A$AP Ant can easily be considered as one of the standout members to come out of A$AP Mob, and that bold claim becomes even more clear on his latest LP, Lil Black Jean Jacket 2 (Ruby Edition).

Ant dabbles with a handful of sounds on LBJJ2, ranging from the international vibes you get on album closer "Marino Paris" alongside JMK$ or the "art rap" he paints on "Bob Ross" with help from LuLu P and A$AP Twelvyy. The subject matter is flashy as you'd expect from his days of banging with the Harlemites of the Mob, but his B-more side pops up throughout by way of thought-provoking lyrics and samples that recall musical eras from the past. Overall, if Ant is working towards being seen more as a solo star, the body of work he accomplished with Lil Black Jean Jacket 2 (Ruby Edition) is a huge step in that direction.
