Watch A$AP Rocky Get Arrested & Beat the Odds in Chaotic ‘Punk Rocky’ Video Starring Winona Ryder

On Jan. 5, 2026, A$AP Rocky released the single and video for "Punk Rocky," co-directed with Folkert Verdoorn and Simon Becks, as the first teaser for Don't Be Dumb, due Jan. 16.
The album is Rocky's first full record since 2018's TESTING and has been in the works since at least 2023, with leaks and postponements delaying its release after Aug. 30, 2024.
The video stages a raucous garage party that turns violent, with Winona Ryder appearing briefly as the girl next door bringing pie before Rocky is arrested, bailed out, and escapes using a lighter-triggered ejector-seat gag.
The release connects Rocky to notable collaborators and creatives, featuring five alter-egos in the video, Tim Burton as cover artist, and fan speculation about Rihanna, singer.
A press release called the track `indie subversive` and said it `sets 'the tone for this new era'`; A$AP Rocky has named collaborators including Tyler, The Creator, Danny Elfman, and Pharrell Williams.
