A$AP Rocky is once again making headlines for his actions on stage amid his world tour.
The rapper’s ongoing “Don’t Be Dumb” Tour doesn’t seem to be casting him in the best light after a viral clip showed him getting confrontational with some concertgoers.
Rocky was recently in the hot seat after remarks made during the Arizona stop were interpreted as disrespectful to his partner, Rihanna.
A clip from the tour’s Las Vegas stop showed Rocky getting into a heated argument with some members of the audience.
The rapper was seen among the crowd, surrounded by his security team as he yelled at the fan in front of him. Apparently, he attempted a stage dive with the audience, but it failed. “ASAP Rocky swinging at fans after failing to stage dive,” read the caption across the TikTok upload.
Wearing a balaclava mask that covered his face over a black sweater, the “Praise the Lord” singer swung a fist at someone before aggressively yelling, “Back up!”
The post has since garnered over 800,000 views, with fans heavily criticizing the rapper for his crude behavior.
Fans Predict The ‘Downfall’ Of A$AP Rocky After Confrontation
It didn’t take long for fans to camp in the comments section, sharing their disapproval. “He’s rapidly losing his aura points,” one user slammed.
Another comment shed more light on the drama that occurred during the concert: “I’m so glad I wasn’t in the pit. He yelled at them all night, bruh.” A third fan noted, “Each show is just getting worse,” while another dismissively declared, “This ain’t his year.”
As expected, Rihanna was brought into the conversation, with one fan asking, “Riri is this your man?” Others urged the “Umbrella” songstress to leave the rapper. “Downfall of ASAP Rocky? Never thought I’d see it lol,” another harsh remark read.
Some fans wondered if there was more to the rapper’s controversial acts. “What’s going on with him lately?” asked one user.
A$AP Rocky Accused Of Disrespecting Rihanna
Fans’ concern comes as no surprise given the recent headlines Rocky made during the Arizona stop of his tour.
As The Blast reported, the New York native, while on stage, showered compliments on some female audience members. “Thank God y’all didn’t know me when I was single because I would’ve fu-k-d the sh-t out of you if you was pretty,” he proudly declared.
The statement didn’t sit well with fans who thought it was disrespectful to Rihanna, with whom he shares three children.
“A$AP really out here flirting like he’s single while Rihanna’s raising his kids at home. Loyalty expired the second the lights hit,” one fan criticized. Another user slammed, “It’s just objectifying the women… not to mention the disrespect to Rihanna.”
The ‘Fashion Killa’ Rapper Addressed The Backlash
Following the incident, the 37-year-old, at his next stop, addressed it, slamming fans for running with an untrue narrative.
According to Complex, Rocky stopped mid-performance to fire back at the Internet for always attacking his decisions.
“First they was saying n-gga was wearing thongs, then they was saying n-ggas show wasn’t selling out, nobody wasn’t coming, then they saying I’m disrespectful to my wife,” he declared before telling critics off with an expletive.
Per reports, the rant comes shortly after fans mistook Rocky for wearing a microphone pack harness, prompting his record label to launch its own underwear brand.
Rihanna Turns Rocky’s Concert Into Family Affair
Despite the recent string of backlash, Rocky and Rihanna’s bond remains unshaken, as seen during the Los Angeles stop of the “Don’t Be Dumb” Tour.
In videos circulating online, the billionaire was present in the crowd as a proud supporter of her partner. However, she wasn’t alone as she carried their 2-year-old son, Riot Rose.
Rocky was undoubtedly thrilled to have his family present and didn’t hesitate to give them a heartwarming shout-out. “Riot Rose, hey son. Hey buddy. Daddy loves you, son,” the rapper gushed while being suspended above the stage.
The sweet moment earned reactions. “Aww, that’s so sweet. It’s always special when parents bring their kids to see their work,” one fan praised.
