A$AP Rocky revealed the tender inspiration behind his and Rihanna‘s son’s name,โค RZA, during a recent interview with GQ. The monikerโข is a direct homage to robert Fitzgerald Diggs, the founding member of the influential hip-hop collective Wu-Tang Clan, and a figure deeply admired byโค the rapper.
The choice reflectsโฃ a critically important piece of โA$AP Rocky’s artistic lineage and personal values, signaling a passing of the torch to a new generation. This revelation arrives as the couple continues to navigate publicโค life with their growing family, offering aโค rare glimpse into the intimate details โฃshaping their parenthood.โค The couple welcomed RZA in May 2023, โขand later welcomed their daughter riot Rose in August 2023.
“This is what occupies most of my heart: my family,” A$AP โRocky told GQ.
Rihanna has described motherhoodโค as a profoundly transformative experience.”Its legendary. You realyโ don’t remember what life was like before,โ this is the craziest,” the artist shared with british Vogue in 2023.
The Wu-Tang Clan, formed in Staten Island, New York, in the early 1990s, revolutionized โhip-hop with their unique blend of martial arts beliefs and lyrical complexity. RZA, asโ a producer and rapper within the group, isโฃ especially celebrated for hisโฃ innovative soundscapes and influential production style.
