YoungBoy started writing and making music around the age of fourteen, eventually dropping his first mixtape Life Before Fame in April of 2015.
YoungBoy started to gain recognition when he dropped his projects Mind Of A Menace 3, Before I Go, and 38 Baby, but gained the most recognition for his hit song โ38 Baby.โ
Shortly after the success of โ38 Babyโ Young Boy was arrested on November 28, 2016, and was charged with two counts of attempted second-degree murder in connection with a drive-by shooting which occurred November 7, 2016. YoungBoy ended up being sentenced to a ten-year suspended prison sentence after serving six months in prison.
After YoungBoy was released from jail, he dropped โUntouchableโ which is one of his biggest hits to date. Following the release of โUntouchable,โ YoungBoy released AI YoungBoy on August 4, 2017.
Later on, in 2017 YoungBoy ended the year by dropping Ainโt Too Long and started 2018 by releasing his debut studio album, Until Death Call My Name.
Nowadays YoungBoy has come up with more famous tracks such as โDrawing Symbols,โ โLil Top,โ โHouse Arrest Tingzโ and โAroundโ. These have appeared on albums as AI Youngboy II, Still Flexin', Still Steppin' and Top.
On March 25, 2021, the rapper was taken into custody by the FBI on an outstanding federal warrant for drug and weapon charges which date back to 2016. While locked up, YoungBoyโs team released the rapperโs third studio album, Sincerely, Kentrell, on September 24, 2021: it was originally set to be released in May of the same year. Nearly a month after, on October 22, YoungBoy was released from jail on a $500K bond and is currently placed on house arrest in Utah.
Ending 2021, YoungBoy partnered with the fellow Louisiana native, Birdman to present the two artists' joint mixtape, From The Bayou which would peak at #19 on the Billboard 200.
Beginning 2022 to a ferocious start, YoungBoy would begin to diss King Von on songs such as โBring The Hook,โ and โFish Scale.โ These songs would soon appear on YoungBoyโs eighteenth mixtape, Colors which would later peak at #2 on the Billboard 200.
Later in the year, just a month afterward, YoungBoy would find himself in a viral controversy with the Chicago native, Lil Durk as both of them exchanged brutal disses from Durkโs โAHHH HA,โ to YoungBoyโs โI Hate YoungBoyโ โ both regarding the death of King Von.
Following his hastily start to 2022, YoungBoy would partner up with DaBaby to present the duoโs joint mixtape, BETTER THAN YOU in March. The mixtape would later peak at #10 on the Billboard 200, this would mark YoungBoyโs ninth top ten.
On April 1, 2022, continuing his victorious run, YoungBoy would release The Last Slimeto Sampler, a sample album for his August release, The Last Slimeto. This album would mark YoungBoyโs final album with Atlantic Records.
On July 15, 2022, YoungBoy was found not guilty of his federal guns charge. In a interview on Instagram, YoungBoy announced that he and his team were planning to go on tour.
As planned, on August 5, 2022, YoungBoy released The Last Slimeto which would mark his last album with Atlantic Records, completing the contract. The album would also peak at #1 on the Billboard 200 marking his fifth #1 album. The project would also break a tie with Taylor Swift as it scored a #1 album in each of the past four years.
On September 6, 2022, YoungBoy released Realer 2 as a surprise release, it is presented as a sequel to his December 2018, Realer. Just over a month following the release of Realer 2, YoungBoy released the Juvenile-influenced mixtape, 3800 Degrees which would peak at #12 on the Billboard 200. Two weeks prior to the release of 3800 Degrees, YoungBoy would release yet another mixtape hosted by DJ Drama as a part of his Gangsta Grillz series titled Maโ I Got A Family.
Through Billboard, on October 24, 2022, it was announced that following YoungBoyโs departure from Atlantic Records, beginning 2023, he would release music under a joint venture deal between his own Never Broke Again and Motown Records.

