A$AP Rocky has decided to release his track 'Tailor Swift' after it was leaked online with other songs from his new album.
A$AP Rocky has released his latest single, 'Tailor Swif', after the track leaked online.
The rapper recently announced that his eagerly awaited LP 'Don't Be Dumb' will be delayed due to "leaks and sample clearances", but that hasn't stopped him dropping the new tune, which is a reference to pop superstar Taylor Swift but has no lyrics about her.
He posted to X: "SINCE U DUMMIES LEAKED IT ALREADY."
The LP was due to be released on August 30, but there have been a few setbacks, forcing the record to be pushed back until autumn.
After Billboard reported the release date change, Rocky wrote on X: “LEAKS AND SAMPLE CLEARANCES ARE DISRUPTING THE ALBUM. ITS BEEN 6 YEARS AND I WANNA MAKE THE BEST ALBUM EVER. IM SORRY FOR THE WAIT. (sic)"
In his interview with the magazine, the 35-year-old star – whose real name is Rakim Mayers - revealed the legendary filmmaker Tim Burton has heard the record and is an unlikely fan.
He spilled: “I sat and I played the album for Tim Burton, and he was f****** with it heavy, he was rocking his head and he’s like, ‘Wow! I didn’t know you made that kind of music!’”
The two were in contact as the 'Praise The Lord' hitmaker wanted the 'Edward Scissorhands' director to design the artwork for the LP, but unfortunately, they couldn't make it happen.
However, Danny Elfman, the famed composer who has collaborated regularly with Burton, did work on some of the music.
It's a highly collaborative effort, with guests expected to include Tyler, The Creator, Metro Boomin, Madlib, Pharrell Williams, Swedish House Mafia, and Mike Dean.
Rocky's last studio album was 2018's 'Testing'.
