ASAP Rocky is back and ready to shake up the rap game with his highly anticipated album, Don’t Be Dumb. The Harlem-born rapper recently set Rolling Loud California on fire, dropping a sneak peek of what’s to come—including a track that throws shade (or does it?) at some of hip-hop’s biggest names.
In the song, Rocky raps: “I ain’t on J. Cole, I ain’t on Drake, I ain’t on Kendrick [Lamar’s] side.” This cryptic line has fans buzzing—does it mean he’s staying out of the rap beef, or is he subtly stirring the pot? Either way, hip-hop heads are paying attention!
When Is ASAP Rocky Dropping Don’t Be Dumb?
The road to Don’t Be Dumb hasn’t been smooth. Originally slated for an August 2024 release, the album faced delays due to sample clearance issues and leaks. But in a recent interview, Rocky confirmed he’s in the final stages of mixing and mastering, hinting that the album is just around the corner.
“I think people are tired of hearing updates,” he admitted. “They’re just ready to get this sh*t.” And honestly, we couldn’t agree more.
Star-Studded Features & Fire Production
Rocky isn’t playing when it comes to this album’s lineup. Don’t Be Dumb boasts collaborations with J. Cole, Jessica Pratt, and production from hip-hop heavyweights like Pharrell Williams, Tyler, the Creator, Metro Boomin, The Alchemist, and Madlib. With a lineup this stacked, it’s safe to say this project is going to be a game-changer.
Why Don’t Be Dumb Could Be Rocky’s Biggest Album Yet
ASAP Rocky has always been known for pushing creative boundaries, and Don’t Be Dumb is shaping up to be his most ambitious project yet. With the hype around his Rolling Loud performance and the mystery surrounding his lyrics, fans are more eager than ever for the drop.
So, will Don’t Be Dumb live up to the hype? One thing’s for sure—Rocky’s got something big in store, and the rap world is watching.
