Moneybagg and Ari never hesitate to show off the lavish gifts they often buy for one another—presents that reach into hundreds of thousands of dollars. However, when Ari bought Moneybagg 28.8 acres of land for his birthday, some people believed she should wait until they married to give him such a gift. The hosts of The Real agreed.

Ari was asked about the hosts' opinions regarding her purchase for her Rap star boyfriend while on the red carpet of the 2021 BET Hip Hop Awards.

"I'm in love. I love my man," said Ari. "I feel like everybody just need to focus on what they doin' and who they doin' it with and what makes them happy. I feel like we in a different time zone right now, like the world is completely different, so it's not like it was when they was growing up. It's different now.
