Harlem's own A$AP Rocky announced he's embarking on a global campaign known as the “Don’t Be Dumb World Tour”. The tour is slated to land at Cleveland's Rocket Arena on May 29, promising a night of fresh tracks from Rocky's fourth studio album, per WKYC. Fans eager to snag tickets can set their alarms for the general sale that starts Tuesday, Jan. 27, at 10 a.m. at asaprocky.com, but if you're feeling lucky, you might want to jump on the presale opportunities beginning with an artist presale on Friday, Jan. 23.
Not only is Rocky hitting the stage, but his alter egos are rumored to be joining the fray, adding an eclectic mix to the anticipated shows. This tour dishes up Rocky's first full-length release since 2018's “Testing”, and comes on the heels of his recent film stints and the birth of his third child with superstar Rihanna. According to Cleveland.com, the new album "Don’t Be Dumb", released on January 16, already tallied over 1 million pre-saves on Spotify.
The tour offers a treasure trove of experiences, considering A$AP Rocky hasn't performed in Cleveland since a House of Blues gig in 2012. His reemergence ushers in not just a night of music but a cultural moment that spans his creative ventures in music and cinematics. “Don’t Be Dumb" is ironically the title that suggests a willful entry back to the spotlight, with an ambitious 43-stop schedule that includes international dates, detailed by Pitchfork.

Those holding a Cash App Visa Card get a leg up with presale access starting January 21, by simply using the primary nine digits of their card, and must complete their purchase using it, "Live Nation said. While the tour kickstarts in Chicago, it sweeps across the U.S. before crossing European borders, likely marking Rocky's return to Sweden since his controversial assault case in 2019.
