By As a child, Rocky was a huge Fab fan and wanted a photo with the rapper, but Fab said no. “I just learned from it, I always try not to tell kids no,” said Rocky.
When Rocky was just a kid, he apparently ran into Fab and, like any superfan, wanted to get an autograph or a picture. However, Fab had other plans and wasn’t interested.

“Fab was about, he was with a lil’ n*gga, n*gga like my age type sh*t,” said Rocky. “I was just like, ‘Yo, Fab,’ I’m like 12 or something like, my heart pounding.” Everyone laughed at the thought of a young Rocky working up the nerve to approach. He asked Fabolous, “‘I can get a picture or an autograph?’ He said no to the picture, then I asked for the autograph.”
“I could tell like, he was lookin’ around and all that type sh*t, so I guess he was trying to be on ten,” Rocky added. “He was trying to be on point. So, as a kid, it really didn’t register to me, I was a little hurt. So, I went home and ripped down all his [photos],” he said while everyone laughed. “That’s still my n*gga though, man.”
Noreaga wanted to know if Rocky ever told Fab this story, and he confirmed that he had. “He was like, ‘Wow, crazy how sh*t turn out.’ But, I just learned from it, I always try not to tell kids no.” Noreaga brought up Future, who reportedly said that he attempted to get a photo with Scottie Pippen when he was younger but was told no, so in turn, he later dated his wife, Larsa Pippen.
