Rihanna said that the 'greatest thing' about A$AP Rocky is 'seeing him be a dad' to their sons RZA and Riot, but admitted that she's also 'annoyed because my sons sometimes just live for him more than they live for me.

A$AP Rocky and Rihanna are proud parents of two sons — RZA, whom they welcomed in 2022, and Riot, who arrived in 2023. In a 2024 interview with Interview Magazine, Rihanna opened up about her life with two young kids and said she’s happy she started a family with Rocky, whose birth name is Rakim Mayers.

"I just cracked the code on what I really want to do for my next body of work," the singer and entrepreneur says.

Rihanna has two young sons, RZA and Riot, with her longtime partner, rapper A$AP Rocky. Earlier this week, the musician, whose legal name is Rakim Mayers, was found not guilty of firing a gun at a former friend by a jury in Los Angeles.

I am actually feeling really good about this. I know I kept saying this over the years,” she says. Fans have guessed that her next album would lean into reggae, tapping into her Caribbean roots, but Rihanna says that theory is “way off!

After eight years in the studio, Rihanna has finally found a new sense of artistic freedom and the space to craft her long anticipated ninth studio album, commonly referred to as R9 by her devotees, the Navy.
