January 18th, 2015 will mark the four year anniversary since the tragic passing of A$AP Yams. Since his death, A$AP Rocky and co. have honored his name with their annual Yams Day festival. The festival took place at the New York Expo Center in the Bronx last year. However, the Mob is doing things bigger in 2019 and taking the show to Brooklyn's Barclays Center.

Yams Day 2019 is roughly a month away and the A$AP Mob has shared some details surrounding it. For the first time, they'll be taking the show to the home of the Brooklyn Nets, The Barclays Center. The concert will be taking place on January 17th, a day before A$AP Yams death date. The line-up for the 2019 edition of Yams Fest was partially revealed; A$AP Rocky, A$AP Ferg, A$AP Twelvyy, A$AP Ant and A$AP Nast will be hitting the touch. Additionally, Ski Mask The Slump God -- who appeared during Lil Yachty's set last year -- will also be performing. The line-up is subject to change, but it seems very unlikely that anyone from the Mob will drop out.

Yams Day is now included in A$AP Rocky's itinerary for his "Injured Generation" tour which kicks off at the top of 2019. The rapper will be launching the tour in Minneapolis on Jan. 8th before concluding everything in Miami on Feb. 17th.

Keep your eyes peeled for the rest of the line-up. Presale tickets are available now. Cop them here. Password is "ALLSMILES."
