A$AP Rocky has come under fire on social media after a remark made during a recent concert in Phoenix, Arizona, as part of his Don’t Be Dumb Tour, sparked debate about his relationship with Rihanna and his comments toward women in the audience. The rapper told female fans, “Thank god y’all didn’t know me when I was single, ’cause I would have f**ked the sh*t out of you.” A video of the moment quickly circulated online, generating a wave of reactions.
Social Media Reactions
Many users argued the comment was inappropriate and disrespectful, especially given Rocky’s long-term relationship with Rihanna, with whom he shares three children. One user wrote, “Disrespectful to Rihanna, disrespectful to women, someone remind me why this guy is still relevant.” Another commented, “‘Praises’ and it’s just objectifying the women…not to mention the disrespect to Rihanna.” A separate post read, “Why is my queen married to this d*ckhead?”
Defense and Debate
Not everyone agreed with the criticism. Some fans defended the rapper, arguing the remark was part of his stage persona and should not be interpreted literally. Others pointed out that Rocky specifically referenced a time when he was single, suggesting the comment acknowledged his current relationship status. The discussion expanded beyond the concert, with many debating whether the comment crossed a line or was simply intended as entertainment.
Rocky and Rihanna have been together since around 2019 and remain one of the music industry's most closely followed celebrity couples.
