Is A$AP Rocky’s album dropping this week? It sure looks like it. He’s been teasing this project since last fall, and now it seems he’s announced his new album Testing will drop this Friday, May 25 which is almost exactly three years after his last album. He just shared a cryptic image on Instagram with hands reading 5 2 5 with the caption “525,” which is this Friday. His good friend Tyler, The Creator commented saying “does this mean May 25th u cryptic bitch?”
Rocky just did a strange, performance art piece last night called Lab Rat, tweeting a flyer for the event that was also hosted live on his YouTube channel.
The performance art was reminiscent of Frank Ocean building his staircase ahead of his album release and featured Rocky in a glass box doing various tasks with lab workers including answer rapid fire lie detector questions, eating hot peppers, taking an ice bath and more. He just shared the artwork saying “All Done” and we can’t wait. Stay tuned for more info and check out the “Lab Rat” video here. Enjoy!
