Rapper ASAP Rocky has spoken up about the type of parent he wishes ꦺto be in a recent interview. The 33-year-old singer welcomed his first child with his girlfriend, singer Rihanna, who gave 🔴birth to a baby boy in Los Angeles earlier this month.
The couple has yet to publish any photosജ or reveal the child's name. Rocky, however, provided a rare insight into his relationship and what he wishes to pass on to his children in a recent interview with Dazed & Confused. He said, "‘I will always remind my children to never lose their imagination, even as adults, no matter what." On being asked, how he envisions himself as a father, Rocky said, "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."
Rocky, whose re⛦al name is Rakim Mayers, has known Rihanna for years and has previously collaborated with her. They began dating in 2020 before formally declaring their romance a few months later, but they have kept their relationship absolutely discreet. That door was thrown open earlier this year when they revealed they were expecting their first child together with a photo shoot.
Meanwhile, after giving birth to their child, Rihanna has kept a low profile and has been mostly missing from social media. She previously made headlines when she spo🍨ke candidly with Vogue about her relationship 💎with Rocky, acknowledging that the leap from pals to something more wasn't easy at the beginning.
