Rapper A$AP Rocky recently sat for a photoshoot that will feature in the music edition of Mr. Porter and opened up about his sense of style.

Speaking to the magazine about fashion, he explained that a lot of urban acts over-compensate for their lack of personal style with diamonds and big accessories: "I have a Rolex, but no diamonds. Rappers wear diamonds to compensate for a lack of fashion sense. I don't even have pierced ears - I'm not into that, it's too much."

He also admitted that he doesn't mind the rumours about his sexuality and confessed that he gets a lot of women so has nothing to prove: "People say I'm gay sometimes, but I have a lot of b**ches so why would I care? It doesn't bother me at all."

"You know why they say that? Because they can't say that I suck, they can't say that I'm not handsome, and they can't say that my lyrics are wack, so they say that I'm gay because they don't have anything on me."

He is set to tour the UK later this spring and the first date will take place on May 22 at London's Brixton Academy.
