‘This Is the Fine Saweeeeetie EYE KNOW’: Saweetie’s Coachella Look Has Fans Forgetting All About Her Peekaboo Red Dress

Saweetie may have already solidified her spot as the “best dressed” artist at this year’s Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.

The “Icy Girl” rapper did not disappoint as she shared several photos of her entire ensemble from day one on Instagram over the weekend. In her photos, Saweetie can be seen wearing a brown poster-girl leather top called, “Phoebe,” and brown custom leather pants designed by Stinson Haus.

Her voluminous blowed-out blond hair was cut into layers and gorgeously rested on her shoulders.

“howdy,” the 29-year-old wrote as her caption. 

Saweetie’s stunning photos received over 785,000 likes, with over 4,900 comments hyping up her latest ensemble.

Several celebrities such as Chloe Bailey, “City Girls” rapper JT, rapper Flo Milli and more quickly swarmed Saweetie’s post and sent over an array of heart eyes. 

There were also a few comments that applauded the “Tap In” artist’s look while ostensibly shading her previous outfit, that didn’t go over well with some fans.

Last week, the California native shared a series of photos that showed her in a gorgeous red gown that gave fans a sneak peek at her backside. This salacious look prompted fans to pen up lengthy opinions on why they either were or weren’t in favor of her outfit. 

While her dress may seem rather extra, Saweetie is known for going against fashion norms and being unafraid to show some skin.  

During day two of Coachella, the Bay Area rapper traded in her blond hair for a long, rainbow-colored style. The pastel-pink, yellow, neon green, purple, and blue made their presence known as she rocked a solid blue denim set.

On the second day, Saweetie joined rapper Latto on the stage for an epic performance of their 2019 rap single, “B–t From Da Souf (Remix),” which also features Miami rapper Trina.

Still independent.

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.
