Youngboy Never Broke Again is currently taking a much-deserved break after working to become one of the most consistent rappers in the game. If it felt like he was releasing new music every other week, that’s probably because he literally was. His fans were spoiled and now, he’s laying low and letting all of that material marinate.

It’s no secret that there are people who really do not like the 20-year-old. He’s got a large number of opps who constantly come after him. This week, it appears as though he narrowly missed a fatal encounter with one of them.

In a video shared by DJ Akademiks, the rapper incoherently speaks about an alleged drive-by shooting that he seeming escaped. At least, that’s what people are deciphering from the short clip.

“I could have died from a drive-by yesterday,” says NBA Youngboy in the clip. Although his speech is not entirely clear, that’s what his fans are making out. 

The troubled star has been popping up periodically on one of his motherly figure’s live-streams, previewing new music and speaking about his day-to-day activities, which supposedly include nearly dying in alleged shootings.

Thankfully, NBA Youngboy is safe and sound. He’s one of the most popular rappers in the game and it’s probably not too safe for him in the streets anymore.

NLE Choppa has been trying to get away from the Youngboy Never Broke Again comparisons for the last couple of years but they keep on coming back. This time, Tekashi 6ix9ine was the one to dish them out.

Last night, both Tekashi 6ix9ine and NLE Choppa released new songs. 6ix9ine linked up with Nicki Minaj for their highly-anticipated single "Trollz." NLE Choppa also dropped what feels like the millionth version of his biggest hit, titled "Shotta Flow 5."

At this point, it's just become a given for Youngboy Never Broke Again to top the charts on YouTube every week. For damn-near two years, he has been the most popular artist on the platform, regularly doubling artists that are of similar stature to him. Some rappers have come close to surpassing him and finally, it looks like we've got a new King of YouTube.

Uh oh... the game in trouble. Lil Baby has officially hit a new high-point in terms of his popularity on one important streaming platform, surpassing the almighty Youngboy Never Broke Again in numbers.

Usually, when these charts are released, NBA Youngboy's name sits comfortably on top of everybody else but this week, he drops down to #2. Last week, the Baton Rouge rapper clocked in 46.7 million views while Lil Baby managed to earn 51.2 million. 

The only other person that got relatively close to beating YB was Future, who finished with 3 million fewer views than the 20-year-old.

Considering Lil Baby's growth to a superstar level this year, he may actually remain on top for a while. Especially since Youngboy Never Broke Again announced his hiatus from music.

Are you surprised by any of the artists on this week's chart?

Yaya Mayweather is currently under investigation for allegedly stabbing Lapattra Jacobs, one of her boyfriend Youngboy Never Broke Again‘s baby mamas. The strange love triangle attack has Mayweather facing life in prison and, as we wait for more updates on her legal status, the 20-year-old is sharing boo’d up pictures with her rapper beau.

Taking to Instagram Stories, Yaya Mayweather posted a new photo of her and Youngboy Never Broke Again, confirming that they’re still together and choosing a strange song to showcase at the top.

The photo was accompanied by one of Summer Walker‘s tracks from her debut album. Her collaboration with Jhené Aiko, titled “I’ll Kill You”, is actually a beautiful love song. However, the title of the song is a little questionable for somebody in Yaya Mayweather’s position to be sharing on the internet. After all, she did just allegedly threaten the life of Lapattra Jacobs, leaving her paralyzed in one of her arms. She probably doesn’t want to be sharing songs with titles that seem like murder threats…

Are you surprised that Yaya and Youngboy have made it this far or do you think they’re the real deal? Are we looking at the next Ike and Tina?

Renowned American boxer Adrien Broner revealed the tracklist for his upcoming project Still Adjusting To Fame on Instagram today and it’s truly a star-studded affair.

The tracklist boasts features from heavy-hitters like Young Thug, Youngboy Never Broke Again, Meek Mill, Rick Ross, and even new Lil Baby and Yo Gotti’s signee 42 Dugg. 

The last project AB released was a mixtape back in 2017 called Wanted, but it seems like the part-time rapper is ready to step into the rap ring again. Considering the impressive features AB locked in for this new project, the album may be something to keep on your radar.

Aside from boxing and rapping, Broner also occupies his time with run-ins with the law. In just the past six months, Broner has collected a slew of legal problems. Back in March, Broner was arrested at Miami beach on DUI charges. In February, the boxer was arrested at the MGM Grand. In December, Broner was ordered to pay over $800,000 to a sexual assault victim. 

Are you excited about AB’s new project? It’s looking set to be pretty special.

Congratulations are in order for Quavo Huncho! The world has been finding inventive ways to celebrate the Class of 2020 after the COVID-19 pandemic shut down their plans to celebrate their accomplishments. Proms were canceled, graduations were relegated to being online or nixed altogether, and students were lamenting not being able to get together with their peers after finishing their school years. What no one knew was that Migos rapper Quavo was locked in and doing a bit of studying of his own, and on Thursday (May 21), he shared that he’d officially received his high school diploma.

