Big Sean and Jhene Aiko were one of the most iconic power couples of the music industry, having been together for 10 years.

They first met all the way back in 2012, but just as friends and music collaborators, releasing their hit ‘Beware’ whilst both of them were in relationships.

It wasn’t until 2016 that the pair debuted their romance, following their iconic formation of the duo Twenty88, releasing their much-loved album by the same name.

Whilst they did supposedly break up in 2019, they seemed to be endgame lovers, always coming back to each other and presenting as true loves.
