Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have purpose to rejoice, because the couple only recently welcomed their third youngster. The information was revealed simply days in the past and, since then, a military of followers have reached out to increase their congratulations on the delivery of their child lady, Rocki Irish Mayers. As pleased as followers appear to be, although, there are some who nonetheless appear a bit miffed that the songstress has but to launch a brand new album. Because it seems, Rihanna and her associate are nicely conscious of the gripes, they usually’ve even joked about them.
A$AP Rocky – whose actual identify is Rakim Mayers – has been selling his newest 2025 film launch, If I Had Legs I’d Kick You. With that, he took half in an interview (carried out earlier than child Rocki’s delivery was introduced on Instagram) with Elle, throughout which he talked about his life and profession. The topic of his rising household got here up, and Mayers admitted that each he and “RiRi” discuss how followers could also be displeased that they’re making infants and never songs.
Mayers particularly pointed to at least one dialog he and his associate had:
You already know what we joke about? She’s like, ‘Yo, I ain’t gonna lie. Your followers may wish to kick your ass as a lot as my followers wanna kick my ass. What saves me is that I’m pregnant more often than not.’
The psychological picture that I at present have of the rapper and Rihanna laughing about this child/music subject is truthfully making me chuckle. If something, the 2 have all the time appeared to have a eager stage of self-awareness (and good senses of humor). So it tracks that this may be one thing that they’d chortle and joke about. After all, I may see this example from the angle of the couple’s followers.
It’s been a while since both of them dropped albums, and their admirers haven’t stopped citing that truth. The “Umbrella” singer’s newest album, Anti, was launched again in 2016. In the meantime, the Barbadian singer’s associate hasn’t launched a brand new musical compilation since 2018’s Testing. Nevertheless, A$AP Rocky does have a brand new album, Don’t Be Dumb, on the best way this fall, and Rihanna dropped a single for The Smurfs earlier this 12 months. Nonetheless, followers seem hungry for extra.
This all isn’t to say that the A-list couple hasn’t been busy in different respects, although. For instance, the Ocean’s 8 actress has been overseeing her numerous enterprise ventures. Additionally, A$AP Rocky’s appearing profession has been taking off, as he additionally just lately starred alongside Denzel Washington in Spike Lee’s Highest 2 Lowest (which is streamable with an Apple TV+ subscription). After all, they’ve additionally been elevating their two sons, RZA (3) and Riot (2).
Following the delivery of her newest child, although, quite a lot of eyes will definitely be on Rihanna with regards to new music. Followers in all probability shouldn’t anticipate the billionaire singer to supply something instantly since she clearly has a new child to take care of. Within the meantime, I wouldn’t be shocked if she and A$AP Rocky proceed to joke about followers’ ideas.
