In 2025, FERG expanded his practice beyond music into visual work and community-centered projects. The Harlem Ferg Strong 5K album run framed wellness and movement as tools for connection, an idea that later extended to global activations such as the FERG STRONG x adidas 5K in Miami and Japan

During Art Basel, he presented his paintings and premiered the short film Flip Phone Shorty, continuing to explore storytelling outside of music. He also curated a free UGG pop-up in New York, using the space to share artwork while keeping access open to the public.

Grounded in Harlem, FERG’s work throughout the year reflects an artist widening his reach while remaining invested in the communities that shaped him.
