ASAP Rocky shares huge update for long-awaited album “Don’t Be Dump.”
After several delays, it looks like ASAP Rocky is finally close to putting out his long-awaited new album “Don’t Be Dumb”. The rapper took to his social media to share an official artwork, which is designed by legendary film director Tim Burton.
“SORRY 4 THE WAIT DON’T BE DUMB FINALLY HERE! THANKS TIM BURTON FOR HELPING ME MAKE THIS MOVIE! COMING SOON,” Rocky wrote on social media along with the artwork. Tim Burton is likely to direct music videos for the project, or an accompanying short film or a full-length movie. “Sooo f*-kin proud!!!! LETS GOOOO BABY,” wrote Rihanna under comments. “Next level flex, I respect it!!” wrote Pusha T.
Last year, Rocky teased Burton’s collaboration in an interview with Billboard. “I sat and I played the album for Tim Burton, and he was f–king with it heavy… He was rocking his head and was like, ‘Wow! I didn’t know you made that kind of music!’”
“I love Tim Burton, man. I’ve been inspired by him [since] a child,” he told Vanity Fair earlier this year. “I think what he does with claymation and how he transcended into live-action movies, the parallels between them and [how] he seamlessly included it from matte painting to German Expressionism. I think he’s a f–king genius.”
The long-awaited new album is ASAP’s fourth studio album, and first since 2018’s “Testing”. He previously dropped singles like “Pray4DaGang” featuring KayCyy, “Ruby Rosary” featuring J. Cole, “Tailor Swif”, “Highjack” featuring Jessica Pratt from the album.