“Finally Can Say I Graduated High School Class Of QUARANTINE 2020,” Quavo wrote on Instagram. “We Lit ? Now What College Should I Go To?  And To Celebrate We Gonna Drop SMASH TONIGHT ?? BERKMAR HIGH NAWFSIDE BABY.” Then, the rapper shared that Migos would be dropping their YoungBoy Never Broke Again-assisted single “Need It” tonight to kick off the celebration.

Quavo was a football star at Berkmar High School nearly 10 years ago, but just months shy of his graduation, he dropped out of school. This has been a moment long in the making for the accomplished rapper, so we congratulate him on completing his goals. Check out his posts below.

Astute fans have already reasoned that Offset, Quavo, and Takeoff have been cooking something up, if the release of three singles is to be believed. And while the jury remains out on whether we'll be seeing the recently-teased Quarantine Mixtape anytime soon, it can't be denied that the Migos have been far more active than usual. In fact, they seem to be relishing in the idea of stirring up hype, taking to Twitter to tease an unreleased banger with YoungBoy Never Broke Again.

Earlier this year, in January to be specific, Offset shared a behind-the-scenes teaser of a back-and-forth track with YoungBoy -- one that found them trading back-and-forth bars over a flipped sample of 50 Cent's "Get In My Car." Though information surrounding the actual song is scarce, many responded rather positively to the early snippet -- to the point where it's left a lasting impression on some. Today, one such fan actively asked the Migos whether we'd be seeing Offset and YoungBoy's collab anytime soon, prompting the trio to let fly a cryptic response: the googly eye emoji.

Look, it's not exactly much to go on -- analyzing emojis through an archeological lens is seldom fruitful, though it's better than nothing in these dire times. Perhaps it can be read as a simple "it's coming," it's only a matter of when. Either way, it's clear the Migos are well aware of the demand for that particular banger, so don't be surprised to see it surface if and when the Migos decide to drop off their new mixtape. 

Getting a co-sign from Jay-Z probably feels surreal for an artist that has been hustling to make it for years. Known globally as one of the best rappers of all time, the Roc Nation head honcho is respected as one of the premier faces in the music industry. His ideas surpass music though, heading over into all aspects of sports and entertainment.

As we near the midway point of the year (already!?). Jay-Z gathered together a list of his personal favorite songs of 2020 so far, showing love to some of the usual characters, and also taking notice of some younger talents.

The list starts off with Lil Baby and "Emotionally Scarred," before the Atlanta rapper appears again with "Sum 2 Prove" and "Grace" with 42 Dugg. Jay-Z is also clearly a big fan of what Polo G has been bringing to the table, shouting out the rising star for "Heartless" with Mustard. At #3, his wife makes an appearance on the remix of Megan Thee Stallion's "Savage." Elsewhere on the 20-song gathering, Jay Electronica makes several appearances, which makes total sense given Hov's involvement in the release of his debut album.

Jay-Z was also busy listening to some of the newer releases, including Future's High Off Life, of which he included "Hard To Choose One." Drake and The Weeknd earn their spots before Westside Gunn, Boldy James, Benny The Butcher, and Conway of Griselda impress the legend.

Check out the full playlist below.

At the top of this week, Future announced his intentions to release his eighth studio album, High Off Life. With DJ Esco as the executive producer, fans of the Fire Marshall were instantly excited to see what kind of magic would be delivered unto us. After a short wait, High Off Life is here. 

As we all spin through our first plays with the new album, Future seems to have come up with the formula once again, setting trends and opening up as nobody else can. Packed with twenty-one songs — some of which were previously released like “Life Is Good” and “100 Shooters” — there is a lot to dive into this morning.

High Off Life includes features from some of Future’s favorite people. We’ve got verses from Travis Scott, Drake, Young Thug, Youngboy Never Broke Again, his signee Doe Boy, Meek Mill, DaBaby, Lil Baby, Lil Uzi Vert, and Lil Durk. Clearly, everybody wanted in on this puzzle, providing their best skills for the new album.

This is the eighth studio album from Future, who generally drops anywhere from 1-3 projects in any given year. It was distributed by Epic Records and Freebandz.

Let us know what you think of the new album!

There has been quite a bit of drama surrounding NBA YoungBoy over the last couple of years. He was locked up for a time and upon his release, people were sure that the young rapper would walk a straight and narrow path, staying out of trouble as he rebuilt his career. For a time, it seemed as if that was exactly what YoungBoy had on his agenda, but as time has progressed, the rapper has found himself at the center of a scandal involving the women in his life.

We’ve reported on the allegations that NBA YoungBoy’s on-again-off-again girlfriend Yaya Mayweather, daughter to boxing champion Floyd Mayweather, stabbed the rapper’s ex Lapattra Jacobs. While there haven’t been many details released to the public, Yaya was arrested and her mugshot circulated in the media. Recently, Lapattra shared her injuries in a video, and now, she’s taken to her Instagram page to show support to the father of her child, NBA YoungBoy.

Lapattra hopped on her Instagram Story to share clips of YoungBoy rapping about the media being in his business and she even posted a video of him, as well. People have chastised her for sticking by his side while he’s been showing off Yaya online, but Lapattra hasn’t wavered in standing by NBA YoungBoy. Check it out a clip of her IG Story below.
