A$AP Rocky has once again addressed his long-awaited project Don’t Be Dumb. This time, he was stopped by Instagram fashion account The People Gallery and asked directly when he was planning to finally drop the album.
“Don’t do me like that,” he replied with a smirk on his face. “A$AP. Listen, don’t make me do that right now, man. You gon’ get me beat up out here, bro. They on my head, bro, ’cause of questions like that. I can’t even… I gotta go right now.”
Back in June 2024, the Harlem rapper announced an Aug. 30 release date, even going as far as to release a trailer. However, he decided to delay the album, and although he didn’t give an official reason, he was in the middle of preparing to stand trial after being charged for allegedly shooting a former friend Relli in 2021.
While he eventually beat those charges after a three-week trial, there’s still no official release date in sight, but he did tell GQ that he was putting the finishing touches on it. “I’m in the mixing and mastering realm of it,” he said. “But I think quite frankly, people are tired of hearing about updates about the album. They’re just ready to get this sh–, you know what I’m saying? I don’t think anybody wants to hear where I’m at with it, how far is it along and all that.”
In other Rocky news, he was recently appointed as the creative director of Ray-Ban.
