A$AP Rocky Jokes His Long-Delayed ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ Is “Never Dropping” in New Vlog

Seven years after Testing, the rapper offers no release date as he plays off fan frustration during a People Gallery exchange.

Overview

  • In Maurice Kamara’s The People Gallery clip posted this week, A$AP Rocky says, “Don’t Be Dumb… never dropping,” then laughs and adds, “They gon’ kill us for that one.”
  • The album remains without a release date, with the last firm target having been August 30, 2024.
  • Rocky has previously cited leaks, clearance problems and his own perfectionism for the holdup, telling Complex he keeps revising to satisfy fans.
  • The quip comes the same week he received the CFDA Fashion Icon honor, underscoring his prominent role in fashion alongside music.
  • He has repeatedly teased songs at fashion events and answered queries with “soon,” and he recently said he favors legacy-building over frequent releases.
