A$AP Rocky is strutting out of the shadows with DON’T BE DUMB, his long-awaited fourth album hitting January 16, 2026, via AWGE and RCA, and YOUR HONOR is that defiant courtroom flex—dripping in designer while flipping the script on the system that tried to cage him.
This one’s a mid-tempo trap heater, all Metro Boomin’s signature booming 808s and eerie keys that give it this cinematic weight, running about three minutes of Rocky weaving bravado with bite. It’s straight hip-hop with a fashion-forward edge, those punchy bars landing like verdict drops over a beat that feels both victorious and haunted.
Thematically, it’s all about owning the chaos: ducking charges, stacking racks on your kids’ heads, and showing up to trial looking like a mob boss—Bottega, Armani, Prada straight to the stand. That creative spark? Pure post-acquittal fire, born from the real-life drama of his 2021 Swedish stint and the 2025 Cali assault case that could’ve locked him up for decades. Instead, he turns it into a middle finger, shouting out the jury and his lawyer while shading snitches, all laced with nods to family, Rihanna, and that Harlem grit that never quits.
As track [eight] on DON’T BE DUMB, YOUR HONOR slots into a 17-cut sprawl that’s Rocky’s first full project since 2018’s Testing—unconfirmed but buzzing with singles, snippets, and features like J. Cole on “Ruby Rosary,” Busta Rhymes and Slick Rick on “HOOD HAPPY,” and Skepta closing it out on “LUNATIC.” The whole thing’s billed as a “ghetto love tale,” blending street tales, fatherhood reflections, and high-fashion romance into something raw yet refined, pulling from his life with Rihanna and the kids. Teasers have been dripping since last week’s Insta drop of the Tim Burton-inspired cover, with fans piecing together the vibe from X clips and that Rolling Loud Cali 2025 set where he debuted this live.
Rocky’s closing out 2025 on a high note, acquitted just days before that February snippet leaked—him rapping about suiting up for court like it’s a runway. It’s his evolution in real time: from Live. Love. A$AP’s psychedelic haze to this matured storyteller, trading wild nights for legacy bars that hit personal. Fatherhood’s softened the edges without dulling the shine, and with Metro locking in the sound, he’s proving the wait was worth every delay.
Dive into the YOUR HONOR lyrics below and unpack its raw narrative. Don’t miss other DON’T BE DUMB tracks for more of A$AP Rocky’s triumphant Harlem glow.

[Intro]
Metro
I Done F**ked Up In Cali’ Again
I’m Off That Cali’ Again, Duckin’ And Dodgin’ The County
Back Where They Found Me Again, Be Sure Not To Doubt Me Again
You Can’t Put Guap On My Top Like A Bounty
Clean Up That Case, That’s A Bounty
Fakin’, They Stand On The Stand
My Kids, My Junior, They All Robert Downey Again
Keep Them From ’round Me Again
All Of My Sons Got Racks On Head
All Of My Words Get Taxed, No Cred’
All My Niggas Got Stacks On Deck
All You Niggas Get Whacked, They Playin’
All These Hoes Break Backs On Bread
After We F**k, No Cash, No Bread
Wipe That Smoke, Get Left On Read
These Niggas Is Hoes, They Rats, They Feds
Think My Past On Me Like Future, Like Smoke
Takin’ Shots, Hoes Ain’t Gon’ Tap At The Ball
[?] My Time Nigga, This Your Last Show
Feel Like A Lotto’, That Burner Scratched Off
If I Ever Told One, Instill In The Young
The Price Is So Low You Would Think It’s Half Off
Gold In Your Mouth Just To Blow Your Ass Off
She Eatin’ Me Up Just To See What’s In Store [Chorus]
Bottega To Court, Your Honor
I Wear Armani To Court, Your Honor
Look Like John Gotti In Court, Your Honor
The [Locker?] Said Rocky In Court, Your Honor
I Wear That Prada In Court, Your Honor
Look Like Godfather In Court, Your Honor
Yeah, I Got-got That Shit On, Your Honor
Yeah, ’cause I Put That Shit On, Your Honor, Your Honor (Wait) [Verse 2]
Got A Mop On ’em Right Now
Prolly Got A Prop On ’em Right Now
Nigga Got A Drop On ’em Right Now
Not Guilty, I’m Servin’ In The Crowd
Over Four F**kin’ Years On Trial
Look The Da In His Face With A Smile
Tryna Take Away From A Child
Got Them Cuts On My Knuckles, It Was Slugs And Scuffles
Shoutout To The Jury, No [?], No Jewelry
2024, I Ain’t Takin’ No Prenup
B**ch Like Dinero, Your Price Is Casino
Twelvyy, Lou Banga And Joe Tacopina
Snitch On That Stand On Your Man Like You Nino
Wasn’t Designer, They Find It Like Court [Chorus]
Bottega To Court, Your Honor
I Wear That Marni To Court, Your Honor
Look Like John Gotti In Court, Your Honor
You Know That God Got Me In Court, Your Honor
I Wear That Prada In Court, Your Honor
Look Like Godfather In Court, Your Honor

Yeah, ’cause I Put That Shit On, Your Honor, Your Honor [Bridge]
Bottega To Court, Your Honor
I Wear Designer To Court, Your Honor
My Kids And Momma In Court, Your Honor
I Held Down Rihanna In Court, Your Honor
My Baby Momma, I Pull Up In London
I Got The [?], She Match My Designer
They Say We Model, They Say We Shop On As Partners
They Say We Model, They Say, Your Honor
[Chorus]
