A$AP Rocky embraced his new role as a father to daughter Rocki Irish during an exclusive conversation at the 2025 CFDA Fashion Awards in New York City.
The Harlem-born rapper, whose legal name is Rakim Mayers, attended Monday night’s ceremony at the American Museum of Natural History, where he opened up about the joys of raising his first daughter with partner Rihanna. The couple welcomed Rocki in September, adding to their family that includes sons RZA, 3, and Riot, 2. The 37-year-old artist’s playful comment hints at his excitement about navigating fatherhood with a daughter after years of raising two boys. Rocky’s appearance at the CFDA Awards comes just months after he was acquitted of felony assault charges in February 2025, with Rihanna standing by his side throughout the legal proceedings.
During a separate interview with Entertainment Tonight at the same event, Rocky expanded on his feelings about his newest family member. The rapper acknowledged that his sons might experience some sibling rivalry with their new sister.
