A$AP Rocky Debuts New Single 'pray4dagang' With KayCyy
A$AP Rockyis set to release his new single 'pray4dagang' featuringKayCyy, a track from his highly anticipated upcoming albumDON'T BE DUMB, expected to drop later in 2025. The song as well as snippets of other unreleased tracks was originally previewed during Rocky'sAWGE Paris Fashion Week show, where it sparked major buzz.
KayCyy opens the track with reflective verses, grappling with the emotional toll of balancing career ambition with personal relationships. He speaks to the pain of temporarily leaving someone behind in pursuit of a greater dream. The song then transitions into a powerful chorus led by A$AP Rocky, layered with deep drums, bass and ambient background vocals. Rocky delivers emotionally charged bars that explore the darker sides of fame — personal sacrifices, isolation and the ongoing struggle to stay grounded amid the chaos.
Toward the end, the vocals are overlaid with what sounds like the echo of bombs dropping closing with the line 'pray for the world' — whether literal or metaphorical — and underscoring the heavy emotional weight of the track.
'pray4dagang' sets the emotional tone for what fans can expect from his upcoming albumDON'T BE DUMB— a raw, introspective and sonically rich project that doesn't shy away from vulnerability.

Caught on tape. A&E is set to debut an upcoming docuseries titled 'Secrets of Celebrity Sex Tapes,' the Post can exclusively reveal. Premiering Monday, September 8 (9pm ET on A&E), the eight-episode series will explore some of the most infamous celeb sex tapes – including Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee, Kim Kardashian, Colin Farrell, Farrah Abraham, and Mimi Faust. In the trailer, the show proclaims that it will be 'exposing the naked truth.' The episodes will cover the story behind each tape, the public reaction and fallout in the media, and the impacts on the celebs' lives. Famously, Kardashian's sex tape boosted her fame. Meanwhile, Anderson has spoken out about how her leaked sex tape gave her trauma that made her 'sick' and negatively impacted her career for a while – she even nearly got written off 'Baywatch' for it. Speaking onscreen about Lee and Anderson's leaked 1995 sex tape, a pop culture expert in the trailer says, 'There was very much a double standard. She was a slut, and he was a stud.' 6 Key art for 'Secrets of Celebrity Sex Tapes.' A&E 6 Kim Kardashian in a clip from 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians.'

'The exposure of those deeply intimate and private moments not only reshaped the cultural landscape, pushing boundaries and sparking backlash, but also became turning points in the lives of those who were featured in them, catapulting some into fame while derailing others,' the show's description reads. The show promises to have 'exclusive interviews from those who were involved' as well as new secrets and details. 6 Colin Farrell poses for a portrait in Los Angeles on Nov. 8, 2004.

Taylor Swift Launches a New Countdown for Mystery 2 P.M. ET Announcement
THE RUNDOWN Less than one week after revealing the cover art, tracklist, and release date for her upcoming album The Life of a Showgirl, Taylor Swift has another announcement coming at 2 P.M. ET today. Swift put fans on alert this morning when she started a new countdown on her site. Thankfully, the wait won't be long: While it's unclear what news she'll share, there are several possibilities: Swift could reveal that she will perform at the 2026 Super Bowl or 2025 MTV VMAs. She could also announce her album's first single and release date or drop new merch for her The Life of a Showgirl era. The URL for her site auto-directs to so make what you will of that. Fans noticed that Swift's Apple Music page is now glittering in purple ahead of the announcement, with some Swifties theorizing her first single will be 'Actually Romantic.' If she announces a new single today, the Monday timing would give her fans ample time to prepare for a midnight drop on Friday, 12 A.M. ET, which is when most new music is released. Over the weekend, fans speculated that the star hinted at a 2026 Super Bowl halftime show performance during her New Heights appearance. Swift spoke about her love of numerology during the show, and fans linked her comment about having thoughts of sourdough '60 percent of the time' to next year's Super Bowl since it is the NFL's 60th ever. The game will also take place in Levi's Stadium, home to the San Francisco 49ers whose mascot is notably Sourdough Sam. During the interview, the singer explained her Easter egg methodology: 'The art of the Easter egg is that there's do's and don'ts, right? I'm never going to plant an Easter egg that ties back to my personal life. It's always going to be towards music or a musical.' 'Something I'm coming up with, something I have coming up, a plan I have coming together,' she continued. 'Something that you don't know I'm saying for a specific reason that you'll hear later and you'll go back and be like, 'Oh my god.' I think my favorite one of those was I was given an honorary doctorate from NYU, and I made the commencement speech. And I put so many lyrical Easter eggs in that speech that when the Midnights album came out after that, the fans were like, 'The whole speech was an Easter egg.' And for me, that's really fun because they find it fun.'
