A$AP Rocky is loving life as a girl dad.
Speaking to Complex in an interview published on Thursday, October 9, the rapper gushed over his newborn daughter, Rocki Irish Mayers, who he welcomed on September 13 with Rihanna.
“My daughter. That’s my favorite thing I created this year,” Rocky, 37, told the outlet. “Shout out to Rocki Irish, man.”
The couple, who also share RZA, 3, and Riot, 2, announced the new arrival on September 24 via an Instagram post.
“Rocki Irish Mayers Sept 13 2025 🎀” Rihanna, 37, wrote alongside a photo of herself cradling her baby.
While Rocky and Rihanna never publicly revealed they were expecting a girl this time around, “Purple Swag” singer spoke about hoping for a daughter after previously welcoming two sons.
“I hope it’s a girl. I really do. We’re praying for a girl,” Rocky told Elle in a profile published in September. “Our first time, we wanted to know the sex of the baby. The second time, we didn’t want to know. Third time, we don’t want to know until, you know.”
He added, “I feel like it’s going to be a girl. This pregnancy is so different from the other two. You can tell from the experience. I hope it’s a baby girl, man. I need that.”
Meanwhile, Rihanna has previously praised Rocky for his parenting skills in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar in February.
The “Umbrella” singer told the outlet that the “greatest thing” about her partner “is seeing him be a dad.”
She joked her only frustration with Rocky when he is performing dad duties is how much the couple’s sons adore him.
“I’m annoyed because my sons sometimes just live for him more than they live for me,” she said. “And I’m like, ‘Did you know who cooked you? Do you know who pushed you out?’ And they love him, but when I see it, oh, it’s the best.”
Rihanna has also spoken candidly about how being a parent has transformed her life.
“It’s everything. You really don’t remember life before, that’s the craziest thing ever,” she told British Vogue in 2023. “You literally try to remember it — and there are photos of my life before — but the feeling, the desires, the things that you enjoy, everything, you just don’t identify with it because you don’t even allow yourself mentally to get that far, because … it doesn’t matter.”
For his part, Rocky has been outspoken with praise for Rihanna and complimented her for the positive effect she’s had on his life.
“[The relationship] is going great,” the “Purple Swag” singer said. “I don’t think there’s a more perfect person because when the schedules are hectic, she’s very understanding of that. And when the schedule’s freed up, that’s when you get to spend [the] most time together. It’s all understanding and compatibility.”
Rocky echoed the sentiment in an interview with GQ in 2021 when he referred to the star as “The One.”
“So much better when you got The One,” he gushed to the outlet. “She amounts to probably, like, a million of the other ones. … I think when you know, you know. She’s The One.”
