One of the most influential music producers of our time, Metro Boomin, is facing a scandal that has hit his personal life like a shockwave. While he is known for making beats that top charts and collaborating with major artists, the world is now focused on Metro Boomin due to cheating allegations on his long-time girlfriend, Chelsea Cotton, and the startling claim that his side chick named Shomari Amere is pregnant.
The drama all started after a friend of Shomari Amere took to Instagram as sirenxwellness, sharing a string of intimate photos claiming to show Amere and Metro Boomin together. The images and videos quickly went viral, churning up a storm of much speculation and outrage. According to the Instagram post, Metro Boomin—who goes by the birth name Leland Wayne—took up an affair with Amere while still in a relationship with Chelsea Cotton. Not only were the photos posted, but there was also an insinuation of a closer relationship between the two. The friend seemed quite zealous in blowing the cover off of the affair and went on to say that Metro Boomin had cheated on his girlfriend, Chelsea Cotton, whom he had been dating since 2011.

Things, however, took a dramatic turn when the same friend leaked pictures claiming that Shomari Amere is pregnant. The new development has further complicated the scandal by indicating that Metro Boomin’s affair with Amere could have resulted in a very significant consequence.
Up till now, Metro Boomin has remained mum over the allegations. No form of statement or reply, official or otherwise, has come out from the producer regarding the accusations or, for that matter, Amere’s pregnancy claims. His silence breeds more speculation and rumors as everyone—fans and the media alike—waits with ears cocked for any official word from Metro Boomin himself or his camp.
Metro Boomin and Chelsea Cotton started dating in 2011—pretty long for celebrity relationships when thought of with respect to their lifespan. Their relationship has not been devoid of scandals, one such being when Chelsea was mentioned in a diss track (Family Matters) by Drake. He rapped,
“Just like how Metro n-gga slimed him for his main squeeze,”
Metro Boomin, as that situation evolved, made his response known and denied everything the song accused his partner of. The latest scandal merely adds another chapter to their story, begging questions about the future of the vexed relationship and personal lives.
Beyond the headlines and frenzy on social media, this scandal carries real emotional and reputational effects for the people involved. This case of infidelity and the possible pregnancy will affect Metro Boomin’s image in front of his audience and his personal relationships.
This now exposes Chelsea Cotton, who all these past years has been the supportive partner, to emotional turmoil in dealing with these revelations. On the other side, Shomari Amere finds herself intangled in a high profile case scandal that may affect her reputation and personal life.
