Saweetie and Lil Baby reignite dating rumours after fans spot major clue in new photo
Filing in for Doja Cat, who dropped put after two members of her team were diagnosed with COVID-19, the Icy Girl hitmaker took to the stage to perform all her hits including Tap In and Best Friend.
But her performance has been ridiculed online, with people calling out the Bay Area beauty for forgetting the lyrics, her weak dancing skills, as well as her poor breath control.

Many commented that not only did she sound like she was winded but she was stiff, saying that her rumoured BBL didn't help with the dance moves.
Here are some of the reactions from fans on her performance below.
I love that Saweetie is a trier. You can see she wants to be better but her/her team need to be realistic. You can’t have her on big big SNL, iHeartRadio etc. having her sound like she’s doing karaoke to her own music. No amount of prettiness will cover a bad performance.

this post wasn’t to come off as an attack, but we expect more now that Saweetie’s Grammy-nominated.

there’s a bunch of newer females that are lyrically sickening and eating performances up already w/ less recognition.
no breath control and mediocre performances after 4+ years? pic.twitter.com/VXVs3De7u5
Not so hot take: Saweetie can’t perform without being out of breath because of the crap she eats yet people assume she’s healthy. Those same people strain their voices yelling about Lizzo’s size yet she can run and perform circles around Miss 6 Piece Nugget Meal https://t.co/LhNaDOhsAf
