A$AP ROCKY’S ANXIOUSLY AWAITED ALBUM DON’T BE DUMB OUT JANUARY 16

Multi-hyphenated artist, entrepreneur, actor and fashion icon A$AP Rocky announces that his anxiously awaited fourth studio album DON’T BE DUMB will be out January 16 via A$AP Worldwide/RCA Records. DON’T BE DUMB is Rocky’s first album in 8 years, driving unprecedented global demand from fans.

The cover art, shared on Tuesday via socials, was created by visionary filmmaker and illustrator Tim Burton in collaboration with Rocky.

“I loved working with an artist like Rocky – it was a great collaboration. He spoke to me about his alter egos and I just drew my interpretations of them. He told me he wanted to make being a dad cool again, which was beautiful, even though I’ve never been able to achieve that myself.” — Tim Burton

This album comes on the heels of a massive year for Rocky, in which he served as co-chair of the 2025 Met Gala, was announced as the creative director for Ray-Ban, and was appointed as Chanel’s new house ambassador. Rocky also performed a groundbreaking set at both this year’s Lollapalooza and Camp Flog Gnaw, previewing what is to come on DON’T BE DUMB.
