NBA YoungBoy Secures Massive Motown Partnership

NBA YoungBoy Reveals What He’s Doing Behind Bars




Southern rapper is staying busy behind bars, whether it’s making new deals or grinding audio fire. New footage has revealed what the jailed hip-hop star has been up to as he awaits trial.

The Never Broke Again star has been recording music in prison. A video of him turning up on a jail phone shows just how dedicated YB is to the grind.

NBA YoungBoy Rival Was Killed In 2017


In addition to making new audio fire, the Louisiana native has been dealing with his own legal problems — he’s currently in jail facing federal weapons charges — but he’s also indirectly linked to a murder case involving a rival artist.

Deandre Fields was charged with second-degree murder in the 2017 shooting death of local Baton Rouge rapper Gee Money back in May 2021. Fields is affiliated with NBA YoungBoy’s Never Broke Again crew, while Gee Money was part of the rival Top Boy Gorilla group. The two factions have been beefing for years. Fields pleaded not guilty on Thursday, and his next court date is set for this month.

Fields’ arrest warrant provided insight into what started the beef between Burton (Gee Money) and Gaulden (NBA YoungBoy), saying Burton released a song that contained “derogatory lyrics” about Gaulden’s sister. Gaulden responded with a social media post and the bad blood escalated from there, the warrant says. (The Advocate)
