Rihanna and A$AP Rocky seem like a match made in heaven … but apparently, they’re also a match made by the rapper’s mom!

A$AP appeared on “NYT Popcast” Thursday and revealed his mom would constantly badger him to make a move on Rihanna when they were just friends … but he was convinced she didn’t see him that way. But the “Fashion Killa” hitmaker wasn’t going to lie … he said he was always down for Rihanna — and we can’t blame him!

A$AP praised his mom for her intuition on the podcast, raving … “Mothers know best!”

He went on to say how thankful he is that he and Rihanna sparked up a romance when they did, because he didn’t feel he would be ready for such a relationship beforehand. He also gushed about how well they work together and the similarities in their upbringing, explaining … “We were on the same page. Born the same year. My dad is from her country. … When I go back, I get to see both sides of my family.”

As you know, A$AP and the Fenty Beauty founder were friends long before they fell head over heels for one another … first meeting in 2012 for a performance at the MTV Video Music Awards. Their relationship blossomed into something more in 2020, and they’ve been together ever since.

They have 3 kids together — RZA, Riot, and Rocki — and have the world guessing whether or not they are married … something A$AP has possibly hinted at my calling RiRi his “wife.”

Regardless, it’s clear there’s nothing but love between them — they simply work, work, work, work, work!