Northside (I'm ready to go home right now)
Rich, where the drank at, fool?
(I ain't take one out the top, nigga, I'm known to take one out, bitch)
I-10 spinnin' and I swerve on the block (Northside, skrrt, skrrt)
I got youngins on the corner strapped with Glocks watchin' for opps
Got plenty shooters, got plenty guns, how many drugs? I'd say a lot
Who they fuck they thought this was? We ain't moving no cars
Bitch, this me out here (it's me)
He can try and that nigga gon' die, go to playin' with them rods
We gon' put him to sleep out here (bah)
Old snake ass hoes, nigga know that they fuck with them boys
They ain't 'posed to be out here
I'm slime, see straight green out here
4KTrey, bitch, we deep out here
Gon' make her take her top off
Make her get straight out her body
I'ma get that nigga knocked off
You'd do the same if you knew 'bout it
Hold on, wait, and blow the cock off
Shoot this bitch at everybody (bah, bah)
Don YoungBoy, know I'm Gotti
I don't pay for the drop, I cop it (let's go)
Twenty for to split a nigga's shit, okay
Check how bloody it get, okay
Pussy nigga can't spin back, no way
I'ma pop a nigga cap off top, on Dave
Steady spendin' money and it's coming each way
Flyin' in the Lam' through the land, out of state
All the hoes wanna stay, but it's no cheap stay
Double cup to the face, out of line with the gang
No mans, take a nigga pack with ten
Hit a nigga ass soon as he whipped in (bah)
Load up, spinnin' the pack, where they been?
'Fore we hopped in the car, I done had me one in
Sent them slimes at that bitch, I'ma send 'em again
I'm the slimiest, bitch, I'ma say it again
And my mom with the shit, we be lockin' it in
On the Wraith with my bitch, two-hundred and ten
Come from LP to Marco, check my barcode, I'm straight out the pen
Red River plus Wells Fargo, what's the amount? Do I spend my advance?
Keep a dirty pistol in my fuckin' pants (oh, come on, yeah)
We stepped on them, we gon' murder you with that fuckin' plan
Twenty for to split a nigga's shit, okay
Check how bloody it get, okay
Pussy nigga can't spin back, no way
I'ma pop a nigga cap off top, on Dave
Steady spendin' money and it's coming each way
Flyin' in the Lam' through the land, out of state
All the hoes wanna stay, but it's no cheap stay
Double cup to the face, out of line with the gang
I said, "Stop it"
You could act like you want smoke
I ain't here for no joke, I'll fuck 'round and pop it
Give a fuck 'bout no camera, don't play with my bro
Strip his ass at the store, we gon' go in his pockets
Go back-to-back, tally for tally
No, hollow for hollow, stand toe-to-toe with anybody
We gon' get at 'em back-to-back with the strap
Me and DD do that, nigga, check how he move with that shotty
Let that nigga talk, he ain't taking nothin' off
Let that nigga live 'til he come to the North
I already know the deal, I ain't even gotta talk
Big B get him killed, meet me back at the house
Two up for to serve to somebody
My brother who got it, we ridin' around in a drought

Scary ass nigga, no way
Bitch, I'm fine, I'm straight, uh

YoungBoy, 4KTrey
The lyrics to YoungBoy Never Broke Again's song Nawfside reflect his pride in his environment and his crew. The opening lines are a tribute to India, the producer who created the beats for the song. YoungBoy is ready to leave, but he's surrounded by his friends, who are ready to protect their turf at any moment. He boasts about the number of shooters he has and the amount of drugs they possess. The rapper claims that there's no one more dangerous in his neighborhood than him and his crew.
YoungBoy goes on to describe his rivalry with an opposing team, which he refers to as "opp." He warns them that they better not mess with him or they'll face the consequences. Besides, he insists that he's not moving any cars or doing anything for anyone, proving that he's a force to be reckoned with. He describes his environment as Northside, where he's known to be slime and for having excellent green, a reference to marijuana. He makes a point of being from 4KTrey, emphasizing on the "K" for "killing."
The chorus is a refrain of the same lines, which reflect YoungBoy's shoot-first-ask-questions-later approach. He emphasizes that he's a killer and doesn't care about the consequences. The rapper also states that he spends his money on a variety of expensive things such as a Lamborghini, but it's no cheap stay. He continues to talk about his enemies, and he's confident that there's nothing they can do to him. YoungBoy asserts that his crew can take down anyone who dares to attack them.
