No One Does Dadcore Like A$AP Rocky
Days after A$AP Rocky and Rihanna's baby boy took the internet by storm, the couple was already out and about in Beverly Hills to promote Rocky's alcohol brand. How's that for a charmed life? One day you're on a photoshoot with baby and the next you're partying with bigwigs and whisky.
Admittedly, it couldn't have happened to two more stylish people, and we should know: we've exhaustively tracked the couple's outfits, with plenty of singular dedication to both Rihanna and Rocky as individuals.
But damned if we aren't consistently impressed by the killer outfits they turn out with seemingly little if any effort. So it was on the evening of December 19, when they showed up to Rocky's event in typically stylish ensembles.
Rihanna somehow made a cutout T-shirt — printed with "Missing Parents Advisory" (?) — look formal while Rocky epitomized the blend of dressy and casual that he makes look impossibly easy.
We've seen Rocky in suits, we've seen Rocky do dadcore, we've even seen Rocky do both simultaneously but here we see Rocky suit up with a tie and giant dollar sign belt buckle to make his washed out dad jeans look even more elderly, topped with sunglasses on face and joint in mouth. Your pops could never.
It's the first time we've seen the couple since their son made his TikTok debut. And, of course, he was seen on set almost immediately afterwards as his 'rents posed him for a beachside family photoshoot.
Such is the life of someone who's famous even before they're born: they're guaranteed to be the subject of countless photoshoots from fetus 'til forever.
But, at A$AP Rocky's party, the only baby he was nursing was several bottles of his own whisky.
Contextualized with his inimitable spin on dadcore, Rocky still made fatherhood look cool, it's just that this cargo is precious in a different way (hint: look at Rocky's giant dollar sign belt buckle).
