The Shade Room obtained a clip from Lil Baby’s upcoming appearance on the Big Facts podcast in which he denies Saweetie was sitting in his lap in a photo she posted late last year.
Asked if it was him “in that picture with Saweetie,” he immediately delivered a “nah” and shared a laugh with the co-hosts, admitting he does “have to like, move a certain way…and I be trying my best.”
Internet sleuths presented their case in an attempt to prove Lil Baby is the mystery man, pointing to their practically identical shoes and pants.
Baby has repeatedly denied any involvement with Saweetie, even when evidence has seemed to prove otherwise. In November, Hollywood Unlocked reported he dropped $100,000 on her when they went to the Chanel store in New York City. A source also said the two went on a date ahead of the “Icy Grl” rapper’s Saturday Night Live debut.
Lil Baby didn’t address the report directly at the time, but did tweet his relationship status, writing, “Baby not dating NO ONE!! I’m single!”
As rumors were swirling, Saweetie’s ex-boyfriend Quavo posted what many believed to be a veiled response to their possible romance. “Ain’t trippin we can swap it out,” he said.
Lil Baby appeared to address the Saweetie rumors and Quavo’s response on the track “Stand On It” where he raps, “I don’t want your bitch, we can’t swap out/They ain’t on shit, tell ‘em pop out.”
Baby recently made it clear he has no issue with Quality Control labelmates Migos, saying, “They know I ain’t got nothing going on with them.”
