Kevin Gates and Brittany Renner are once again making waves online, igniting curiosity and controversy after a playful video surfaced earlier this week.
The rapper shared a lighthearted clip showing Renner riding shotgun as they cruised around, singing along to Soul for Real’s “Candy Rain.” Gates added his signature quirky caption:
“If unbothered was a person… hope this makes somebody smile today bae u kno im goofy #Amilio #Alhamdulillah #LoveThisForMe.”
The video quickly went viral, but not everyone was amused. The public display of camaraderie between Gates and Renner immediately sparked drama, especially from a woman known as Pursian P, who claims to be in a relationship with the rapper.
Pursian P Blasts Both Gates and Renner
Pursian P took to social media to accuse Gates of being “manipulative” and “narcissistic,” and she didn’t hold back in criticizing Renner either. She called her a “hypocrite” for allegedly knowing about her relationship with Gates and still reaching out to him. Adding fuel to the fire, she took a jab at Renner’s religious beliefs:
“You preach monogamy, yet you’re involved with a man who doesn’t live it. That’s a contradiction,” she said, referencing Renner’s conversion to Islam. “You turned Muslim because it’s a trend. It’s a mockery of the faith.”
This scathing post has left fans divided, questioning the authenticity of both Renner’s and Gates’ actions.
Renner’s Silence Fuels Rumors
As of now, Brittany Renner has yet to publicly comment on either the video or the ensuing backlash. She also has not shared the video on her own social media accounts, leaving fans to speculate about her relationship with Gates.
The two have a history of generating headlines, particularly in 2022 when they made waves with an explicit viral video revealing intimate details about their alleged past. Their flirtatious banter during a Rolling Loud interview that same year only added fuel to the rumors. Recently, Renner was spotted at an interview with Gates, which further fueled speculations about their connection.
Dreka Gates’ Subtle Response
While Kevin Gates’ estranged wife Dreka Gates has stayed silent on the drama, she did post a calming video of herself walking barefoot in nature, promoting her wellness brand. Her post seemed to be a peaceful reminder to ground oneself amidst the chaos, tagged with a message about resetting and reconnecting with the earth. Notably, Dreka and Kevin no longer follow each other on Instagram, adding to the intrigue about their relationship status.
Though neither has confirmed whether they are officially separated, Kevin Gates has been seen with other women, including wellness coach Jade Ramey, in recent months.
Brittany Renner’s Spiritual Journey Amid Controversy
Renner’s appearance in Gates’ video also comes during a period of personal transformation. Last August, she publicly announced her conversion to Islam, distancing herself from her once-provocative image. Since then, she has openly discussed the challenges of her new lifestyle, including abstaining from alcohol and sex.
“I didn’t come this far to be one of several,” Renner stated in a candid video, emphasizing her commitment to discipline over lust.
Despite this, her recent proximity to Kevin Gates has raised questions about her authenticity, particularly since Gates’ romantic life has been publicly messy. Critics are now questioning the optics of a woman preaching modesty while being associated with a man known for his controversial behavior.
Renner’s Reality TV Return
As if the social media storm wasn’t enough, Renner is also preparing for her return to reality TV, with Season 5 of Basketball Wives set to premiere on May 5. It remains to be seen how her appearance in Gates’ video will affect her public image and the show’s rollout.
Pursian P: “I’m Done Staying Quiet”
Meanwhile, Pursian P has made it clear that she’s tired of being the “cool, laid-back girl” in this drama. Though she claims she knew the risks of dating a rapper, she emphasized that there are boundaries that have now been crossed. The timeline of her relationship with Gates remains unclear, but she’s adamant that his actions are inexcusable.
Kevin Gates Remains Silent (For Now)
As of now, Kevin Gates has yet to comment on the growing drama. But if past behavior is any indication, fans don’t expect this silence to last long. Will Gates address the allegations or let the drama simmer down? Only time will tell.
