A$AP Mob Turns Yams Day Into the First-Ever Yammy Awards

A$AP Mob found a way to keep Yams Day alive on January 18, 2021, even with the world still dealing with the pandemic.

Instead of the packed celebration fans had become accustomed to, the group took the event online and transformed it into the first-ever Yammy Awards, honouring the life and influence of the late A$AP Yams.

The night opened with an emotional message from Yams’ mother, who returned to the streets where her son’s dreams had started. From there, the celebration moved through old footage, interviews, and performances from members of the A$AP family.

Then came the awards, with fan favourites like Lil Baby, Young Thug, and Lil Durk receiving recognition across several categories.

Watching the celebration unfold online, it was clear that the format had changed, but the feeling behind Yams Day had not. The night remained about family, friendship, music, and remembering the person who helped turn a Harlem vision into a global movement.
