"I feel like Raf Simons is important for the culture based on the fact that he built a whole new religion around fashion," the rapper wrote. Rocky even penned Simons' tribute when the designer was selected as one of TIME's 100 Most Influential People of 2017. For starters, he's frequented his designs, including one of his Calvin Klein looks for the Met Gala this year, where A$AP attended as part of his entourage. The fashion-forward rapper has sat front row at shows from Gucci to Dior, and name-dropped nearly every designer on the planet (including Simons) in his hit "Fashion Killa," but he has a distinct admiration for Raf. Now the lyric appears several times in his new song. The cheeky clip was in response to one of Simons' recent interviews, where he implied brands like Vetements and Off-White were not "original." Rocky responded with high praise for the designer in a tweet and that video clip. Rocky originally teased the track in January when he shared Twitter video with the lyrics "Please don't touch my Raf" from the studio. (Playboi Carti is apparently included in the chorus, too.) The song premiered on the Ocean's Blonded Radio station on Apple Music. The rapper released a new track titled "RAF," named after designer Raf Simons, early Monday morning featuring Frank Ocean, Quavo and Lil Uzi Vert. A$AP Rocky is undoubtedly a fashion fanatic, and his latest song just provides further proof.
