A$AP Mob's motto, "Love Over Riches and Death" -- "L.O.R.D." for short -- was supposed to drive their collaborative album, which has now been shelved. The phrase lives on, though, in A$AP Twelvyy's latest single "LORD." The track features production from Buda Da Future and GrandMuzik on the production side and lyrically explores the struggle that comes with having fame and riches.
"It's love over riches and death/ I swear to God I love my niggas to death/see my niggas the best, we grind every day, never give it rest," he raps on the hook.

As HotNewHipHop points out, Twelvvy has a new mixtape on the way; however, this track won't be making an appearance. No word yet on when he plans to release the solo project.
Meanwhile, is fellow Mob member A$AP Rocky is prepping the release of his highly anticipated new album At. Long. Last. A$AP or A.L.L.A. Yesterday, it was revealed that the effort is slated for a May 12 release. Rocky dropped his latest single "M's" last week, which is expected to appear on the album. New material has slowly been surfacing from the Harlem rapper over the past few months. He unveiled the music video for his single "Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye 2" earlier in the year and dropped "Multiply" late last year.
The album was recorded at both Red Bull Studios in London and at Sound Factory in Los Angeles. The full LP will feature the likes of Lykke Li, FKA Twigs, Pimp C, Juicy J, Clams Casino and potentially others according to an interview with Billboard. A$AP Yams, who died of an accidental drug overdose, will be listed as an executive producer on the album alongside Danger Mouse and Juicy J.
