A$AP Rocky is addressing the online narratives that portray him as a “kept man” because of Rihanna’s massive fortune.
During a recent appearance on The Jason Lee Show, Lee praised the couple’s confidence and pointed out how discussions surrounding celebrity relationships often turn into comparisons, with fans debating who has achieved more, who has more wealth, or whose career is currently at a higher level.
Those kinds of comparisons “have nothing to do with what y’all got going on,” Lee told Rocky around the one-hour, 28-minute mark of the interview featured below.
“My woman got billions, I got multi-millions,” Rocky said. “Her success is never my demise. Her success isn’t mine, at all. I’ve done what I done for myself and I’m proud of what I did for myself.”
The Harlem rapper also emphasized that outside opinions do not impact his self-confidence or his relationship with the ANTI singer and founder of the Fenty brands.
Rocky continued, “There’s nothing another n***a can say to me, especially a n***a with less money or less anything [than] me, to make me feel insecure or less proud about my woman being successful. The fuck sense do that make? What part of the game is that?
“You know where I’m from. Like, nah, bro. I’m proud of that woman. She did that. That ain’t got nothing to do with me,” he added.
According to Forbes, Rihanna’s net worth is estimated at $1 billion.
