In a moment that has the internet buzzing, A$AP Rocky couldn't contain his joy after being found not guilty of charges involving an alleged incident. Rocky hurried to greet Rihanna as soon as the decision was delivered, but spectators witnessed more than just an embrace—it was a full-on run to his lover. Naturally, the internet had a lot to say.

The ideal way to describe it was by one fan:

"hug??? Others swiftly added, "He tackled my girl😭😭😭."

The encounter was caught on camera, and it quickly went viral on social media, sparking jokes about the chemistry between the pair and, more significantly, Rihanna's musical career—as always.


Twitter erupts with laughter as A$AP Rocky’s post-verdict celebration turns into a viral moment with Rihanna—leaving fans wondering about her music career

It didn’t take long for Twitter to get creative. One user immediately compared A$AP Rocky’s passionate hug to a viral clip of a man jumping over a judge’s desk, writing,

“this video immediately came to mind 😭😭😭.”

The resemblance? Uncanny.

The internet’s focus, however, quickly shifted to a common theme: Rihanna’s long-awaited album, which fans have been waiting on for years. Speculating another pregnancy in celebration, one fan tweeted,

“Riri getting preg again tonight. We are never getting a new album i fear-.”

Another added to the joke, saying,

“her album never dropping,” while another fan lightheartedly sighed,
“I don’t even know what happened.”

People couldn't help but admire A$AP Rocky’s enthusiasm, with one tweet noting,

“That dive was with love😭😭,” and another fan cheekily adding,
“He knows who mother is.”

The jokes didn’t stop there, as someone else hilariously declared,

“hug? baby he flew into her 🤣🤣.”

A$AP Rocky and Rihanna: A power couple with fans craving more music

Being one of the most famous couples in the entertainment business, A$AP and Rihanna's relationship has been in the spotlight for a long time. Rihanna's billion-dollar cosmetics empire and their stylish appearances in public have given them a unique place in popular culture.

Although many were relieved by this recent court victory, fans soon turned their attention to their true worry: would Rihanna ever release new music again? After all, Rihanna's fans have been pleading for her to go back into the studio ever since her seminal Anti album was released in 2016. When she revealed her first pregnancy in 2022, the faith in their icon had already diminished, and now after A$AP Rocky's victory, fans are speculating (and expecting?) them to announce another pregnancy and are thus even less optimistic.

It's not that fans aren't happy for the couple—they absolutely adore the duo. However, the drought has seemed never-ending to a generation that was raised on Rihanna's songs. The possibility of listening to new music appears to be delayed by each new phase of her life, whether it has to do with Savage X Fenty, Fenty Beauty, or her relationship with A$AP.

Even if the internet makes jokes, there is a sincere desire for Rihanna's voice to be heard on the radio once more. Although her admirers may be concerned, they are also aware that Rihanna will return whenever she wants and at her own pace.
