Rocky debuts unreleased tracks alongside Rihanna at star-studded premiere
A$AP Rocky gave fans a taste of his long-awaited album Don’t Be Dumb while attending the Cannes Film Festival over the weekend. The Harlem rapper dropped multiple snippets of unreleased songs during the premiere of his new film Highest 2 Lowest, where he appeared alongside longtime partner Rihanna.
The couple turned heads at an exclusive Ray-Ban afterparty, where the DJ played a dance-infused track from Rocky’s upcoming project. The two could be seen vibing behind the booth as the high-energy record played to an excited crowd.
Later, a second unreleased song was played as Rocky and Rihanna made a dramatic entrance on the rain-soaked red carpet. This track leaned closer to Rocky’s signature sound—gritty, stylish, and lyrically sharp—reminding fans why he remains one of hip-hop’s most eclectic voices.
Also spotted at the event were cinema heavyweights Denzel Washington and Spike Lee, adding to the night’s star power.
While there’s still no official release date for Don’t Be Dumb, the Cannes previews signal that the project may finally be nearing completion—much to the anticipation of fans who’ve waited years for a new full-length from the A$AP Mob leader.
