A$AP Rocky: My Sons RZA & Riot Fuel My Creative Fire
A$AP Rocky’s journey as a dad has a big influence on his work as a musician.
The rapper and fashion trendsetter, 36, sat down with podcast hosts Chioma Nnadi and Chloe Malle for the latest episode of The Run-Through with Vogue to discuss everything from the 2025 Met Gala to some of his upcoming projects. During the interview, Rocky also talked about how being a proud dad of two influenced his creative process.

“Being a father is my creative process now because I just embodied it as a whole,” he told the hosts. “I never really had a role model or just an iconic figure, … and I guess I’m that for people, and I didn’t purposely try to do that, but I take it as a badge of honor. I’m so flattered and, you know, just being me that it can inspire people to actually do something that is considered good being a present active father.”
“I love that s—. For me, my dad was a proud dad. He taught me everything I know, especially how to be a gentleman and whatnot, so I was prepared to be a dad my whole life, man, you know?” he added. “I’m ready, and I’m 36 going on 37, man. These clothes suit me well.”
Rocky shares his two children, sons Riot, 21 months, and RZA, 2, with singer and Fenty Beauty founder Rihanna. Elsewhere in the conversation, the “Show of Hands” artist raved over his two boys, sharing his favorite part of watching them grow up.
“Man, it’s amazing. Obviously, they [are] still growing into their personalities and stuff and developing, but it’s amazing,” he said. “To see them actually, like interact with each other and interact with me and with their mom. And it’s it’s amazing. It’s beautiful.”
“It’s something that you dream about, and when it happens, it’s just like you [are] living your dream and that all jokes aside,” he continued. “And I hate to make it sound extra, … but that’s just how it is for me.”

Save for a few interviews, Rihanna and Rocky, who have been together since 2020, have kept the details of their young sons’ lives private. They did, however, pose for the first time as a family of four in September 2023.
Rocky has also been vocal about his desire to raise open-minded kids and “not people who discriminate.” He explained to Dazed in 2022, “And I’m not trying to describe a saint, but realistically, I just want a cool child with cool parents.”
He also wants his sons to have as normal a childhood as possible while having two very famous parents. As Rocky told Billboard in August 2024, “They still human. They human beings.”
