A$AP Rocky’s long-awaited album DON’T BE DUMB is still set to drop this year.
In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Flacko told fellow cover stars Callum Turner, LaKeith Stanfield, Glen Powell (and Jeremy Allen White, who was absent in the video) that he just worked with Danny Elfman for DON’T BE DUMB. “…[Elfman] just did my album with me that I’m putting out this year,” he shared. “He scored a bunch of the songs on my new album.”
DON’T BE DUMB will mark Rocky’s first studio album in eight years. The elusive record has been missing in action for over a year; it was initially slated for an August 30, 2024 release but was delayed to an undisclosed Fall 2024 date just a week before its scheduled drop date.
Stay tuned for an official release date.
