When I started making music, it was for my ex-fiance because he was paying for everything, like my food and my clothes where I lived. He was like 8 years my senior, so I was so codependent, and he was so talented, a fashion designer, and so brilliant.
Which song did SZA write for her ex?
She opened up in an interview with Hot 97 that the song Nobody Gets Me was about her ex-fiance and their break up and how she felt like nobody understood her the way her ex-fiance did. According to her, he was supportive of her, and when they broke up, she felt like she would never find someone like him.
This particular song, in its entirety, is a story about my ex-fiance and how we went through all these arguments and we broke up. When we first broke up, it was terrible, and I just felt like I was going to be doomed to be in hell for the rest of my life because nobody understood me the way that he did, and nobody motivated me like the way he did

So It was actually 2009 lol… in this case, a year of poetic rap license mattered lol. I think he just innocently rhymed 08. Wait. Wait. Anybody who really knows me and was around during this time can confirm... it's all love, all peace…. I just didn't want anybody to think anything underage or creepy was happening. Completely innocent. Lifetimes ago.
In an interview with Audacy Check-In, she talked more about the brief relationship with the famous rapper. She confirmed that they are okay now and said that the relationship they had back then was brief and that they were young.
We talked to each other when I was a lot younger, and he was a lot younger. And we are cool; we've always been cool. It's never been weird; it didn't come out of the blue. And he let me know… I didn't know that it was a song at 21.
