Kevin Gates wasted no time hitting the booth to address trending conversations surrounding his name! The rapper was recently in the cozy company of former Love & Hip-Hopcastmate Jojo Zarur. Immediately after, questions began swirling about the status of his marriage to Dreka Gates. And according to his lyrics, things between the pair might be on the rocky side!
About midway through the Super Generalfreestyle, Kevin seemingly threw dirt on a previous romantic gesture. In 2020, the rapper penned a track for Dreka titled with her name. It featured footage of their wedding, two children, baecation, and everyday moments like car rides. But on Thursday, his lyrics indicated that the gesture was nothing more than a gimmick for her benefit.
“…Made the Dreka song, lied to the world while trying to protect her image,” Kevin rapped. “Tell me you love me, I say it back; back of my mind, I’m indifferent.”
Two days ago, a video surfaced of Kevin spending quality time with Jojo on a city night. The footage shows Kevin wrapping his arm around Jojo’s waist after taking pictures with fans. That same night, Jojo and Kevin engaged in conversation during a live video at what appeared to be a dinner table.
The status of their relationship remained unclear to the public. By the following day, Kevin took to his Instagram account with a slight warning.
“I’ve been real positive with you guys and I just want you to know one thing,” Kevin said. “I’m not none of these old p***y a** rappers that walk around with security b***h a** n****s, if y’all play with anything I love…I hope everyone hears me, I’m ready to do a life sentence.”
Kevin didn’t make it clear whom the warning was about, but it’s obvious Jojo felt the message. She reposted it to her Instagram Story with the message “play with me if u want to.”
By Thursday morning, Jojo let The Shade Roomknow that her encounter with Kevin is recent, but not new. In fact, Jojo clarified that she’s known Kevin for “over a decade.” She revealed that they’ve always been “great friends,” but recently reconnected. The former reality star confirmed that not only is she single, but so is Kevin!
Meanwhile, Dreka was out here tending her fruitful garden this morning. No word yet on how she feels aboutSuper Generalor Jojo’s claims of her hubby being a single man!
