Here's A Look At Saweetie's Dating History
Saweetie's love life has garnered as much attention as her career moves, making both equally eventful.
With nearly a decade in the entertainment industry, the rapper has spawned various hits, including "ICY Grl," "My Type," "Tap In," and the Grammy-nominated "Best Friend." The 31-year-old has also expanded her brand through numerous business partnerships.
Amidst her professional success, Saweetie's high-profile relationships and breakups have also kept her in the spotlight.
Let's take a look back at Saweetie's dating history.

Before her rise to stardom, Saweetie reportedly had a four-year relationship with actor Keith Powers from 2010 to 2014.
In an interview with Hollywood Unlocked, Keith disclosed that their romance ultimately ended due to a toxic dynamic between the pair.
“I was in a relationship for four years from, like, 18 to 22,” he said. “We separated because it was just too toxic.”
After the breakup, The Perfect Findstar moved on with actress and singer Ryan Destiny.

Shortly after calling it quits with Keith, Saweetie reportedly dated Diddy's eldest son, Justin Combs, in 2016.
While the length of their relationship isn't clear, Saweetie seemed to hint at why they split in her 2018 song "B.A.N." The lyrics describe an ex leaving her for another woman. Rumors circulated that Justin had left Saweetie for model Aaleeyah Petty.
The lyrics read:
“You not tall enough, your bank account not long enough for this Style is weak as f—k, your d—k ain’t bomb enough, boy, you a b—h Yeah, played the queen for a pawn b—h, yawn.”

Saweetie's heartbreak over Justin was short-lived because soon after releasing her diss track, the "Best Friend" rapper was linked to Quavo in the summer of 2018.
The couple confirmed their whirlwind romance began when the Migos member contacted her via Instagram DMs. Coincidentally, they kept running into each other at industry events, including New York Fashion Week that same year.
Despite a three-year relationship, their romance ended abruptly when Saweetie confirmed the split on Twitter. In a series of tweets, the "My Type" emcee attributed the breakup to Quavo's alleged infidelity.
“I’m single. I’ve endured too much betrayal and hurt behind the scenes for a false narrative to be circulating that degrades my character. Presents don’t band-aid scars, and the love isn’t real when the intimacy is given to other women,” she tweeted. “I emotionally checked out a long time ago and have walked away with a deep sense of peace and freedom. Excited for this new chapter of elevation.”

Despite the drama surrounding her dating history, Saweetie continued to explore new relationships.
In April 2023, the "Back to the Streets" rapper was spotted with YG at Coachella. The following month, their romance was confirmed during a getaway trip to Cabo. However, by January 2024, reports suggested that Saweetie and YG's relationship had fizzled out.
As of now, it's unclear whether YG and Saweetie have rekindled their romance, though they were recently spotted together during an outing.

In April 2024, singer Chris Brown hinted at a past intimate relationship with Saweetie in his diss track "Weakest Link," aimed at Quavo.
The pair's feud originated from the Migos rapper's rumored relationship with Chris' ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran. Quavo and Karrueche were speculated to have dated between 2017 and 2022, following several public sightings.
This came a few years after the Claws star's public breakup with Chris in 2015. Despite the rumors, Karrueche denied any romantic involvement with Quavo. Karrueche's denial didn't stop Chris from antagonizing Quavo at every opportunity.
While Chris didn't explicitly name Saweetie in “Weakest Link,” he included several innuendos suggesting she was the person he described.
The lyrics read:
“Cause I f—ked yo’ ex when you were still with her b—h, I’m up lil n—a They say revenge sweet, now think about that s—t Don’t let that line go over your head, I might just sing about that s—t I had her fiending ’bout that d—k there’s something sweet about that s—t I got some tea up out that b—h, but I ain’t go speak about that s—t.”
Saweetie would deny the allegations by releasing the track, including “Nani.”

This Black Woman-Owned Creative Agency Shows Us The Art Of Rebranding
Rebranding is an intricate process and very important to the success of businesses that want to change. However, before a business owner makes this decision, they should determine whether it's a rebrand or an evolution.
That's where people like Lola Adewuya come in. Lola is the founder and CEO of The Brand Doula, a brand development studio with a multidisciplinary approach to branding, social media, marketing, and design.
While an evolution is a natural progression that happens as businesses grow, a rebrand is a total change. Lola tells xoNecole, "A total rebrand is necessary when a business’s current reputation/what it’s known for is at odds with the business’s vision or direction.
"For example, if you’ve fundamentally changed what your product is and does, it’s likely that your brand is out of alignment with the business. Or, if you find your company is developing a reputation that doesn’t serve it, it might be time to pump the brakes and figure out what needs to change.
She continues, "Sometimes you’ll see companies (especially startups) announce a name change that comes with updated messaging, visuals, etc. That usually means their vision has changed or expanded, and their previous branding was too narrow/couldn’t encompass everything they planned to do."

