Rihanna Fenty has bought a grill influenced by legendary deceased Fort Greene-Brooklyn emcee Olโ Dirty Bastard also known as Russell Ason Jones, which she wore at her son RZAโs Wu-Tang Clan-themed first birthday bash.
Gabby Elan Jewelry offered fans a closer glance at the glistening piece that she custom-designed for the Fenty mogul on Instagram on Monday (May 15).
Etched with 18-karat diamonds across the underneath and โDirtโ written across the top, the grill is actually a replica of one Dirt McGirt owned in the โ90s and was crafted by the same jeweller.
โWu-Tang is for the Children @badgalriri with an O.D.B. inspired Diamond โDirtโ Grill in 18kt. The original grill in the last slide was done by us in the early 90s,โ Gabby Elan wrote.
The ‘Diamond’ hit crooner adorned herself with the custom grill at her sonโs birthday party, where she dressed up as Olโ Dirty Bastard. Her costume also included his signature corn rows and spiked-up braids along with a vintage Wu-Tang leather jacket.
Footage from the party saw baby RZA dressed up as his namesake, complete with a yellow eye mask, while A$AP Rocky channelled Ghostface Killah with a pink mink coat and winter knit hat.
Taking to Instagram over the weekend, Pretty Flacko shared a collection of photos with his firstborn boy, while also confirming that he and Riri did, indeed, name the baby after the Wu-Tang Clan visionary.
โโWU TANG IZ 4 DA CHUREN.โ HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY TO MY 1st BORN. RZA,โ he wrote in the caption.
In the definitive comedown, Rocky disseminated a clip from the late ‘Baby Jesus’ Asonโs history-making appearance at the 1998 Grammys when he crashed Shawn Colvinโs win by hopping onstage and shouting, โWu-Tang is for the children!โ
Stories of the power coupleโs sonโs name originally surfaced last week when The Daily Mail reportedly got its hands on the babyโs birth certificate, disclosing his name to be RZA Athelston Mayers. It also said he was born May 13 at 10:58 a.m. at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
Being named after legendary Hip Hop artists runs in the family as A$AP Rocky previously revealed he was named after Rakim.
Rapper A$ap Rocky and RiRiโs family will shortly evolve to welcome one more child. While an expected date hasnโt been disclosed, the Bajan megastar exhibited a substantial baby bump when she performed at the Super Bowl LVII Halftime Show in February โ which would mean Riri was already a few months along.
