A$AP Rocky European tour
Overview
American rapper A$AP Rocky continued the European leg of his ‘Don’t Be Dumb World Tour’ with a performance in Kaunas, Lithuania, at the Žalgiris Arena. The set featured a mix of established hits, such as ‘Praise The Lord (Da Shine)’, and new material including ‘Punk Rocky’ and ‘Hellicopter’.
The tour has maintained significant momentum, with many dates across Europe and the United Kingdom reaching sell-out status. Following the Lithuanian stop, the itinerary included scheduled performances in Berlin and Paris.
Due to the ongoing touring schedule, A$AP Rocky and his partner, Rihanna, were absent from the MTV VMAs in Los Angeles. This absence occurred despite Rocky receiving a nomination for Best Cinematography for ‘Punk Rocky’. Rihanna has been accompanying the artist during several European dates, having previously appeared on stage with him in Brussels and Copenhagen.
The tour, which spans over 40 countries across Europe and the United States, follows the release of his fourth album, ‘Don’t Be Dumb’. On October 6, Rocky performed his first concert for a Croatian audience at Arena Zagreb. The show was described as an audio-visual spectacle with a ‘totalitarian chic’ aesthetic, utilizing lasers, sirens, SWAT team props, helicopters, and pyrotechnics to create a dystopian atmosphere.
On October 8, Rocky performed his first concert in Belgrade, Serbia, at the Belgrade Arena. Organized by SKYMUSIC and Live Nation, the event featured a visual identity influenced by the aesthetic of filmmaker Tim Burton. Following the performance, Croatian singer Nina Badrić drew social media attention by jokingly referencing a previous encounter with the rapper that occurred before his relationship with Rihanna became public.
