[DudeAsInCool]

A$AP Rocky is the subject of Noisey's new documentary SVDDXNLY, which follows the MC on tour. The first part is available to watch now, with the following four parts rolling out weekly.

In the clip, Rocky discusses his burgeoning stardom, the first raps he ever wrote, and Rihanna, who also makes a cameo. "I know I'm here for a purpose," he says. "That purpose is to create art. If I get recognition for it, that's a blessing." His mother and sister are also in the documentary, and attest to his potential from a young age. 

Directed by VICE's David Laven, the documentary is also set to feature cameos from Drake, Danny Brown, Kathy Griffin, Snoop Dogg, Macklemore, Jeremy Scott, and others. SVDDXNLY features unreleased music from Rocky's in-the-works album of instrumentals, Beauty & The Beast: Slowed Down Sessions (Chapter 1).
