A$AP Rocky gave his and wife Rihanna 's son a sweet shoutout during the latest show on his Don’t Be Dumb World Tour. Rapper A$AP Rocky The 38-year-old pop star and Riot, two, attended the 37-year-old rapper's show at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on Saturday night (27.06.26), and the Umbrella hitmaker smiled as she filmed the sweet dad and son moment on her phone. According to a video posted on X, Rocky - real name Rakim Mayers - shouted: "Riot Rose! Riot Rose!" As the tot waved to his dad from Rihanna 's arms, the Praise the Lord artist added: "Hey son! Hey buddy! Daddy loves you, son." Fans reacted to the adorable moment in the post's comments section, as one penned: "Aww, that's so sweet. It's always special when parents bring their kids to see their work. Glad they're having a good time. (sic)" A second supporter typed: "Aww. Amazed at Daddy." And a third follower wrote: "Rocky seems like a sweetheart awww what a cute moment! (sic)" It comes after Rocky - who also has son RZA, three, and daughter Rocki, nine months, with Rihanna - went viral following flirty comments onstage at the Mortgage Matchup Centre in Phoenix, Arizona, on June 23, where he joked he would have had sex with some of the women in the crowd if he were single. According to a video posted on X, the Everyday performer said: "Thank god y'all didn't know me when I was single because I would have f***** the s*** out of you if you was pretty." Some social media users called the remark disrespectful and urged Rihanna to leave the rapper, as one commented: "So many things could’ve been said instead, but he chooses the most stupid disrespectful thing to his audience and his partner. (sic)" While another added: "Rihanna if you don’t leave this man lol, he’s constantly disrespecting her." And a third reacted: "For a person with three children and supposedly in a serious relationship, this is not cool to say. Its almost cringe. (sic)" Not all reactions were negative, however. Some supporters defended A$AP, arguing the comment had been made in jest and criticism of the rapper had been exaggerated. Rocky feels that becoming a girl dad has increased his respect for women, too. In January, he said on The Ebro Show: "The respect I have for women is just growing. I just got so much respect and props for mothers, what they go through, what they body go through, the changes, and then to have a daughter. It's just mindboggling, bro. "She got all my looks. She the girl version of me, man."
