A$AP Ferg - Thought I Was Dead (Single)
A$AP Ferg’s new single “Thought I Was Dead” is a bold, introspective comeback that silences doubters and reclaims his place in the rap game. The track opens with a haunting, energetic beat from the likes of Lex Luger, Mike-Will-Made-It, Truebeatzz & Lifted that immediately sets the tone for Ferg’s gritty delivery. His verses hit hard as he addresses the rumors surrounding his absence, making it clear that while he may have stepped back, he’s far from finished.
Lyrically, Ferg speaks to the mental and emotional state he’s been in, choosing to “reboot” rather than “restart,” signaling growth and transformation. He doesn’t shy away from confronting the naysayers but instead uses their assumptions as fuel. His flow remains sharp and unpredictable, a reminder of the unique cadence that propelled him to stardom. Sonically, the production is dark and aggressive, matching the intensity of Ferg’s rhymes. The beat switches and ominous undertones complement the theme of rebirth. The hook, though simple, lingers, with Ferg confidently proclaiming that he’s back and better than ever.
“Thought I Was Dead” feels like a statement. It’s not just about proving his relevance but about showing a renewed sense of purpose and fire. Fans who’ve been waiting for his return will appreciate the energy and honesty of this release, as it positions Ferg for an exciting new chapter in his career.
