Yo Gotti and Angela Simmons have been spotted boo’d up at a Memphis Grizzlies game in their first public outing since making their relationship official.
The power couple sat courtside at the Grizzlies’ regular season contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers at the FedExForum in Gotti’s hometown of Memphis on Wednesday evening (January 18).

The lovebirds complemented each other in all-black outfits, with Gotti wearing an Amiri “Bones” varsity jacket and Simmons showing off her curvaceous figure in an Adidas x Balenciaga T-shirt and over-the-knee boots.
The Growing Up Hip Hop star shouted out her new man by posting a picture of them getting cozy courtside at the game, which ended in a narrow 115-114 win for the Grizzlies.
“Long as I’m next to you,” she wrote in her Instagram caption. The CMG mogul added in his own post: “Yea I fuk wit Ja but ion fuk wit 12…Welcome To My City,” saluting Grizzlies star Ja Morant.
Yo Gotti and Angela Simmons confirmed their long-rumored romance on January 1 with a romantic New Year’s Eve photoshoot. Simmons later said she’s “happier than [she’s] ever been” while gushing over her new relationship on Instagram.
Gotti practically manifested the relationship by announcing his love for Simmons — the daughter of Run-DMC legend Rev Run — on his 2015 single “Down in the DM,” which peaked at No. 13 on the Billboard Hot 100.
“And I just followed Angela (Simmons)/ Boy, I got a crush on Angela Simmons/ They like, ‘Damn Gotti, you bold’/ Fuck it, I’m gon’ let the world know (goals),” Gotti spit on the song. He also mentioned Simmons on his 2017 track “Save It For Me,” which dropped shortly after she became engaged to Sutton Tennyson.
“Passed my number to Angela/ I thought I had her/ Her n-gga cuffed her, married, it made me madder/ I respect it, I’m moving on, but the truth is I want her badder/ Maybe me sayin’ her name made him move faster,” he rapped.

Speculation intensified last September when the pair were spotted partying together Simmons’ 35th birthday, before their relationship was all but confirmed when Simmons posted a photo of her sharing a seductive moment with a mystery man at a party two months later.
The man in question was seen wearing the same outfit that Gotti had on at the bash.
