Some people confirm they’re loved by their partner when the person says, “I love you.” Rapper Saweetie said she knew boyfriend and fellow rapper Quavo loved her when he offered her some food. 

During a Jan. 21 interview with Page Six, the “ICY GRL” MC revealed which sentimental gesture told her everything she needed to know about Quavo’s love for her. “The moment I realized that Quavo really loved me is when he saved me some of his food. He gave me his last piece of chicken.” the 27-year-old told the media outlet. 

The “My Type” rapper maintained that she wasn’t trying to test the Migos member. “I’ll be coming out of a Zoom meeting or done doing something, and he would have saved me some of his food,” she said. 

Saweetie said it was those actions that matter the most. “The things that have no price on them,” she explained. “The Bentley is cool, but I’m really into intimacy and how you treat me with my emotional feels.”

Saweetie and Quavo started dating in 2018 after the “FLIP THE SWITCH” rapper slid into her Instagram DMs. The pair went on their first date to Quavo’s favorite restaurant, Stoney River, then to Magic City, a famous strip club in Atlanta.

Fans seemingly were unsurprised by the revelation. Several people on Twitter equated it to her astrology chart. The rapper was born on July 3, making her zodiac sign Cancer. However, her Venus, which governs courtship and adoration, is Taurus. Many of her fans claimed that folks with that trait are romantic and have a passion for food.

One person wrote, “That’s how extra I am. She’s cancer like me, but the way she doesn’t play about her food and loves seafood, it’s me 🤣.”

Another person commented, “im a taurus venus and i knew my bf was the one when he brought me a variety of foods the first time we ever hung out 😹.” They added, “2 kids & a home later. here we are 💗 Lol.” 

“Saaaaaaame,” a third expressed. “🤣 I will also try and steal food from your plate, playfully, if I like you. Maybe let you steal from my plate if I REALLY like you.”

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
