ASAP Rocky, known for steering clear of political discourse, took a rare moment at Rolling Loud Los Angeles to speak out on immigration and recent wildfires. Pausing his set, he acknowledged the diverse audience before him.

“I see unity. I see so many types of people. I see so many different colors,” he remarked, visibly moved.
Dedicating his performance, he continued, “I would like to dedicate this show to anybody that was affected by those fires. To anybody that was affected by the immigration laws. My heart goes out to you.”
His words held weight as Los Angeles faced devastation—at least 29 people died in the wildfires that swept through the area earlier this year. This marks a shift from Rocky’s 2015 stance when he stated he didn’t “sign up to be no political activist.” Now, a decade later, he’s embracing the moment, connecting with his audience on a deeper level.
Rocky also performed “Your Honor,” reflecting on his legal battles. Produced by Metro Boomin, the track had been teased online weeks prior.
His moment of solidarity came as immigration policies faced fresh controversy. The Trump administration continues to implement harsh immigration crackdowns, leaving many who come to the U.S. for a better life now living in fear and uncertainty.
