NEW YORK, NY – A$AP Rocky, the Harlem-born rapper and fashion icon, is experiencing a career resurgence after a tumultuous period. Fresh off an acquittal in a high-profile assault case, Rocky is juggling multiple creative endeavors, including two upcoming A24 films, “Highest 2 Lowest,” directed by Spike Lee, and “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You.” He’s also expanding his role as creative director at Ray-Ban and Puma.
In an exclusive interview, Rocky reflected on his evolution from a “rock star” lifestyle to a committed family man. He and Rihanna are expecting their third child and he’s hoping for a girl. He discussed the complexities of polyamory, his trial, his views on therapy, and the evolving dynamics of the A$AP Mob crew. He also touched on the recent rap feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, stating it’s “healthy for hip-hop.”
Rocky’s ambition stretches beyond music. He aims to be a modern-day Renaissance man, drawing inspiration from artists like Miles Davis. While his fourth album, “Don’t Be Dumb,” remains elusive, he prioritizes family and creative expansion. Rocky’s recent ventures into acting are a commitment to embodying characters fully, even if it means temporarily sacrificing musical pursuits.
Despite past controversies, Rocky embraces his current chapter, expressing gratitude for his opportunities and a newfound sense of balance between family and his thriving career.
