A$AP Rocky has finally released his fourth studio album Don’t Be Dumb on January 16, 2026, marking his first solo LP in nearly eight years since 2018’s Testing. The album arrives through AWGE, A$AP Worldwide and RCA Records and has been one of hip-hop’s most anticipated releases, breaking pre-save records with over 1 million Spotify pre-saves ahead of launch, the most ever for a hip-hop album. Don’t Be Dumb features a star-studded lineup of collaborators across its tracks, including contributions from Tyler, The Creator, Doechii, Brent Faiyaz, Gorillaz, Westside Gunn, Thundercat, will.i.am and others, with production by names such as Pharrell Williams, Mike Dean, The Alchemist, Madlib and Danny Elfman.

The project expands on Rocky’s creative ambitions with an eclectic sound and distinctive visuals; the cover art was designed in collaboration with filmmaker Tim Burton, adding a cinematic feel to the rollout. The album includes previously released singles like “Punk Rocky” and “Helicopter$” alongside a full tracklist that has fans engaged across streaming platforms and physical formats, including limited-edition vinyl. The release caps a long buildup that saw delays, previews, and creative teases, and positions Don’t Be Dumb as a significant moment in Rocky’s career as he returns with a richly layered, highly collaborative body of work.
