple 808s and hi hats as the onyl part of the beat because it has been done before numerous times. where is the innovation in that?
times changed mh, well this doesn't mean that new is better, and means that i'll keep supportin all those that make dope ass old school beats
DAMN SON!
daaaaamn
