Rappers YG and Saweetie, once the talk of the town for their steamy Cabo getaway in May 2023, have reportedly decided to part ways. The Shade Room, in an Instagram post on January 15, cited a source claiming that the artists reached a "mutual decision" to split, realizing they're "better off as friends." The reason? Both YG, 33, and Saweetie, 30, aim to concentrate on their buzzing careers.
Sparks started flying at Coachella
The duo first ignited dating rumors in April 2023, turning heads with their PDA moment at Coachella weekend 1. While never publicly confirming their relationship, a poolside kissing photo the following month spoke volumes about their connection. YG, known for ‘Go Loko,’ had previously dated Kehlani and Keke Palmer, while Saweetie, famous for ‘Tap In,’ ended a three-year stint with Migos rapper Quavo in March 2021.
Quavo's attempt to woo Saweetie began with a DM slide after spotting her on Instagram's Explore page. However, their relationship hit the rocks in March 2021, with Saweetie citing betrayal and hurt on Twitter. Quavo, in response, stated she wasn't the woman he thought she was, bringing a dramatic end to their high-profile romance.
