GQ Magazine 2/10/21: The energy is completely different when I talk to Naomi and Cordae together. Getting them to answer a very basic question about how they met takes almost 10 minutes. They’re giggling. They’re blushing. They’re constantly contradicting each other in a way that feels endless. It’s adorable. But trying to put together a coherent timeline of their romantic backstory is tough. Historians will have to chart their relationship as if it were the Big Bang. The only thing we’re fairly certain about is that it happened. The basic story, as I understand it, is Cordae and Naomi linked up two years ago and exchanged phone numbers. After some back-and-forth, they agreed to meet for a first date at, of all places, Staples Center, for a Clippers game.
