Rihanna is keeping her loyal navy fed this holiday season. Last month, she shared two new songs on the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack, as well as her annual Savage X Fenty fashion show, which showcased new additions to her collection of intimates.

Now, it appears the musically-elusive pop star and multihyphenate has joined TikTok. Today (December 17), she shared her first video on the platform — an adorable video of her son.

Rihanna and ASAP Rocky welcomed their son back in May, however, neither party had shared a video or image of the boy until today.

In the video, the boy is seen sitting in a car seat, smiling and cooing.

“You tryna get Mommy’s phone,” Rihanna says as she records the video.

In the following clip, the baby yawns as he looks out of a car window.

Rihanna and Rocky have not yet revealed their son’s name, however, Rocky expressed his elation over being a father in a recent interview with Complex.

“It’s beautiful,” said Rocky. “Honestly, I think fatherhood gives me more time to do exactly what I want. I don’t have time for anything that isn’t priorities. It helps you prioritize, honestly. I love it. Everything is just based around my newfound love for being a dad and a family man.”

ASAP Rocky’s Talks ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ Album: ‘Flacko Boomin’

Words by: Timothy Mwachia

ASAP Rocky’s fourth studio album is confirmed to be on the horizon. On Thursday (Dec. 8), the rapper joined 2 Chainz on the latest episode of his Amazon Music Live concert series, where he revealed that the forthcoming album is titled Don’t Be Dumb, and is finished. He also performed a slew of unreleased songs from the forthcoming album.

“Thursday night football. Amazon. First time back on stage. Album finished. Don’t Be Dumb. Let’s go,” Flacko disclosed before his set. He later confirmed the album title when it was displayed in a closer view on the screen before he performed music from the project.

One of the songs he performed, “Same Problems,” is dedicated to deceased rappers. “N-ggas dying every other night/ N-ggas crying, that’s a part of life/ Lying to my face trying to say that it’s all good knowing nothing right,” Rocky rhymes. 

The 34-year-old further paid respect to slain artists when the lights were dimmed, and photos of several of them were displayed on the background screen. Some of the rappers who’ve fallen victim over the years that were shown include 2Pac, Biggie, DMX, Nipsey Hussle, Pop Smoke, Mac Miller, TakeOff, PnB Rock, Trouble, and Lil Keed, as well as his late ASAP Mob member ASAP Yams.

While talking to GQ in an interview published last Tuesday (Dec. 6), Rocky disclosed that his album will boast heavy features from Metro Boomin, adding that the late Yams dreamt of the collaboration. 

“I’m gonna put it to you like this: This next album needs to be just called Flacko Boomin, you hear me?” he explained. “Most artists wanna make [collabs just because they’re hot]. For us, it’s like, that’s really my n-gga.”

He continued: “Yams linked me and Metro in 2012. This is before he’s working with a lot of people in Atlanta. He was still in college. A$AP Yams told me Metro was gonna be Metro. He was like, ‘This is the kid I’m telling you.’ So, Yams wanted this.”

The upcoming album will follow up Rocky’s 2018 studio release, Testing.

Firstime fatherhood has ignited a fierce creative fire under A$AP Rocky. After releasing two singles, “D.M.B.” and “Sh*ttin’ Me,” Rocky revealed an entire project is on the way during a concert performance for Amazon Music Live.

This album will mark Rocky’s first LP since 2018’s Testing. Previously thought to be titled, All Smiles, the rapper revealed it is officially named, Don’t Be Dumb. With input from Atlanta-based producer Metro Boomin, the project will surely deliver exciting blends of Rocky’s signature alternative New York rap sound with flairs of today’s dominating southern draws.

Before taking the stage, the rapper gleamingly shared a few words with fans via the video team stationed outside, “Thursday Night Football. Amazon. My first time back on the stage. Album’s finished. Don’t Be Dumb. Let’s go!”

During the stream, hosted by 2Chainz, Rocky performed several songs from the project. One of the tracks, titled “Roddy Rod Pipper,” instantly won the crowd over as they opened up a mosh pit to jam out to it.

The rumors of a track named after pop darling Taylor Swift are still floating around, but no further information has been released regarding the album or when it is expected to hit streaming platforms. However, we will be sure to share more details as they surface.

ASAP Rocky Says His Next Album Will So Much Input From Metro Boomin, It Should Be Called ‘Flacko Boomin’

ASAP Rocky hasn’t released a new album for nearly five years after 2018’s Testing, so the anticipation for his next album — which appears to be on the way — is sky-high. In a new interview with GQ, he revealed a few more details about the upcoming project, including its heavy input from Atlanta superproducer Metro Boomin. “I’m gonna put it to you like this,” he said. “This next album needs to be just called Flacko Boomin, you hear me?”

This is good news for fans of their chemistry in collaborations like “Feel The Fiyaaaah” from Metro’s newly released album Heroes & Villains — chemistry Rocky said stems from their first meeting ten years ago. “[ASAP] Yams [Rocky’s former manager, who died from an overdose in 2015] linked me and Metro in 2012,” he recalled. “This is before he’s working with a lot of people in Atlanta. He was still in college. ASAP Yams told me Metro was gonna be Metro. He was like, ‘This is the kid I’m telling you.’ So, Yams wanted this.”

Rocky made sure to assert that he’s working with Metro because of their connection, not Metro’s current hot streak. “Most artists wanna make [collabs just because they’re hot],” he insisted. “For us, it’s like, that’s really my n****.”

The road to Rocky’s next album already has its first piece in his new single “Sh*ttin Me,” which references his Rolling Loud mosh pit mishap in its dystopic video.
