Watch A$AP Rocky Get Arrested & Beat the Odds in Chaotic ‘Punk Rocky’ Video Starring Winona Ryder

A$AP Rocky has released the official music video for his new single “Punk Rocky,” a chaotic and genre-blending visual that dropped Monday and stars actress Winona Ryder. The video, which Rocky co-directed with Folkert Verdoorn and Simon Becks, sees the Harlem rapper navigating a surreal narrative that includes getting arrested, escaping custody and engaging in wild, high-energy scenes with his crew and cameos from artists like Thundercat and A$AP Nast. Ryder appears as a key character within the suburban-meets-punk setting, contributing to the off-beat tone of the clip as fans were shown unexpected moments such as her bringing cookies to a late-night jam session.

The “Punk Rocky” video accompanies the lead-in single off Rocky’s forthcoming album Don’t Be Dumb, slated for release on January 16, marking his first full studio project since 2018’s Testing. The album rollout has included teasers and speculation about experimental sounds and cross-genre influences, with Rocky and his collaborators positioning the visual and sonic elements as a broader artistic statement ahead of the full project’s arrival. The use of Winona Ryder — known for cult-classic film roles — adds a distinct cinematic flair to the video, which has been noted across multiple outlets for its surreal and chaotic energy.

Released to coincide with the start of 2026, the clip has rapidly circulated online, fueling fan conversations and anticipation for the album. Social media reactions highlight the visual’s unconventional narrative and Rocky’s direction, reinforcing the high level of attention around his creative comeback after years of teasing new material.
