A$AP Ferg takes his talents to "The Tonight Show" with Jimmy Fallon.

A$AP Ferg continues to strive and prosper. Days after announcing the lineup to the third annual edition of "Yams Day," which features performances from A$AP Mob, Nav, Lil Yachty and more, Ferg continues his quest for mainstream ubiquity with an appearance on The Tonight Show. And while his demeanor may have you fooled, Jimmy Fallon actually seems inclined to bring in more underappreciated hip-hop guests; after all, his house band is one of the rap game's greatest groups of all time. Needless to say, Ferg hit up Fallon for an intense performance of "Plain Jane," off his previously released Still Striving album.

In the clip, Ferg is decked in a leather ensemble, killing the stage without any backing track required. It's cool to see the Mob's mainstream presence extending beyond Rocky, especially when Ferg's live energy is this solid; in fact, he's reminiscent of an early-day Busta Rhymes. It's honestly pretty impressive, considering late-night show rap performances can generally be hit-or miss. Seeing Ferg turn in an entertaining performance here bodes well for anyone thinking of catching the "Mad Man Tour," which kicks off on February 28th, 2018. To make matters even crazier, Ferg will be joined by the Aquarius Killa himself, Denzel Curry, and the underrated IDK. For a complete list of tour dates, catch the link below.

Check out the clip now. Unfortunately for fans of the Nicki Minaj assisted remix, Ferg is on the solo tip for this one. Still, if you liked Still Striving, you'll be proud to see the A$AP general holding it down for the late night crowd.
