A$AP Rocky Adorably Wishes Second Son Riot A Happy 1st Birthday With Photo Dump

A$AP Rocky is just a few weeks away from his comeback project DON’T BE DUMB. The Harlem, New Yorker’s fanbase is more than ready and they have been for quite some time. They do not need to be reminded that the last album he put out was in 2018 with TESTING. However, there are valid reasons for the consistent rescheduling of his fourth studio effort. Rocky and Rihanna have been steadily growing their nucleus and did so just last year. They welcomed their second child, baby boy Riot, giving RZA a younger brother. That happened to be one year ago today that Riot Rose was born, meaning today is his birthday!

Naturally, Rocky went straight to social media several hours ago to celebrate him turning one years old. “HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY TO MY 2ND BORN SON RIOT ROSE MAYERS ❤”, he captioned the post. The hitmaker shared an adorable photo/video dump via Instagram of all of their cutest memories together. Tons of rappers and music industry names were in the comments to help wish Riot Rose an amazing day.

A$AP Rocky and Rihanna’s first public collaboration came in 2012 when Rocky was featured on a remix of Rihanna’s song “Cockiness (Love It).” The two also performed the song live at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2012.

Her appearance in the video sparked many of the first rumors that the two were dating. However, A$AP shot down the rumors in an interview with Distractify, as he stated, “I don’t even look at her like that. She’s sexy, but I’m good.”

Following Rihanna’s split from her rumored partner of three years, Hassan Jameel, gossip once again began to circulate about A$AP. These rumors began after a source told The Sun that they shared a hotel during a trip to New York. The source also stated, “However, Rihanna is reluctant to put a label on it as it’s so soon after Hassan. [But] they’re really enjoying each other’s company and taking things easy as it’s still early days. It’s really casual between them and she’s not thinking about whether there’s a future with Rocky. She’s a newly-single girl having fun.”

The interviewer mentioned that A$AP “starts beaming like a teenager whose crush just accepted his prom invite” when Rihanna was mentioned. Rocky also spoke on the potential of fatherhood in this interview as he stated, “If that’s in my destiny, absolutely.

In an interview with Dazed, Rocky also opened up about his once-private relationship with Rihanna. When discussing the prospect of fatherhood, Rocky stated, “I will always remind my children to never lose their imagination, even as adults, no matter what. I actually love to watch cartoons – I’ve watched like, Teletubbies, Blue’s Clues, Yo Gabba Gabba, Peppa Pig and Baby Shark.” He went on, “I hope to raise open-minded children. Not people who discriminate. And I’m not trying to describe a saint, but realistically, I just want a cool child with cool parents.”

A$AP also spoke on his relationship, stating, “I think it’s just natural. We happen to look good together naturally. You know, it would take a lot of work to have us forcefully match before we leave the house. Sometimes we match to a T, or we just wear the same clothes. If I buy a shirt that she likes, I expect to get it stolen… but then I gotta steal it back.”

February 2023: British Vogue Feature

Just days after her Super Bowl performance, Rihanna graced the cover of British Vogue with A$AP and their son. Rihanna later revealed that she was pregnant at the time of the shoot and did not know it. In the interview with the magazine, Rihanna stated, “We’re best friends with a baby. We have to be on the same page, but we’ve always kind of had that in our relationship. Everything changes when you have a baby, but I wouldn’t say it’s done anything but made us closer.”
