Cocaine Pentagrams and Codeine Dreams: “Wassup” 14 Years On

A$AP Rocky has never skimmed on visuals. When Wassup landed in 2012, it didn’t just extend the lo-fi, grainy aesthetic introduced in Purple Swag, it crystallised an era. Tumblr-ready and purple-soaked, the video translated Clams Casino’s codeine-dreamy production into slow-motion psychedelia, Harlem street mythology and fashion that would define Pretty Flacko’s mainstream breakout following the critical success of Live. Love. A$AP.

To bring the vision to life, Rocky teamed up with VICE, co-directing alongside then Global Editor Andy Capper. Capper recalls first encountering Rocky through Peso: “Somebody sent me the Peso video and I got obsessed with it… I was in love with this kid without meeting him.” A meeting quickly followed, and the collaboration came together organically. “It was 100 per cent fun and easy… I just made his vision come to life and added a thing or two.”

Rocky arrived with a cinematic blueprint drawn from five films: Scarface, Belly, Enter the Dragon, The Warriors and Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory. On a “barebones budget,” Capper distilled each reference into iconography: “Scarface was the bathtub of dollars, The Warriors was the morning shots by the bridge, Enter the Dragon was the mirrors.” Even Willy Wonka found its way in, arguably through excess itself.

One of the video’s most infamous images - the cocaine pentagram - emerged almost accidentally. Influenced by Peter Beste’s True Norwegian Black Metal book lying around the VICE office, Capper remembers: “There was a lot of cocaine flying around Brooklyn at that time.” The symbol sparked endless comment-section conspiracy, but as Capper notes dryly, “I just know that the pentagram had people talking about how Rocky was in the Illuminati.”

Looking back, Capper says Rocky’s trajectory was obvious. “Rocky’s star quality cannot be underestimated. He had immeasurable aura.” 14 years on, Wassup remains a time capsule, before the myth calcified, when chaos, creativity and belief collided. RIP Yams. Long live A$AP.

Cocaine Pentagrams and Codeine Dreams: “Wassup” 14 Years On

A$AP Rocky has never skimmed on visuals. When Wassup landed in 2012, it didn’t just extend the lo-fi, grainy aesthetic introduced in Purple Swag, it crystallised an era. Tumblr-ready and purple-soaked, the video translated Clams Casino’s codeine-dreamy production into slow-motion psychedelia, Harlem street mythology and fashion that would define Pretty Flacko’s mainstream breakout following the critical success of Live. Love. A$AP.

To bring the vision to life, Rocky teamed up with VICE, co-directing alongside then Global Editor Andy Capper. Capper recalls first encountering Rocky through Peso: “Somebody sent me the Peso video and I got obsessed with it… I was in love with this kid without meeting him.” A meeting quickly followed, and the collaboration came together organically. “It was 100 per cent fun and easy… I just made his vision come to life and added a thing or two.”

Rocky arrived with a cinematic blueprint drawn from five films: Scarface, Belly, Enter the Dragon, The Warriors and Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory. On a “barebones budget,” Capper distilled each reference into iconography: “Scarface was the bathtub of dollars, The Warriors was the morning shots by the bridge, Enter the Dragon was the mirrors.” Even Willy Wonka found its way in, arguably through excess itself.

One of the video’s most infamous images - the cocaine pentagram - emerged almost accidentally. Influenced by Peter Beste’s True Norwegian Black Metal book lying around the VICE office, Capper remembers: “There was a lot of cocaine flying around Brooklyn at that time.” The symbol sparked endless comment-section conspiracy, but as Capper notes dryly, “I just know that the pentagram had people talking about how Rocky was in the Illuminati.”

Looking back, Capper says Rocky’s trajectory was obvious. “Rocky’s star quality cannot be underestimated. He had immeasurable aura.” 14 years on, Wassup remains a time capsule, before the myth calcified, when chaos, creativity and belief collided. RIP Yams. Long live A$AP.

Guarda le Storie di Instagram in Segreto

Il Visualizzatore Storie Instagram è uno strumento facile da usare che ti permette di guardare e salvare le storie, video, foto o IGTV di Instagram in modo segreto. Con questo servizio puoi scaricare contenuti e goderteli offline ogni volta che vuoi. Se trovi qualcosa di interessante su Instagram che vorresti rivedere più tardi o vuoi vedere le storie restando anonimo, il nostro Visualizzatore è perfetto per te. Anonstories offre una soluzione eccellente per mantenere la tua identità nascosta. Instagram ha lanciato per la prima volta la funzionalità Storie nell'agosto 2023, che è stata rapidamente adottata da altre piattaforme per il suo formato coinvolgente e tempestivo. Le storie permettono agli utenti di condividere aggiornamenti rapidi, che siano foto, video o selfie, arricchiti con testo, emoji o filtri, e sono visibili per solo 24 ore. Questo limite di tempo crea un forte coinvolgimento rispetto ai post normali. Oggi, le storie sono uno dei modi più popolari per connettersi e comunicare sui social media. Tuttavia, quando guardi una storia, il creatore può vedere il tuo nome nella loro lista di visualizzatori, il che potrebbe essere un problema per la privacy. E se desiderassi navigare tra le storie senza essere notato? Ecco dove Anonstories diventa utile. Ti consente di guardare contenuti pubblici su Instagram senza rivelare la tua identità. Basta inserire il nome utente del profilo che ti interessa e lo strumento mostrerà le sue ultime storie. Funzionalità del Visualizzatore Anonstories: - Navigazione Anonima: Guarda le storie senza apparire nella lista di visualizzazione. - Nessun Account Necessario: Visualizza contenuti pubblici senza registrarti su Instagram. - Download dei Contenuti: Salva qualsiasi contenuto delle storie direttamente sul tuo dispositivo per un uso offline. - Guarda i Punti Salienti: Accedi ai punti salienti di Instagram, anche oltre la finestra di 24 ore. - Monitoraggio dei Repost: Tieni traccia dei repost o dei livelli di interazione nelle storie per i profili personali. Limitazioni: - Questo strumento funziona solo con account pubblici; gli account privati restano inaccessibili. Vantaggi: - Privacy: Guarda qualsiasi contenuto su Instagram senza essere notato. - Semplice e Facile: Nessuna installazione di app o registrazione richiesta. - Strumenti Esclusivi: Scarica e gestisci contenuti in modi che Instagram non offre.
