"A$AP Rocky has launched his latest campaign to convince fans that the much- delayed will actually be released soon, this time by sharing cover art designed by none other than Tim Burton. The artwork arrived on Instagram with a message referring to Don't Be Dumb as a movie: "SORRY 4 THE WAIT DON'T BE DUMB FINALLY HERE! THANKS TIM BURTON FOR HELPING ME MAKE THIS MOVIE! COMING SOON." Check it out below."
"Rocky has been teasing the follow-up for years, first sharing the current title in late 2022. Since then, he has shared new music for Highest 2 Lowest-the recent Spike Lee movie in which he stars alongside Denzel Washington-and, before that, the Jessica Pratt-featuring " Highjack" and a single called " Taylor Swif," which came with a quirky video shot in Ukraine shortly before the Russian invasion."
A$AP Rocky launched a campaign sharing Tim Burton–designed cover art and an Instagram message presenting Don't Be Dumb as a movie and promising a forthcoming release. Rocky first revealed the album title in late 2022 and has released music connected to film and other projects, including a contribution to Spike Lee's Highest 2 Lowest, in which he stars alongside Denzel Washington. Earlier singles include 'Highjack' featuring Jessica Pratt and 'Taylor Swif,' whose video was filmed in Ukraine shortly before the Russian invasion. The new album features Tim Burton collaborator Danny Elfman, who scored multiple songs. Rocky cites Burton's matte painting and German expressionism influences.