The Brand Doula was born in 2019, and its focus is on putting "the experiences, goals, and needs of women of color founders first," as well as brands with "culture-shifting missions."
According to Lola, culture-shifting is "the act of influencing dominant behavior, beliefs, or experiences in a community or group (ideally, for the better)."
"At The Brand Doula, we work with companies and leaders that set out to challenge the status quo in their industries and communities. They’re here to make an impact that sends ripples across the market," she says.
"We help the problem solvers of the world — the ones who aren't satisfied with 'this is how it's always been' and instead ask 'how could this be better?' Our clients build for impact, reimagining tools, systems, and ways of living to move cultures forward."
The Brand Doula has worked with many brands, including Too Collective, to assist with their collaboration with Selena Gomez's Rare Beauty and Balanced Black Girl for a "refresh," aka rebrand. For businesses looking to rebrand, Lola shares four essential steps.
1. Do an audit of your current brand experience — what’s still relevant and what needs to change? Reflect on why you’re doing the rebrand in the first place and what success would look like after relaunching.
2. Tackle the overall strategy first — before you start redesigning logos and websites, align on a new vision for your brand. How do you want your company to be positioned moving forward? Has your audience changed at all? Will your company have a fresh personality and voice?
3. Bring your audience along the journey — there’s no need to move in secret. Inviting your current audience into the journey can actually help them feel more connected to and invested in your story, enough to stick around as changes are being made.
4. Keep business moving — one of my biggest pet peeves is when companies take down their websites as soon as they have the idea to rebrand, then have a Coming Soon page up for months! You lose a lot of momentum and interest by doing that. If you’re still in business and generating income, continue to operate while you work on your rebrand behind the scenes. You don’t want to cut existing customers off out of the blue, and you also don’t want so much downtime that folks forget your business exists or start looking for other solutions.
While determining whether the rebrand was successful may take a few months, Lola says a clear sign that it is unsuccessful is negative feedback from your target audience. "Customers are typically more vocal about what they don’t like more than what they do like," she says.
But some good signs to look out for are improvements in engagement with your marketing, positive reviews, press and increase in retention, and overall feeling aligned with the new branding.

Exclusive: After Focusing On His Career For So Long, David Banner Is Now Ready To Find A Wife
During the Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heistpremiere, David Banner, who stars in the film, opened up about his weight loss and his desire to get married and start a family. At 50, David has accomplished many feats, from rapping, producing, and acting, and now he's ready for the next phase of his life. "I want to get married," he tells xoNecole.
"I'm tired. I want to find my wife, have some kids. We chase all of these esoteric goals, and sometimes we look back, and we left the things that really matter. I looked up one day, I had all of them, the music accolades, the film accolades, not all the ones that I want, but a lot of them. I had accomplished my goal, had chased my goal so long that when I looked up, I saw that I ran off and left everything else."
He also shares how working in the entertainment industry can sometimes affect his life and relationships with others. "We forget to be human beings, and people don't allow us to be human beings," he continues. "So, that's the reason why I said what I said, because I know what y'all platform means, and I want people to know that there are still some human beings that's up on that camera, and sometimes we hurt too."
Back in 2016, the "Like a Pimp" artist released the single "Marry Me" and shared in an exclusive interview with us how he is working on becoming his best self for his future wife.
"I just want to be the man that most Black women want to marry. I want to be a Black man that stands strong," he said. "I'm not perfect, but [I want to be the man] women want to marry and that kids want to be their father. I want to be that man. [When I die] I want people to say that that's a strong African man, I am proud that he's a part of my culture."
During our most recent interview with the "Get Like Me" rapper, he also revealed that he lost 35 lbs and dished on how important it is to take care of your body. "I have this thing that I want to be our children's superhero on the screen and off, and people always talk about mental health, but part of your mental health is what you put in your body," he says.
"People always talk about God. People always talk about the church, but the real church is your body, your temple. So I am treating my body and my temple as if God is in there."
Fight Night is out now on Peacock.
