In a recent interview with media personality Angie Martinez, rapper A$AP Rocky offered a glimpse into his relationship philosophy. The conversation touched upon how the “Praise the Lord” hitmaker avoids following certain industry trends when it comes to romance.
Rocky stated that throughout his life, he’s never felt the need to shower potential partners with extravagant gifts or lavish spending sprees. He clarified that this doesn’t preclude giving presents to girlfriends within an established relationship, but emphasized the distinction between that and a tactic to impress.
“I can honestly say I haven’t spent a lot of money on someone I’m not that involved with,” Rocky remarked. “I believe confidence goes a long way. That’s enough for me.”
He went on to express his disapproval of a trend he’s observed among some rappers, where expensive gifts, private flights, and large sums of cash are used to woo potential partners.
“Honestly, giving gifts to your girlfriend is a different story altogether,” Rocky explained. “But I’m talking about guys throwing serious money around – flying someone out they just met online, showering them with expensive things, and then sending them on their way. That’s not how I operate.”
This interview sheds light on how A$AP Rocky approaches relationships, prioritizing self-assurance over excessive displays of wealth. It’s worth noting that Rocky confirmed his relationship with singer Rihanna in a 2021 GQ interview. The couple have since welcomed two sons together: RZA, born in May 2022, and Riot Ross, born in August 2023.
