Just a few days ago during her interview with Angie Martinez for Power 105.1 released on Saturday, Dec. 13, Mariah the Scientist shared that she was ready to “settle down” and eventually have “at least one” child.
“I want to be married,” she said, adding, “Listen, that’s my plan. I can’t speak for everybody, that’s my plan though. That’s what I’m doing.”

The “Spread Thin” singer and the “Go Crazy” rapper have been together for about four years, having been first romantically linked in 2021. The couple reconciled in October after a brief split.
On Nov. 13, outside of the GQ Men of the Year 2025 party, TMZ asked if the couple was still “going strong.” Young Thug replied, “Of course. Just put a baby in her.”
