Lil Yachty slams rumors he’s dating singer-songwriter Mariah The Scientist while telling fans to keep their weird narratives to themselves.
On Saturday (March 4), Lil Yachty took to Twitter where he responded to claims he’s responsible for Mariah The Scientist “flunking out” of school.

It began, when a fan retweeted a photo of the “All For Me” recording artist — with her middle fingers in the air — while writing, “How you go to school to be an anesthesiologist and ended up flunking out bc of Lil Yachty.”
The comments are aimed at Mariah’s brief stint at St. John’s University in New York, where she was enrolled on a biology scholarship prior to dropping out to pursue a career in music — a decision some fans believed was fueled by her rumored romance with the rapper.

After catching wind of the gossip, Yachty had a few words of his own regarding the alleged relationship.
“Lol why do y’all keep trying me over this woman.. I been [quiet] for so long but plz stop making up this weird ass false narrative,” he fired off in a series of tweets that have since been deleted. “& me and Mariah wasn’t dating at the time……. again!!!! Only time ima say this. Leave me out of it!”
“& the fact Mariah just let all these lies go on is weird to me,” he tweeted. “Y’all really be on d**k about s**t y’all no nothing about…go touch grass.”
Things escalated when a fan accused the “Coffin” rapper of getting a close friend to Mariah pregnant, but Yachty wasn’t having it, claiming the two were never close.
“This is also just not true. Lmao they were never friends…. EVER never met. Rarely ever had a full conversation. [They] just followed each other… U [censored] R WEIRD!!!!!!!!!!!”” he tweeted.
Meanwhile, Mariah The Scientist appeared to confirm the gossip when she chimed in with threats to air out all of his dirty laundry.
“I know a n***a ain’t having sum 2 say bout sum I don’t ever speak on,” she tweeted. “Miles u got to be dizzy I will air u out on this b***h.”
Yachty responded to her Tweet stating, “Def not finna back and forth w u on the internet. I just cleared my name, ur fans r weird.”
Last spring, Lil Yachty made headlines for a similar romance, this time with R&B songbird Justine Skye, after the duo were spotted hanging out together in NYC. Though, the two were quick to squash the rumors, alleging fake news. “When blogs be loud & wrong,” they said in a TikTok video shutting down the hearsay.
