Watch Playboi Carti And A$AP Rocky Light Up The FADER FORT

A fun Texas surprise from A$AP Mob.

March 15, 2017

Playboi Carti electrified the crowd during his Wednesday afternoon set at The FADER FORT in Austin, Texas. Frequencies rose even higher when he was joined onstage by crew affiliate A$AP Rocky for a killer performance of their 2016 collab, "Telephone Calls."

They both bodied the stage donned in circular sunglasses that wouldn't be out of place in a Mad Max movie.

The pair performed multiple songs together.

And Carti played some new material, too.

It was lit.

Watch above, and tune into the livestream at TheFADER.com/FORT to watch performances in real time, March 15-18.
