City Girls fans thought they were witnessing the end of an era after members JT and Yung Miami went at each other’s weaves on X, formerly known as Twitter. In the end, the City Girls remained united after squashing the beef which was due to a misunderstanding.
Monday (April 8) was a wild day for many reasons. A large portion of the United States was witness to a solar eclipse, J. Cole walked back his diss of Kendrick Lamar, and the tensions spread to large factions of fans online.
From what we can determine, Saucy Santana wrote on X that he had some issues to address regarding Diddy via an upcoming television series to which JT responded by saying that she better not be mentioned. This sparked a light back and forth between the pair. Yung Miami, who is best friends with Santana, then suggested JT has been “sneak dissing” her.
All hell broke out from that point on with JT writing, “It’ll be too much for me to tweet! I will like a sit down…. Caresha please! And this time leave Santana home! I know I come off crazy but never in my life did no wack sh*t to this girl she literally enjoys seeing me being dragged when ppl show me love she goes crazy & call it a hate train! But like I said we can sit & talk about it!”
JT also wrote that she was “for sure there” for Yung Miami and added that “y’all will see this in time that I’m not, never was & never will be the problem!”
There were a lot more exchanges, including Yung Miami saying that fans online have caused the rift which put JT and her at odds and if you saw what was said before it was all deleted, that part seems to be true.
The beef ended after Yung Miami, using JT’s first name, wrote, “Jatavia I love you. I’m moving on!”
In a quote tweet, JT added, “I love you more [heart emoji] I actually love you the most!”
While the City Girls look to be poised to talk their sh*t together on stage again soon, fans online had plenty to say about their beef and how they made up. We’ve got replies below.

JT and Lil Uzi Vert are one of Hip-Hop’s most popular couples and have had their share of ups and downs throughout their romance. Things seemingly got heated over the weekend after footage surfaced of JT tossing her phone at Uzi, and some online are speculating that it’s over Ice Spice.
JT and Lil Uzi Vert were in attendance at the 2023 BET Awards in Los Angeles, Calif. on Sunday (July 25), another star-studded affair for the long-running network and brand. While the affair was largely drama free, that wasn’t the case among those sitting front row.
Some online are contending that JT’s anger toward Uzi was over a line in a new song that they performed at the BET Awards where Ice Spice’s name is mentioned in the closing bar but it doesn’t seem like he was flirting with the Bronx rapper.
Footage that has surfaced showed JT calling Lil Uzi Vert a “groupie” and “b*tch” before tossing the phone at them and having to be restrained by others in their row. Another video showed Uzi seemingly pleading with their partner but the City Girls star wasn’t having any of it.
The footage, now since viral, hasn’t been addressed by the couple nor Ice Spice so far but that hasn’t stopped Twitter from adding their investigative bent to the happenings. What can be confirmed is that JT and Uzi left the venue together shortly after their spat but it was tension in the air.
Check out the reactions below.

Fresh off his energetic performance of “Just Wanna Rock” on The Tonight Show, Lil Uzi Vert told TMZ that he supports the decision of his City Girls rapper girlfriend, JT to start therapy. He added that everyone should “embrace themselves.”
JT shared on Twitter that she is “eager” to start therapy while encouraging her fans to do the same.
Many of her fans congratulated the 30-year-old City Girl rapper on the social media site adding that her public decision could “inspire” others.
Lil Uzi’s support may come from his own journey into wellness. He announced earlier this month that he is sober and that the songs from his newest release “The Pink Tape,” were all born out of his sobriety.
He told TMZ that being sober allowed him to choose better song topics and encouraged other rappers to do the same, saying, “It’ll change your life.”
The couple has had an on-again-off-again relationship since first being romantically linked in 2021. But, earlier this year, she gushed about her admiration for Uzi telling Angie Martinez that she is “lucky” and “fortunate.”
“I can say Uzi is a great man, no matter how the internet tries to paint Uzi,” the Miami native told Angie with a big smile, according to Madame Noire. She added, “I’m so lucky and fortunate to have somebody like him because he’s so inspiring. When I see him in his bag, I’m like ‘I gotta get in my bag.’”

In today’s episode of Tapioca Tears And The Poor Souls Who Supply Them, an apparently bi-racial interviewer conducted an awkward, cringy and second-hand embarrassment-inducing interview with the rap duo City Girls, got dragged for it by Black people and tried to blame the dragging on Black people’s alleged attitudes towards those who aren’t “full Black,” not her deplorable interviewing skills.
First, let’s start with the interview, because, bruh—what was even going on here?
Tamera Kissen, the interviewer who Blavity described as an “influencer,” caught up with City Girls after their set at Hip Hop festival Rolling Loud in California. I would say that at some point, the interview went downhill, but really, there was never a hill. This interview started on the ground and just continued to sink.
From Blavity:
During the interview, Yung Miami and Kissen realized they had met before. However, they were unable to recall the details of their last encounter. An awkward silence followed as the pair tried to remember how they met.
The conversation continued to spiral down as Kissen threw out random questions throughout the clip.
Many social media users followed up with criticism, saying Kissen doesn’t know how to conduct herself professionally.
In other words, she got dragged because the “interview” was drag-worthy.
According to the Shade Room, Kissen had an interesting take on why Black people reacted so negatively to an interview that would obviously only receive a negative response.
“The community really don’t f**k with you if you ain’t full black, let’s just be honest,” she wrote in a since-deleted tweet.
Nah sis, if you really want to “be honest,” you don’t get to throw Black people under the bus because everyone who saw your janky-a** interview wanted to know what in the amateur hour was happening.
I mean, she spent the first 30 seconds of the “interview” going back and forth with Miami about where they knew each other from like they had just bumped into each other at Walmart. Then Kissen’s first question out the gate was, “How many broke men have you let hit?”
Wait, sorry, that was her second question. Her first question to the rap duo was, “Did you know it was the 50th day of Hip Hop today?” to which the City Girls answered “no,” to which the supposedly partially Black woman interviewing a Hip Hop act responded, “Me neither. They told me to talk about it.”
Now, I’m going to give Kissen the benefit of the doubt and assume she meant “50th anniversary of Hip Hop.” Still, she doesn’t know why the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop is important, but she’s upset the Black community doesn’t take her seriously, huh? I mean, OK.)
But nah, it’s probably just because she’s biracial. That tracks.
Honestly, you can tell Kissen hasn’t been around enough “full Black” people, because if she had, she would have known hitting “send” on that alleged tweet would get her dragged even further.
I mean, if we want to really keep it one hundred, blaming Black people for your own inadequacy is some white people sh*t. So, maybe that’s the real problem.
