    A$AP Rocky Teases New Music from ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ at Cannes Film Festival

    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.

  • Rihanna Fans Hold Out Hope After Studio Visit Sparks New Album Speculation

    Rihanna Fans Hold Out Hope After Studio Visit Sparks New Album Speculation

    Is ‘R9’ Finally on the Way?

    Rihanna fans, accustomed to the long wait for her next album, were given a glimmer of hope this past weekend when rumors surfaced of her visiting a New York City recording studio on January 18. The speculation quickly spread, with many fans believing it could signal the start of new material for her highly anticipated R9 album, which has been teased for years.

    However, as with every Rihanna rumor, the excitement was tempered by skepticism. Some fans, burnt by countless unfulfilled promises over the years, are cautious about getting their hopes up. The latest buzz even led some online users to speculate that Rihanna’s studio visit could be related to her involvement in an upcoming Smurfs movie, rather than a musical project.

    While fans continue to yearn for R9, Rihanna has kept herself busy with her family, business ventures, and supporting her partner A$AP Rocky during his ongoing assault trial. The couple’s relationship has also sparked marriage rumors, but no official confirmation has been given.

    Adding fuel to the fire, there are whispers that Rihanna could appear on The Weeknd’s upcoming album Hurry Up Tomorrow, though those rumors remain unverified. For now, fans are left to wait, hoping for a surprise announcement—or album—when the time is right.

    A$AP Rocky’s Legal Drama: Judge Questions Relationship Status with Rihanna as Trial Looms

    Courtroom Confusion Arises Over Rihanna’s Marital Status; Trial for 2021 Shooting Set to Begin

    A$AP Rocky and Rihanna’s relationship status has become a topic of confusion in court as Rocky’s trial for the 2021 shooting approaches. During a pre-trial hearing on January 16, Judge Mark S. Arnold sought clarification on how to refer to Rihanna, with Rocky’s attorney calling her his “common-law wife.” However, prosecutors objected, stating she should be referred to as his “significant other” or the “mother of his children” unless they are legally married. The judge ultimately ruled that Rihanna could only be called his wife if proof of legal marriage was presented.

    Additionally, it was revealed that prosecutors offered a plea deal to Rocky, but he rejected it, expressing confidence in his acquittal. Jury selection for the trial, where Rocky faces up to 24 years in prison for allegedly shooting former A$AP Mob affiliate A$AP Relli, is set for January 21. The trial could last around 15 days.

    ASAP Rocky reflects on the time he & Rihanna fell in love

    Rocky reminisces about falling in love with RiRi

    A$AP Rocky shared one delightful memory of the moment he thought Rihanna fell in love with him many years before they even became a couple in a W Magazine heart-touching interview.

    The Harlem rapper, who appears on the magazine cover, shared much about their elongated relationship and the chemistry between them. According to Rocky, the bond was established when Rihanna agreed to be a part of his 2012 video “Fashion Killa”. In it, they both played “wifey” and “hubby” on screen, setting up an awesome real-life thing that would later blossom.

    The interview was featured in his Manhattan apartment and shot by none other than Rihanna herself. Pointing to a particular settee in the room, Rocky said, “This is very special because this is the first place she fell in love with me,” with Rihanna reportedly “giggl[ing]” in the background.

    He then continued to add, “The music video for ‘Fashion Killa’ was shot by Virgil Abloh back in 2012, and that’s that same couch where Rihanna and I were in the first scene. That was that same room.”

    What had just started as a professional collaboration has now evolved into quite a glamorous, high-risk relationship between powerful music and fashion figures A$AP Rocky and Rihanna, arguably one of Hollywood’s most famous couples.

    And, as expected, this now adds another chapter to their already-celebrated love story because, for fans, it now gives a glimpse of the relationship’s early days, the words of the heart on Rocky’s side, and Rihanna’s presence – clicking pics of him for this special feature – as solid proof of their relationship beyond the music industry.

    What fans now wonder is what more intimate details about their love story will come out in future interviews, while the couple is doing so well.

    She added: “So it doesn’t even feel like a job. But when you bring it home, I cannot express to you guys what this day means for me to be able to celebrate with the people that deserve it the most, the community that has always propelled me to the next place and given me the strength and the grace and you guys have always inspired me.”

    RiRi wishes to have a daughter for her next birth

    Rihanna has publicly embraced how she enjoys being the mother of her boys, although she has also surprisingly revealed the need to even things up in the house by having a daughter.

    During an October 24 interview with Entertainment Tonight, she spoke about the “boy energy” in the house, which comprises her partner A$AP Rocky, their two sons RZA aged two, and Riot Rose who is nine months old.

    “The best, I live for it,” she explained. “It’s never a dull moment. I love when they climb off the chandeliers. I love when they literally are so scary that I’m forced to have fun. Me running around, me lifting them up, it’s all fun, it’s all exercise. But it works out for both of us, all of our kids.”

    When the birth of a girl was mentioned, Rihanna confirmed that she has indeed, plans for a girl. “I wanna have a girl,” RiRi continued. “I wouldn’t know what to do ’cause I only know about boys so far. It will be a new adventure.”
