Rapper EST Gee joined Angela Yee, GiGi Maguire, and Jordy Jor for a special Valentine’s Day edition of Lip Service, where he opened up about relationships, personal growth, and his latest music. Known for his raw lyricism and street-hardened persona, the Louisville native gave fans a rare glimpse into his private world.
While EST Gee doesn’t consider himself traditionally romantic, he describes himself as “considerate” when it comes to relationships. He prefers to keep his personal life under wraps, steering clear of pillow talk and public discussions about his partners.
The rapper, who is a father to multiple boys, joked that “if it’s a girl, it ain’t mine.” When it comes to women’s looks, he gravitates towards a more natural appearance—minimal makeup and simple nail styles.
