A$AP Rocky's latest musical offering is a chaotic reflection of his ever-changing artistic vision. The new track "Helicopter" has been released alongside a surreal video that blends elements of Grand Theft Auto with satirical scenarios, showcasing the artist's penchant for outlandish visuals.
The animated clip features A$AP Rocky as himself, but not quite - he rides around in a hot pink mini helicopter, hijacks it at one point, and even dangles from its underside like a human pendulum. The video is accompanied by a bass-heavy chorus that perfectly captures the song's frenetic energy.
Rocky promoted the track on Instagram, reiterating his passion for the project and dismissing any claims of AI-generated content. His dedication to his art is unwavering, as evident from his collaborations with Tim Burton and Danny Elfman, who have worked together to create a film accompaniment to the album, Don't Be Dumb.
The upcoming album is shaping up to be Rocky's most creative project yet, with 130,000 physical vinyls already sold. In an interview with Variety, Rocky discussed his artistic vision for the record, stating that it represents who he is right now and hopes to convey a sense of humility and sincerity through its lyrics.
However, Rocky has also expressed insecurity about his role as an artist, acknowledging that he sometimes struggles to describe himself without coming across as boastful or evoking negative emotions in others. Despite this, the "Don't Be Dumb" project promises to be a game-changer, with A$AP Rocky pushing the boundaries of his art once again.
The release of "Helicopter" marks an exciting milestone in the lead-up to Don't Be Dumb's January 16th release date, and fans can expect more surreal visuals and experimental soundscapes from the album. With its unique blend of satire and creativity, A$AP Rocky is poised to cement his reputation as one of the most innovative artists working today.
