At Paris Fashion Week, A$AP Rocky dazzled with his style but dodged questions about his delayed album, “Don’t Be Dumb.”
While Paris was buzzing with fashion, A$AP Rocky was making waves for more than just his outfit. In a playful exchange, he skirted around the much-anticipated release date of his album “Don’t Be Dumb.” Laughing, Rocky joked, “Don’t do me like that… They on my head, bro, ’cause of questions like that.” His lighthearted response left fans both amused and still guessing.
In a previous chat with GQ, Rocky offered a more substantial update. He revealed that the album was in the “mixing and mastering” phase. However, he acknowledged that fans might be weary of continuous updates. “People are tired of hearing about updates,” he confessed. “They’re just ready to get this shit… I promise I got some new shit in store.”
Rocky emphasized the album’s completion but expressed a desire to surprise fans rather than make promises. “The album’s done. I just want to drop it,” he stressed, indicating his eagerness to share his new work with the world.
“Don’t Be Dumb” was initially slated for release last August, then postponed with an unspecified fall date. Unfortunately, it remains unreleased, keeping fans on edge for over a year now. This album will be his first in six years, following “Testing,” which received mixed reviews in 2018.
Recently, a fresh snippet of a track featuring a Metro Boomin beat surfaced, sparking interest. In it, Rocky addresses his recent legal battles with the lyrics, “I wear Armani to court, your honor/Look like John Gotti in court, your honor.” Whether this track will make the final cut remains uncertain, but it indicates Rocky’s readiness to move forward post-trial.
Despite playful banter and vague updates, A$AP Rocky’s fans are left eagerly anticipating “Don’t Be Dumb,” hoping that his promises soon become reality.
