At 36, Rihanna, with a playful twist, captures RZA, now two years old, embarking on a hilarious escapade from his playpen. Accompanied by the iconic Mission Impossible theme song, the clip depicts RZA's relentless pursuit of freedom, donning adorable white and yellow pajamas.

In the video, RZA's determined climb up the side of his playpen is met with a series of creative maneuvers. Each failed attempt only fuels his determination further, until, with a subtle nudge from his doting mother, he triumphantly reaches for his cup on the floor before strategically returning to the pen's perimeter.

Fans flocked to the comments, amused by RZA's resourcefulness. "He grabbed that drink and casually strolled back to his playpen," chuckled one user. Another quipped, "He's got this under control, saying, 'Don't worry, Mom. I got this.'"

In a recent Billboard cover story, A$AP Rocky opened up about his aspirations for RZA and their younger son, Riot Rose, now 13 months, to lead unfettered childhoods, despite their celebrity parents' status. The "Fashion Killa" rapper firmly rejected the notion that their kids couldn't grow up in Harlem, echoing, "They're still human beings, just like us."

Rocky fondly shared a glimpse into their domestic bliss, jesting that RZA was "walking to the corner store" in a video captured in SoHo. He also spoke candidly about their seamless co-parenting dynamic, marveling at how they manage to find equilibrium amidst their hectic schedules. "It's all about understanding and compatibility," he said, emphasizing the strength of their bond.
