ASAP Rocky and Jerrod Carmichael, who both have new projects either on the horizon or fresh in the rear view, linked up for a well-worth-the-read Interview magazine discussion this week.

Following April’s brilliant, country-tinged cut “Lights Out”, North London’s Zakhar is back with a new single in “Fly Away”.
