A$AP Rocky Played Tim Burton His ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ Album: ‘He Was F–king With It Heavy’


A$AP Rocky revealed that he played Tim Burton his new album 'Don't Be Dumb.' The rapper tells Billboard how the director reacted.

However, the Harlem native pulled up on Burton and had the opportunity to play him Don’t Be Dumb, which received the Big Fish director’s stamp of approval. While Burton didn’t contribute to the LP, Rocky did connect with the director’s right-hand composer, Danny Elfman, who added pieces to certain songs, including one produced by The Alchemist. He released his first single of the year with the Jessica Pratt-assisted “Highjack” earlier in August, which gave Pratt her first Billboard Hot 100 entry when the Jordan Patrick-produced track debuted at No.
