A$AP Rocky continues his “Don’t Be Dumb” album rollout with the J. Cole-assisted track entitled “Ruby Rosary.”
Produced by The Alchemist, Rex Kudo, Car!ton and Jordan Patrick, the four-minute track is a smooth offering that has fans speculating the Harlem rapper dissed Drake.
“N*gga want smoke with me, tell him, ‘Push up, Hercules’/ Hercules, tell him push up, tell him pull up, 33,” Rocky raps over the piano-led beat.
Listeners think the bars could be an attempt to revive his feud with the Toronto star due to his “Push Ups” diss track from April.
Rocky continues to snipe: “Who in your top five? Haha (F**k your top five)/ I don’t get fresh to death, b**ch, I’m buried alive/ I heard dawg talkin’ funny, like it’s Family Guy/ Carin’ for n**gas like I’m Mary or Bob, made a promise to God/ You gotta strive when you marry the mob.”
J. Cole picks up the pace with a fiery assist: “What happens when rappin’ no longer matters? Can I still make a stack on my brilliance/ I don’t wanna go back to civilian status/ I’m an addict for comfort and doin’ whatever I want to.”
“Ruby Rosary” marks the first time Rocky and J. Cole have collided on a track. It arrives just a week after “Tailor Swif,” a standalone single that was leaked a few years prior.
