A$AP Rocky wears his heart on his sleeve — and his bag.
On Tuesday, Jan. 14, the rapper (born Rakim Mayers), 36, was seen heading to a studio session in New York City with Bottega Veneta's Large Cabat tote bag, which paid tribute to his partner, Rihanna, and their two sons, RZA, 2, and Riot, 1.
Rocky embellished the wooden-toned bag, valued at $10,900, by adding four brass "R" clips in the bottom right corner, representing each member of his family.
Bottega Veneta offers the clips for $125 each at select stores worldwide. Each clip is crafted from muse brass and available in silver and gold finishes with different letters and symbols.

It's not unexpected that the artist paired the bag with his entirely gray outfit for his day at work, considering he represents the Italian fashion brand as an ambassador.
Last June, Rocky and his two sons were the stars of Bottega Veneta's "Portraits of Fatherhood" campaign, which included a black-and-white photography series of the trio.
"Through this project, I am fully embracing and embodying the roles of fatherhood, parenthood, companionship, and family, all while continuing to develop my career in every facet," Rocky expressed in a statement regarding what he described as "the evolution of Mr. Mayers."
Before that, Rocky was the star of Bottega Veneta’s Pre-Spring 2024 campaign, where he was photographed in real-time by paparazzi wearing Bottega Veneta menswear looks.

While catching up with PEOPLE at the Footwear News Achievement Awards in New York City on Dec. 4, Rocky revealed that he plans to give all his clothes to his sons one day.
"They won't need to put in a lot of effort to understand it. Everything will be readily available to them," he remarked, expressing his desire for them to bring their own unique perspective as well.
Regarding their current style inspiration, Rocky disclosed that Rihanna, who is 36, is the one responsible for curating their outfits.
