ASAP Rocky fans might have to wait a little longer for Don’t Be Dumb, originally set for Friday (Aug. 30), but he’s making it up with the release of his “Tailor Swif” music video. An obvious nod to Taylor Swift, the track was first performed at 2022’s Rolling Loud Portugal, and its visual companion leaked shortly after. Though the song has been on the back burner, the New York rapper gave a much-needed update on Thursday (Aug. 29).

“SINCE [YOU] DUMMIES LEAKED IT ALREADY,” ASAP Rocky captioned a short clip of the Vania Heymann and Gal Muggia-directed effort. Around the same time, he confirmed that Friday will mark its official launch on TikTok.

“Shoot my shot, got her wet / Bet that’s all neck, girl, that’s wetty / Wetty, gave me all neck, I’ll be headin’ / Ready, might just sign my ex-girl, no Malcolm and Eddie, already,” the musician rapped in one of the song’s verses.

The ASAP Mob frontman previously spoke about the track in a sit-down with Billboard. He explained, “At this point, I’ve been working on music for six years, but they leak my music, and I get over it and say, ‘F**k it.’ They leak a lot of the music, and it ruins it. Like my ‘Tailor Swif’ video. I was pissed off about it, so I never released it.”

Don’t Be Dumb is expected to drop in autumn. Ahead of its debut, ASAP Rocky shared the Jessica Pratt-assisted “HIGHJACK” at the top of August. In 2023, he unloaded the Pharrell Williams-assisted “RIOT (Rowdy Pipe’n),” which is named after his youngest son with Rihanna.

Earlier this month, ASAP Rocky made headlines after addressing rumors about a beef with Drake. The “Everyday” hitmaker essentially downplayed the idea of any serious feud, unlike the Canadian star’s ongoing tension with Kendrick Lamar: “I got bigger fish to fry than some p**sy boys. It is real beef outside.”
