A$AP Rocky has announced a huge ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ world tour, including three UK dates – find tickets here.
The rapper is touring in support of his album of the same name, which he released last Friday (January 16). Per the tour poster below, he’ll be taking all six of the alter egos he introduced on ‘Don’t Be Dumb’, his first full-length album in eight years, on the road with him.
The North American leg kicks off on May 27 in Chicago and takes in cities including Los Angeles, Toronto and Houston, before finishing in Newark, New Jersey, on July 11. Rocky will then head to Europe the following month, beginning in Brussels on August 25 for the first of 18 shows before finishing in Paris on September 30.
The European leg takes in three UK shows – London, Glasgow and Manchester – and one in Dublin. They’ll be Rocky’s first UK dates since 2022, when he played the London Stadium and Manchester’s Old Trafford, as well as headlining Wireless Festival. He was scheduled to play the festival in 2019, too, but had to drop out after being arrested and detained in Sweden, later cancelling the rest of his European tour dates as a result.

NME gave ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ a four-star review, describing it as a “suited, settled and self-assured return that doesn’t dim his light”. Kyann-Sian Williams added about the LP: “In the run-up to this release, many expected an overtly autobiographical record, or something that copied modern trends like an oldhead trying to cling onto his youth – but that’s never been Rocky’s instinct. Where he once revelled in youthful excess, ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ reframes his Pretty Flacko swagger into something more gentlemanly.
“There are subliminal disses – some read toward Drake, others toward A$AP Relli – but they sit within the fabric rather than hijacking it. Ultimately, this is a more mature Rocky: suited, settled and self-assured. The bachelor’s grown up – and somehow, that hasn’t dulled his shine at all.”
He performed songs from the album for the first time on Saturday Night Live over the weekend – he opened with lead single ‘Punk Rocky’, which he released a star-studded video for last week, featuring appearances from Winona Ryder, Danny Elfman, Thundercat, and Rocky’s cousin A$AP Nast. He then went into a medley of ‘Helicopter’ and the album’s title track.
