Summary
- Rapper A$AP Rocky took the subway in disguise to visit his grandmother.
- He prefers to remain humble and not flaunt his wealth around her.
- His collaboration with Bilt covered rent for his grandmother's building.
Rapper A$AP Rocky prioritizes humility, especially when visiting his grandmother in Harlem. He recently opted for a disguised subway ride, wearing a balaclava to avoid showcasing his affluent lifestyle.
Rocky explained his preference for not "flossing" or "rubbing" his fortunate circumstances in the faces of less fortunate individuals. He stressed the importance of humanity and remaining humble amidst fame.
In a recent partnership with Bilt, a rewards program, a donation was made to a Harlem apartment building. This building is significant as Rocky lived there as a teenager and his grandmother currently resides there.
The Bilt collaboration, which included a limited-edition vinyl celebrating Harlem and New York, covered January 2026 rent for all residents of the building. Rocky expressed that this act resonated deeply, highlighting his connection to his community.
