YG did previously date Kehlani back in 2020 for a few months. Neither of the two artist have really revealed why they broke up, but the fans made their own interpretations of the breakup claiming the west coast rapper cheated on her.

In 2019, Kehlani wrote a now-deleted tweet captured by The Root that she had known YG for at least five years. Around that time, the California natives were both in the early stages of their respective careers and were relatively unknown to mainstream audiences. However, they had started to make waves with their music — Kehlani with her debut mixtape, Cloud 19 (2014), and YG with his debut album, My Krazy Life (2014).
Speaking on The Breakfast Club, Kehlani said YG was the first person to hit on her when she was entering the industry. Asked why things didn’t take off sooner, she said she used to be “anti-industry people” and did not want to date anyone in the music business.
“Anybody that came my way, I was like, ‘Absolutely not. Let me just keep the music poppin’. And it turns out I ended up right with the person that got at me first,” she explained.
Now when it comes to Saweetie, she was previously in relationship with Migos rapper, Quavo and she was very open about their falling out, claiming cheating was involved.
In previous tweets made the female rapper she spoke about how gifts don’t change being cheated on.
“Presents don’t band aid scars and the love isn’t real when the intimacy is given to other women.”
Saweetie also said that despite the apparent dishonesty, she’s moving forward with a positive mindset. “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 🙏🏽.”
