A$AP Rocky has misled us on several occasions, making it difficult to believe that this snippet will lead to the imminent release of “DON’T BE DUMB.”
While many fans have grown weary of waiting for A$AP Rocky’s DON’T BE DUMB, it would be disingenuous to claim that we are not still eager for its arrival. Admittedly, it is quite exasperating to find ourselves here, a couple of years later, still without it. It seems as though we have experienced approximately five distinct rollouts for this project already.
Nevertheless, Rocky possesses remarkable taste and curation abilities, so we will not apologize for maintaining hope that it will be released before the end of the year. Our optimism is partly fueled by this new snippet that the New York artist has recently teased.
The snippet features a catchy, head-bopping rhythm, with the A$AP Mob member delivering his verses over a trap-influenced East Coast beat.
Captured by Kurrco, this snippet coincides with A$AP Rocky’s thrilling announcement of being the latest MC to partner with Moncler. “FROM BEING ONE OF THE 1ST IN HARLEM 2 HAVE A MONCLER 2 BEING ONE OF THE 1ST IN HARLEM 2 HAVE A MONCLER COLLABORATION, BLESSINGS & LUV!” he shared on social media.
He is infusing some DON’T BE DUMB essence into the Italian luxury fashion brand, with the tagline for this collection reading: “Don’t Be Dumb. Be Genius.” Rocky discusses this in his recent interview with GQ, along with any possible updates regarding the album.
However, he does not disclose much information.

“Do not be foolish! That is simply the guiding principle. It is the guiding principle of life at this juncture. I adhere to my own counsel regarding this matter. At least I endeavor to, in recent times. And indeed, as soon as possible for that,” he responded.
A$AP Rocky provided a somewhat analogous reply to Spike Lee during their promotional tour for their film Highest 2 Lowest. “I will simply release it, how does that sound? I will just release it. I do not wish to announce another date and let people down. Circumstances arise, unexpected events occur. I merely desire to create the ideal album and release it. I have much to express at this moment. It is complete; it has been completed. I just want to release it. Honestly, I am uncertain [if it is a nuclear bomb]. I believe it is simply my finest work to date. You know, I have put in considerable effort on it. I think you will appreciate it, OG.”
