DJ Steve Aoki and his wife Sasha Aoki have welcomed their first baby together, a baby boy, the couple shared: “He came out on his own time.”
Steve Aoki and Sasha Aoki are amped up about their new roles.
Six months after the DJ and Columbia University alum—who tied the knot in July 2024—shared they were expecting their first baby together, the couple announced the arrival of their baby boy Rocky Aoki.
“Rocky77 has arrived!” they wrote in a joint Instagram post alongside a photo of their newborn’s feet July 25. “We’re so in love with him already.”
Steve and Sasha also noted just how significant their son’s birthday truly is for them.
“Even more special is that we get to celebrate our son’s birth on the same day as our wedding anniversary,” they added. “Surprise arrival, he came out on his own time already writing his first chapter of life. Let the adventures begin!”
In January, the 47-year-old revealed their pregnancy news during a performance in Dubai, bringing Sasha up on stage for the “special moment” they revealed their baby’s sex.
“This is my wife, and we’re having a baby,” he told the crowd at the time, per People. “We’re going to find out if it’s a boy or if it’s a girl.”
And after a few crew members brought out a cake with their last name featured in both blue and pink letters, Sasha went on to smush the dessert in Steve’s face as confetti and smoke poured out into the sky.
“It’s a boy,” Steve confirmed. “We have a little boy.” Later, he wrote on social media that their sweet treat was simply “the most important cake of my life.”
Steve and Sasha’s mid-show reveal should come as no surprise, as the longtime DJ previously opened up about the importance of his passion.
“I still have the thirst,” he told Billboard in 2022. “I still have the enthusiasm, and with music, there’s no greater energy force. There’s no greater high than playing your records at your show in front of a crowd that knows your music and everyone’s just f–king lit up. Like, there’s nothing greater than that.”
