Hungry A$AP Rocky<\/a> fans apparently couldn\u2019t wait to get their hands on the Rap superstar\u2019s fourth studio album \u2013 the January 16-released \u2018Don\u2019t Be Dumb<\/a>.\u2019<\/p>\n

His first LP since 2018\u2019s \u2018Testing,\u2019 the long-awaited set is in a tight race with Bad Bunny and Taylor Swift projects for the top spot on next week\u2019s Billboard 200 \u2013 a feat that (if accomplished) will mark Rocky\u2019s third time owning the title over this career.<\/p>\n

Celebration of the album\u2019s arrival has come courtesy of a number of its cuts getting the video treatment including \u2018Whiskey<\/a>,\u2019 \u2018Flackito Jodye<\/a>,\u2019 \u2018Helicopter<\/a>,\u2018 and more.<\/p>\n

The clear standout of the bunch, however, is clearly the high-octane \u2018Punk Rocky.\u2019<\/p>\n

Arrived to digital shelves on January 5, \u2018Punk<\/a>\u2018 didn\u2019t make its Hot 100 debut until this week\u2019s edition of the chart \u2013 benefitting greatly from A$AP\u2019s headline-grabbing appearance on \u2018SNL\u2018 where he showcased a live performance<\/a> of the Cristoforo Donadi-produced cut.<\/p>\n

That promo boost helped hoist the tune to a #64 debut<\/a>, marking a personal milestone for its performer.<\/p>\n

The last time Rocky hit a mark that high on the Hot 100 unaccompanied was when \u2018L$D\u2018 premiered and peaked at #62 on the tally in June 2015.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, \u2018Punk\u2019 \u2013 thanks to increased streams of its parent project \u2013 is poised to hop even higher on next week\u2019s edition of the all-genre hitlist with some reports indicating it could even crack the top 50!<\/p>\n

Keep it locked to That Grape Juice for more on the impact \u2018Dumb\u2019 tracks make on the updated Hot 100 once the full list is made available on Tuesday (January 27).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hungry A$AP Rocky fans apparently couldn\u2019t wait to get their hands on the Rap superstar\u2019s fourth studio album…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":436441,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[58017,24474,64,63,11924,107431,134,27926,136,227776,76546],"class_list":{"0":"post-436440","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-aap-rocky","9":"tag-asap-rocky","10":"tag-au","11":"tag-australia","12":"tag-billboard","13":"tag-dont-be-dumb","14":"tag-entertainment","15":"tag-hot-100","16":"tag-music","17":"tag-punk-rocky","18":"tag-rihanna"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/436440","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=436440"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/436440\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/436441"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=436440"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=436440"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=436440"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
