A$AP Rocky Says That he Wished He Was Light-Skinned As A Kid

A$AP Rocky has yet to admit that he's dating Rihanna after there's been a lot of recent rumors about them being an item. But the rapper did admit that he wanted to be light-skinned when he was younger.

Rocky made the admission on a new song for the video game Cyberpunk 2077 that came out on Thursday.

"When I was younger, man I wished that I was light-skinned / Now I wouldn't trade the world for my skin / I surpassed what you could do inside your lifespan / So just give me a little credit like a white man," he spit in the untitled song.

Rocky has been criticized in the past for seeming to dodge questions about race and for saying that he can't relate to the Black Lives Matter movement because he lives in Soho and Beverly Hills.
