A$AP Rocky and Tyler, The Creator formed a hilarious bromance over the years despite rumors there was beef between Odd Future and the A$AP Mob. Thankfully, that's not the case and the two have toured together and delivered an endless amount of bangers. During Tyler's recent set at Ill Points Festival, he brought out Rocky on stage for a special performance of their Cozy Tapes Vol. 2 collab, "Telephone Calls" in Miami. 

The two rappers have incredible chemistry on wax as they've proven in the past on tracks such as "Telephone Calls" and "Who Dat Boy?" However, in 2018, the two appeared to announce that they had a joint project on the way titled, Wang$ap. The announcement came along with their track, "Potato Salad." 

Their appearance on stage last night was the first time since Tyler debunked theories they had a joint project together. He said that Rocky prematurely announced the project knowing they haven't even really began to work on it.

"I wish Rocky would shut the fuck up and stop always saying what he's working on 40 years before it's even a fleshed out idea," he said. "With that said, again, don't get your hopes up and be 'disappointed' because something that doesn't really exist didn't come out. That shit don't exist y'all."

Maybe we'll see a collaborative project between the two one day but it clearly doesn't seem like it's happening any time soon.
