“I'm a big believer in creating your own lane and giving people the opportunity to do the same,” said ASAP Rocky in a statement shared with Complex. “There are so many talented young people with ideas, ambition, and something important to say. This scholarship is about helping one of them turn that vision into something real.”

The Roc Nation School of Music, Sports & Entertainment launched at Long Island University (LIU) in Brooklyn, New York, in 2021, and has quickly built a name for itself as one of the best places for students to learn about the entertainment industry. The school also provides Roc Nation Hope Scholarships to roughly 25 percent of enrolled students, providing opportunities for bright students who otherwise don’t have the finances to attend higher education.
Other high-profile entertainment industry figures have also teamed up with the school to provide scholarships, including DJ Khaled, Megan Thee Stallion, LaMelo Ball, and Young Guru. Notably, Guru also serves as Director of the Music Technology, Entrepreneurship & Production program at the school.
