Steve Aoki and wife Sasha welcome first son Rocky77

Steve and Sahsa Aoki have welcomed their first son, Rocky77, paying tribute to his family’s legacy on a special anniversary.

Steve Aoki and his wife Sasha have officially welcomed their first child together — a baby boy named Rocky77. The Grammy-nominated DJ shared the exciting news on Instagram, writing, “Rocky77 has arrived! We’re so in love with him already ❤️” The post featured a heartwarming photo of his son’s baby feet.

What made the moment even more meaningful was the timing of Rocky77’s arrival. “Even more special is that we get to celebrate our son’s birth on the same day as our wedding anniversary,” Aoki added. The couple now has even more reason to celebrate July 25 as a landmark day in their lives.

According to Aoki, the birth came as a bit of a surprise. “Surprise arrival — he came out on his own time, already writing his first chapter of life,” he said. That spontaneity seems fitting for Aoki’s fast-paced and adventurous lifestyle.

Since the announcement, fans and fellow artists have flooded the comments section with congratulatory messages. Musicians, influencers, and longtime supporters shared their excitement for the new parents. It’s a joyful moment that’s clearly resonated with the EDM community and beyond.

Fans on social media were quite curious about the name. Some have pointed out that the name Rocky77 appears to be a heartfelt nod to Aoki’s roots. “Rocky” honors his late father, Rocky Aoki, while “77” is believed to reference the year Aoki’s parents were married.

Steve closed his announcement with a message full of excitement for what’s ahead. “Let the adventures begin! ❤️❤️” he wrote. With a new baby in the family and more memories to create, Aoki and Sasha are entering a brand new chapter.
