A$AP Rocky Officially Releases ‘Tailor Swif’ Following Leak: Stream It Now

A$AP Rocky dropped his eagerly-awaited single “Tailor Swif” early Friday (Aug. 30) on streaming platforms.

The track, which first surfaced as a leak after Rocky’s live performance at Rolling Loud Portugal in July 2022, has sparked plenty of conversation, especially with its nod to Taylor Swift.

Rocky initially performed the song under the name “Wetty,” and after it leaked online, fans clamored for an official release.

Though the rapper was initially hesitant about including leaked tracks on his upcoming album Don’t Be Dumb, he ultimately decided to give fans what they wanted. Rocky took to social media on Thursday (Aug. 29) to announce the release, cheekily writing, “SINCE U DUMMIES LEAKED IT ALREADY,” and sharing a snippet of the music video, which was shot in Ukraine.

While describing the project for his Billboard cover story, Rocky said he’s continuing his exploration of German expressionism.

“In this very moment, it’s very grim. That’s an abbreviation,” he said. “It’s infusing German expressionism with ghetto futurism.”

The track’s title has drawn reactions from fans, particularly Swifties, who have mixed feelings about the playful reference to the “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” singer. Despite the reception, the release of “Tailor Swif” has only heightened anticipation for Don’t Be Dumb, which Rocky has pushed back to the fall.

“Tailor Swif” follows Rocky’s August single “Highjack,” which debuted at No. 89 on the Billboard Hot 100.. With Don’t Be Dumb on the horizon, Rocky’s upcoming album is shaping up to be a major statement, both musically and visually.
