ASAP Rocky shares update on new album “Don’t Be Dumb”.
ASAP Rocky once again shares an update on his long-awaited new album “Don’t Be Dumb.” The rapper/actor recently sat down with GQ for a conversation between him and his “Highest 2 Lowest” film collaborators, director Spike Lee and star Denzel Washington, as part of the promo run. While they talked about the movie, the topic turned to music, which led to a discussion about Rocky’s album.
“Why you doing that, though, Spike?” Rocky joked with Spike Lee, who asked about the album release date. “The world wants to know, I’m tired of answering for you,” Lee responded. “I just want to just drop it,” Rocky replied. “You know why my album ain’t out yet? I’m doing movies with Spike Lee and Denzel.”
“I’ma just drop it, how about that?” Rocky states. “I’ma just drop it. I don’t want to say another date and disappoint people. Things happen, things pop up. I just want to make the perfect album and just drop it. I got a lot to say now. It’s done, it’s been done. I just want to drop it. Man, I don’t know [if it’s a nuclear bomb]. I think it’s just my best work yet, thus far. You know, I worked really hard on it. I think you’ll love it, OG.”
