A$AP Rocky Says He & Rihanna Will Name Next Child After Denzel Washington
A$AP Rocky Reveals He & Rihanna Plan to Name Their Next Child After Denzel Washington
A$AP Rocky has revealed that he and Rihanna are already thinking about names for their third child — and the inspiration comes straight from Hollywood royalty.
In a recent interview with GQ, Rocky shared that if he and Rihanna welcome another baby, they plan to name the child after his co-star in Spike Lee’s latest film, Highest 2 Lowest — legendary actor Denzel Washington.
“Denzel, no matter what,” Rocky said. “The first female [to] come out named Denzel, it’s lit. We got it figured out.”
Rocky and Denzel Washington recently acted together in Lee’s highly anticipated film, which premiered last month. The rapper and fashion icon currently shares two sons with Rihanna — RZA and Riot — and hinted that this time around, the couple is hoping for a girl.
In a separate interview with Elle, Rocky admitted:
“I hope it’s a girl. I really do. We’re praying for a girl. 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.”
Denzel Washington a few weeks during his promotional run for the movie Highest 2 Lowest declared people have been calling his name incorrectly all these years.

Rocky Speaks on Drake vs. Kendrick Drama
While family life with Rihanna remains his top priority, Rocky also addressed hip hop’s biggest feud of the year. Speaking to Elle, he gave his take on Drake’s decision to pursue legal action against Universal Music Group following his lyrical battle with Kendrick Lamar.
“The battle was between Kendrick and Drake, not Drake and everybody else who might have said something at that time, and that’s mainly why I fell back,” Rocky explained. “I just hate the way it’s turning out with [Drake] suing and all that. What part of the game is that? What type of sh*t is that? That’s none of my business, I guess.”
New Music on the Way
Amid family plans and hip hop headlines, Rocky is also gearing up to finally release his long-awaited fourth studio album, Don’t Be Dumb. The project will be his first full-length release in seven years, following 2018’s Testing.
With a baby on the way, a major film under his belt, and new music loading, A$AP Rocky is making sure 2025 is one for the books.
