Between the launch of his surprisingly viable acting career adn the birth of three children, A$AP Rocky has found plenty of time since 2018’s Testing to pretend his follow-up, Don’t Be dumb, was just around the corner. The campaign kicked up a gear last month when he unveiled the record’s visual universe, with Tim Burton behind the album art and the director’s close collaborator Winona Ryder in the “punk Rocky” video-plus another fellow Burtonite Danny Elfman on string arrangements. “Highjack,” the rapper’s 2024 track with Jessica Pratt, does not make the cut, but a new one called “The End” does. And Rocky helicoptered in a squadron of other guests too, including Doechii, Gorillaz, Thundercat, Westside Gunn, Will.i.am, and Tyler, the Creator.
