In honor of the rapper's 34th birthday, take a look at how he made dynamic nail art his beauty signature.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/rihanna-asap-rocky-best-couple-style-moments" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A$AP Rocky</a> is one of the biggest names across the entertainment industry. Outside of music, the rapper has made a name for himself as an iconic trendsetter in men's fashion and beauty. Most specifically, his signature braids and cheeky <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/nail-art-fall-2021-trends-beauty-manicure" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nail art</a> has been pivotal to his style journey.&nbsp;
Male nail art has been a form of self-expression for years. In the former age of rock'n'roll, stars like <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/david-bowie-style-2021-fashion-makeup-trends" target="_blank" rel="noopener">David Bowie</a>, Steven Tyler, and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/kurt-cobain-90s-grunge-style-impact" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kurt Cobain</a> were leading the way in making "man-icures" cool. Now, Rocky, along with celebrities such as <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/harry-styles-love-on-tour-shirtless-custom-gucci-best-looks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harry Styles</a> and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/men/anwar-hadid-mon-reve-devenir-designer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Anwar Hadid</a> are reigniting these trends as they continue to utilize fierce nail designs in their style influence. <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/a-complete-timeline-of-machine-gun-kelly-and-megan-fox-s-relationship" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Machine Gun Kelly</a> has even entered the beauty world by launching his own nail polish line.&nbsp;
In an interview with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.vogue.com/slideshow/asap-rocky-selfridges-store-headscarves" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vogue</a>, the Harlem-born entertainer expressed his desire for more men to embrace artsy manicures. &ldquo;I feel like men should be able to do nail art without feeling feminine,&rdquo; he said, citing how a "really, really good lady" drew a collection of exciting Prada motifs and designs on his nails during his collaboration with the brand. His call towards destigmatizing the societal standards for men in beauty and fashion has been instrumental, as Rocky himself proves to be a perfect example of someone who doesn't adhere to the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/what-is-soft-boy-aesthetic-harry-styles-timothee-chalamet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">traditional expectations of masculinity and femininity</a>.&nbsp;
Rocky has experienced with a variety of dynamic nail art, from his explicit "F*CK YOU" nails and patriotic American flag imagery to silly smiley faces and hearts decorating his fingers, there isn't a nail design he won't try. To celebrate the rapper's 34th birthday, L'OFFICIEL&nbsp;takes a look at some of Rocky's most influential nail art designs.&nbsp;
