Who Is Kid Buu? New Details About Blac Chyna's Ex-Boyfriend And Their Strange Relationship
After a violent altercation in Hawaii, Blac Chyna is hoping to spread "positive vibes."
instagram Blac Chyna has had her fair share of relationship drama over the past few years.
The model and entrepreneur dated rapper Tyga and had a son with him in 2012, but then split in 2014 when rumor had it that Tyga was seeing Kylie Jenner.
Shortly thereafter, Blac Chyna struck it up with Jenner’s half-brother, Rob Kardashian. They had a daughter together in 2016, and then were on-and-off for a while in 2017 until Rob posted explicit pictures of Blac Chyna. She got a restraining order against him.
Now, Blac Chyna, 30, is reportedly with a new boyfriend, Kid Buu, 30 — but their relationship status at the moment is complicated.
The couple recently took a trip to Hawaii, but it wasn’t entirely a vacation in paradise. On January 28, the Honolulu Police Department were called to the Ritz-Carlton Residences to stop and investigate a physical altercation between the couple. Sources told TMZ that in retaliation to Blac Chyna scratching him, Kid Buu “slammed her against the wall several times and choked her.”
Blac Chyna’s other exes are much more recognizable, but who is Kid Buu? He’s no stranger to drama through his career and Instagram.
1. He’s a rapper best known for “Death to SoundCloud.”
Buu’s viral song “Death to SoundCloud” was released in the summer of 2018 and remains his biggest hit.
His album “Blind For Love” came out in 2018. He most recently released “Momma” on Dec. 21, 2018.
He featured some big-name artists in some of his earlier songs, including “White Vans” with Migos and “Eastside” with DJ Khaled.
2. He’s been through many name changes.
The Jersey City native was born Markquez Lao Santiago, but has had some different stage names since entering the rapping scene. He started with “Humongous The God,” and also used “HXTXG.”
Eventually, he adopted “Kid Buu.” The name comes from Dragon Ball Z, an anime that originally aired in the 90s.
3. Recently, he made a dig at Alexis Skyy on Instagram.
Earlier this month, Kid Buu took to Instagram to post some jabs at the reality star, entrepreneur and model (who seems to have beef with Chyna) on his Instagram story.
He had been under fire for allegedly cheating on Chyna by sliding into other women’s DMs. Shortly afterward, she announced she was single.
Buu’s response was to talk about Alexis Skyy, who he called a Blac Chyna look-alike, and claimed she was with Chyna’s ex Rob Kardashian for clout. He later apologized.
Kid Buu is likely the last thing on Skyy’s mind, as her one-year-old daughter with Fetty Wap had emergency surgery on Jan. 27.
4. So are Buu and Chyna still together?
Chyna posted about “positive vibes” on Monday, which suggests that she has moved on. However, sources told People she was still partying it up with Buu and friends on Monday.
Buu, on the other hand, made an Instagram post with a telling caption: I wish I could travel time and erase the day that I met you. #GetBackMyWastedTime.”
Chyna is in a bad spot with both of her exes, then — Rob Kardashian is reportedly furious with her for leaving their daughter Dream behind when she was supposed to have her for the weekend she jetted off to Hawaii.
