In 2021, City Girls parted ways, with JT and Yung Miami pursuing solo careers. JT released her debut EP in 2024, accompanied by a tour.
Recently, JT took to social media to respond to criticism from fans, calling her an “embarrassment.” The Miami rap star lashed out at fans associated with stan culture who had been criticizing her recent activities.
JT has become one of the most vocal critics of stan culture, which has significantly shaped modern celebrity fandom. Her issues with stans, particularly those aligned with other female rap stars, have been ongoing. These tensions frequently play out on social media, where JT has clashed with various fanbases. She views their actions as disrespectful, provocative, and indicative of double standards.
The conflict escalated during City Girls’ promotional efforts for their 2023 album RAW. Despite JT’s strong presence online and her solo success with tracks like “No Bars,” many stans dismissed the group’s efforts in favor of other female rappers. JT refused to remain silent, becoming a lightning rod for controversy. She often called out fans who pitted female rappers against one another or used misogynistic language.
Her disputes weren’t limited to anonymous fan accounts. JT’s tweets frequently alluded to specific fanbases, such as the Barbz (Nicki Minaj’s supporters) and the Hotties (Megan Thee Stallion’s fans), without directly naming them. In response, stan accounts would alter her tweets, spread false information, and make her a trending topic for all the wrong reasons.
Unlike some artists who ignore provocations from stans, JT actively engages with them, defending herself in real time. Critics argue this approach only fuels the conflict, while her supporters praise her for being transparent and refusing to be bullied. Her relationship with fans highlights a broader issue in hip-hop, where female rappers are often reduced to mere pawns in fan wars instead of being respected as individuals.
JT’s resistance is not about disliking her fans; it’s about rejecting the toxic elements disguised as support. In an era where social media can either elevate or destroy an artist’s reputation, JT has opted to confront stan culture head-on, regardless of the consequences.
Since the City Girls’ breakup in 2023, fans have been eagerly requesting a new album. However, neither Yung Miami nor JT have yet commented on the possibility of reuniting for another project.
