Kevin Gates Snaps On Fans Asking Why His Girlfriend Is 26 While He’s 39 — Compares Older Women to “Used Cars” During IG Live with New Boo Jelenny Tejada 👀🔥

Rapper Kevin Gates, 39, is once again trending for all the wrong reasons after comments he made about women during an Instagram Live session with his 26-year-old girlfriend Jelenny Tejada went viral this week.

While responding to fans questioning his new relationship, Gates made a shocking comparison — likening older women to “used cars” while praising younger women for their “low mileage.”

The explicit rant spread like wildfire across social media, with fans split between defending the rapper’s “honesty” and calling his comments misogynistic and disrespectful toward women, especially given his recent divorce.

The Louisiana native split from longtime wife Dreka Gates earlier in 2025 after nearly two decades together. Since then, Gates has been flaunting his relationship with the Dominican influencer, sharing couple clips and flirtatious exchanges online.

While some fans praised Gates for “keeping it real,” others urged him to show more respect toward women, especially given his own history of public scandals and relationship drama.

As usual, the rapper seemed unbothered by the backlash, later posting a cryptic message to his Instagram Story:

“Ain’t no hate in my heart, I just like what I like.”

Whether you call it toxic honesty or old-school bravado, one thing’s for sure — Kevin Gates knows how to keep the internet talking.
