Whether for a music video or some other form of promo material, the New York multi-hyphenate artist is cooking something up- and hopefully it lands sooner rather than later.

A$AP Rocky recently got fans recharged for his upcoming musical moves after people spotted him filming a video in Paris. Moreover, it's most likely for a music video, but other promotional footage isn't out of the question, either. Regardless, it certainly builds hype back up for his upcoming studio album, reportedly titled Don't Be Dumb and that should drop at some point this year. Back to the video, though, some of the footage involves Rocky riding a bike and turning up with his crew, all of whom wore white cloths over their faces. All in all, it seems like quite the hyped and excited visual, which we're sure will come with trippy edits and fantastic shots as usual from the A$AP leader.

In other A$AP Rocky news, Metro Boomin recently shared some words of appreciation for his collaborator. Furthermore, the star producer posted a picture of the two together on Twitter and spoke on their friendship's history. "Flacko my real brother since Yams introduced us 13 years ago and been solid ever since," Metro wrote. "I’m 4ever grateful for brosay." Given that they also teased more collaborations in the future, this also recently got die-hards ecstatic for Rakim Mayers' next move.

In addition, the "Excuse Me" MC recently appeared alongside one of his close friends, frequent collaborators, and fellow style icon. Tyler, The Creator tapped him for the song "WHARF TALK" off of his recent CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST: The Estate Sale expansion. Not only that, but it was one of the leftover tracks from that album that Tyler had to bring to light. Fortunately, fans didn't miss out on another stellar track from the duo.

Meanwhile, A$AP Rocky released a few singles for his upcoming album, including the track "Same Problems?" That track saw the 34-year-old in a much more reflective, somber, and conciliatory mind state, reflecting on how his subject matter might impact wider societal issues more negatively. Whether it's with bangers or with ballads, this is shaping up to be an exciting and definitive return to the studio album space for the New York icon. Regardless, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on A$AP Rocky.
