Tyler the Creator gave his pal and rapper A$AP Rocky a gleeful taunt after he was caught jumping straight into the crowd at the live performance.
A$AP, 33, made headlines at the New York Mets’ Rolling Loud pageant, where he launched French Montana and GloRilla for a stunning look on Saturday night’s show.

The rapper, who turns out to be Rakim Mayers, performed on the Style Nova stage, which he said could be his last performance before the release of his upcoming album.
To this day, A$AP is determined to join the group, but the crowd gets too enthusiastic and starts scratching at the rapper, eventually being dragged away.
In June 1971, in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England, Peter Gabriel of Genesis broke his ankle while completing a musical performance.
In February 2014, a decision that led the American rock band Fishbone should pay a girl with a fractured skull and collarbone during a 2010 Philadelphia show when frontman Angelo Moore jumped off the stage .
In Saturday’s Efficiency video, which has gone viral online, someone can be heard shouting “Get him out, get him out” and A$AP appears anxious before the 10-second clip is cut.
However, people started taking screenshots of the rapper’s horrified face, which soon turned into a meme.
Even his pal Tyler the Creator, 31, changed the profile picture on his Instagram account to a photo of the troubled A$AP in a mosh pit.
Followers responded to the second on Twitter, writing: “Taylor is crazy about this.”
Another tweeted: “TYLER DID ASAP ASAP ROCKY SO DIRTYY,” while a third commented, “@tylerthecreator Truly a profile photo legend of the year! ! “
A$AP’s creepy mosh pit seconds were the least of his worries as he apologised to followers for his stay being cancelled.
“I’m hurting right now! The last need is for my lodging exhibits to turn from previous to new!” he tweeted.
“I will be fully responsible for the circumstances that led to the last night’s gifts, and none of this was.”
The rapper added: “I also need to admit that while I’ve spent months going element by element to get the perfect gift for my followers…
“Sadly, I was not able to access my imagination and foresight, so I was hurt and I need to apologize to all my followers and staunch supporters and thank you for showing me!!”

A$AP has indicated that he may be releasing a brand new album soon, and confirmed that his appearance on Rolling Loud may be the last time he will stay on the scene until it comes out.
“I’m wrapping up this brand new album now. I shot a lot of visuals for it. I don’t need to be a cliché or sound like a salesman, but I’m pushing my limits in every way,” he says dazed.
“From this industrial, disruptive voice test [his 2018 album] Then it ends with a more refined sound… I’m similar to where it is.
Shortly after A$AP’s statement, it was revealed that his colleagues and the mother of his 34-year-old, 4-month-old son Rihanna are likely to host the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show on the Internet.
Almost three years ago, she turned down the possibility of participating in the 2020 NFL treatment of former San Francisco 49ers contestant and 34-year-old civil rights activist Colin Kaepernick.
In 2016, he began playing the national anthem in NFL video games to protest police brutality and racial injustice.
Kaepernick’s actions have divided the NFL and are credited with causing him to leave San Francisco, and he’s been struggling to sign another employee.
Shakira and Jennifer Lopez finally co-head the 2020 Super Bowl halftime show.
Rihanna’s music label Roc Nation introduced headlines for 2023, calling her “probably the greatest female artist of all time.”
Super Bowl LVII will be played at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona on February 12, 2023.
