Rihanna proud of A$AP Rocky’s fashion impact as he’s awarded for Puma collection: "He’s always influenced the fashion game"



Rihanna expressed her pride in A$AP Rocky's influence on the fashion world, praising the rapper's unique sense of style and its significant impact on the industry.


Speaking at the 38th Annual Footwear News Achievement Awards on December 4, the Fenty Beauty founder shared that Rocky has always been a trendsetter.


"He’s always influenced the fashion game," Rihanna told reporters. "He’s always had a unique sense of style that I think designers have honed in on and actually use as inspiration for collections."


Despite his contributions, Rihanna believes Rocky “has never gotten the amount of credit he deserves”. She was particularly excited to honour him at the event, where he was celebrated for his recent sneaker collection with Puma.


"Being here tonight, it just feels great to see him achieve something that we always knew that he was a part of and influenced," Rihanna explained. "And I’m proud to be here by his side. It’s a big deal."


The proud mum of two—sons RZA, 2, and Riot, 16 months—added, "I left my kids to be here. I’m super proud of their dad. That’s my baby daddy."


This event marks another public moment for the couple, who made a rare joint red carpet appearance earlier this week at the 2024 Fashion Awards.
