“WAS GON DO AMA , FUK IT NOW,” Rocky posted on the Q&A thread on Monday. “YALL MODS ARE CLOWNS”
A$AP Rocky ditched plans to hold an Ask Me Anything session on Reddit ahead of the release of his new album Don’t Be Dumb after moderators indicated they were having difficulty approving his account.
“WAS GON DO AMA , FUK IT NOW,” Rocky posted on the Q&A thread Monday. “YALL MODS ARE CLOWNS.”
One of the subreddit’s moderators apologized to Rocky and blamed the snafu on having problems granting Rocky access to the page, acknowledging they “fucked up” the AMA. “We sent you a mod invite so this doesn’t happen again,” a moderator explained. “Shit got caught in the reddit spam filter even tho we approved your account. Everyone feel free to roast us in the comments, we goofed up, nobody is gonna get banned.”
Rocky is currently rolling out promotion for his fourth studio album, which drops Friday. His first single, “Punk Rocky,” premiered earlier this month, along with a music video featuring Winona Ryder, Thundercat, and Danny Elfman. On Monday, he released a chaotic and trippy music video for his second single, “Helicopter.”

The rapper teamed up with creative visionary Tim Burton for the long-awaited album, with Burton designing parts of the cover artwork and directing a film that accompanies the record.
Speaking to Perfect magazine about what’s taken him nearly eight years to follow up 2018’s Testing, Rocky said he’s in the pursuit of perfection and is focused on building a legacy for himself. “That’s why I’m not so eager to just drop, drop, drop,” he explained. “I don’t do things to just try and stay relevant, or keep my name in the conversation. I try to do natural things, creative, ambitious things that really satisfy me.”
