  • This ASAP Rocky here, I'm going face to face with Rihanna today.

  • Ring ring, ring ring, What's up?

  • How are you?

  • I'm good.

  • How are you doing?

  • I got a couple of questions for you from both.

  • What's the first thing you notice in somebody when you see for the first time, like, what's the first thing you look for?

  • The first thing you see is someone's face.

  • Unless you're looking at their shoes, I usually tend to look at their skin, their teeth, their smile.

  • And then after that, it's more about like what whatever energy they're they're they're giving off.

  • That's really, really important because all of that prettiness could go to ship it if if your demeanor is like wack, most fellas, not myself, but most fellas look at the as you feel me.

  • But you know, skin is definitely one of them, you know, ask her skin.

  • Thank you guys notice in our skin, how would you describe your skin?

  • My skin type is um just as complicated as men are, you know?

  • Yeah, he wasn't ready for that.

  • Because you always try to say women are complicated is, y'all I have gone through many skincare changes within my journey, started from acne for sure.

  • All the way to sensitivity and melisma and being a black woman with not knowing any to use SPF?

  • I've learned a lot.

  • So what is your skin type handsome?

  • What's your favorite curse word?

  • It means so much and four letters right like, you know, I just like dropping out, you know?

  • Yeah, it could mean that sh it could also mean that True, but I like better.

  • Yes.

  • What's your favorite item that you purchased for less than $20?

  • My last favorite purchase under $20 was definitely a diffuser from my essential oils.

  • That's funny because you're a guy, but that means a lot to us this with me.

  • That's what's up for me, jacket or umbrella.

  • This is a tricky question because my fans might feel like I'm a hypocrite.

  • I've made the most money off of the same color.

  • Yeah.

  • Jacket Next.

  • Who's your number one beauty icon?

  • This is gonna sound very redundant and very cliche.

  • But my mother, my entire concept of beauty came from her.

  • I was always so intrigued there.

  • I wanted to dress like her.

  • I wanted to look like her.

  • I want to do my hair like her, do my makeup, like her.

  • She was a sale skirt for beauty products and perfumes, makeup is so weird that it has come full circle that all of these ventures are things that I have.

  • Um I've extended my creativity to, and it has been a part of my brand overall.

  • So I learned from the best, you know, I had the best teacher, my mom.

  • Yeah, that's the one part of the beauty industry.

  • You wish you could change.

  • I wish that the leaders of the beauty industry were more diverse um set of pioneers who have not just experienced the culture but have experienced them a negligence in the industry, whether it comes to their skin tone or skin type, I feel like there's so there are so many voids to be filled and we will only know that by the pioneers that have experienced those voids and and the lack of their representation in the industry.

  • And so I think by having an eclectic array of skin type skin tones, different cultures and people and and representations of religions and cultures, you would have the most information on where to go next.

  • What was the hardest part about working with me on Fenty skin?

  • I can tell you what that is not laughing the whole time.

  • The hardest part of working with you for fancy skin was getting your approval on your images because your skin is pretty regardless we, that's why we hired you.

  • You know what I'm saying?

  • They're like, I can't pick which one of my pores are smaller in which image I was just playing.

  • But yeah, it's not hard working with you.

  • Hey, yo, what was your first red coffee look?

  • Can you remember that young, dumb, skinny and the inspiration for my future and my evolution.

  • This had to change.

  • That's crazy.

  • So what's next?

  • What's your favorite?

  • Oh, you know what?

  • I really love those like bell bottom capris with the bunny ear Scully cat.

  • I love that outfit so much.

  • Like I wish I could, I could wear that like as a girl.

  • But I can't.

  • I mean I could we have but that outfit for sure is one of my favorites.

  • It's so fun.

  • It's so, it's so quirky and weirdo.

  • And what's your favorite color to wear?

  • And the black.

  • Mm hmm gray.

  • But I really, really love language.

  • Lime green could be for anything, makeup nails here, outfits, different fabrics, different pieces of furniture.

  • I love lime green.

  • Now I can front lime green, go with everything like, alright, what's your favorite show to binge watch when you're at home?

  • Like, like right now?

  • Oh my God, this is probably really let the people know, we want to know.

  • I know, but I don't know what my favorite, but usually it starts with the real housewives of everything.

  • The real housewives of everything, Huh?

  • Nice.

  • How do you stay mentally and inspirational E a lot.

  • That's a good one.

  • Being mentally and inspirational E aligned.

  • I mean, it calls for two different sides of my brain and my my spirit because one is a lot more logical.

  • One is a lot of like talking myself into whatever I want to feel or whatever.

  • I wanna evoke um inspirational lee.

  • It's me what I'm pulling in.

  • It's like, what do I want to bring into my spirit?

  • My mind, my logic, my my being my ideas, my creative space.

  • That's where the inspiration goes.

  • I want, I want that to come in and in a way it comes in one way and it's evoked through my art in another way.

  • And and that could be inspection for someone else in the future.

  • And so it's kind of just those two things are kind of the yin and the yang and the core of who I am as an artist.

  • That's a dope ask question.

  • I've never been asked that ship.

  • That's weird.

  • I love this question.

  • I feel like I just found myself, what do you wish people were talking more about in the beauty industry?

  • The topic of inclusivity has become something that like our brand has, has like fallen upon just by sincere and organic perspective.

  • Like my my idea of beauty has always been like a black woman.

  • So the way that I've expanded the idea was doing skin care in a more gender neutral idea where men feel included as well, because men love their skin and they take care of it, but they feel obligated almost to only use products that are for men because anything beyond that seems like it's just too feminine.

  • It's not for them.

  • They're not allowed, they don't have permission and you came from the hood, but you're pretty and you like your fashion, but like you represent a lot of male criterias which they don't really allow themselves to be until they see their representation.

  • And you've represented a lot of those men for me, big deal for me to have you be a part of that.

  • The pleasure's all mine.

  • I want to say thank you for supporting me at a time when I just came home from Jill.

  • Thank you for identifying my beauty as a man.

  • You know what I'm saying?

  • I appreciate you.

  • Like like for real for real though.

  • You know, not only that.

  • Thank you for answering a lot of questions that I didn't really know.

  • I really appreciate that too.

  • You know, and this was tight.

  • It's good catching up with you and everything.

  • Hey, shout out the vote, shoutout geek.

  • You shout out bad girl Riri shoutouts.

  • 50 skin shout out ASAP Yard.
