NBA Youngboy Responds To Gillie’s Request For Him To Headline A Festival With Lil Durk

by

Earlier today, a clip started making the round online of Gillie on his podcast opening up on who he would want to headline his festival. His answer made a lot of sense as he explained his picks would be Lil Durk and NBA Youngboy. The pair had a long-lasting beef that they reportedly only finally squashed earlier this year. Gillie hoped that the two taking the stage in the same night would show fans that the rappers really are there to give them the best performances possible above all else.

Fans in the comments didn’t believe initially the Youngboy was up for it. “Bro YB on house arrest at grave digger’s mountain,” one of the top comments mentions. “Bro tryna lit the stage up in a different way,” another comment reads suggesting that it would be a violent affair if they were both performing. But Youngboy seemingly surprised plenty of fans by responding to the request. In the video he shared he says that he would love to play at Gillie’s festival. The only issue is that he just needs to be let off of house arrest first. But that wasn’t even the revelation that most fans honed in on. Check out Gillie’s initial request and Youngboy’s video response below.

Right at the start of the video Youngboy clarifies that the beef between him and Durk is firmly squashed. He explains that the two actually talk regularly specifically citing conversations they have about their music. He doesn’t seem to think there would be any hold ups if the two rappers were to co-headline a music festival together.

NBA Youngboy has had an extremely prolific 2023 releasing four entire projects worth of new material. The most recent is Decided 2 a full hour of new music across 18 songs that his streaming platforms last month. What do you think of NBA Youngboy’s revelation that he and Lil Durk talk every 2-3 days about their music? Let us know in the comment section below.

DaBaby surprised fans with an appearance during Meek Mill’s Gilliefest set in Philadelphia earlier this week. After performing, DaBaby made sure to drop some love for Gillie and his family. “Imma give this bitch back to the big homies Wallo and Gil,” he said. “I appreciate everything. Look, look — and just to say this publicly, let me give them their praise and their flowers publicly.”

He continued: “These is really two n-ggas that I look up to — they check on me on the regular. And to see my n-gga go through something, the way he goin’ through it. Two, three days after he pulled up to my crib, that shit happened, that shit broke my heart n-gga. But it’s all good. I know you a super-strong n-gga. I know you a real n-gga. And you got a real n-gga with you. And that’s all it takes.”

Philadelphia is still reeling from the death of YNG Cheese, the eldest son of local rapper Gillie Da Kid. The 25-year-old was killed in a shooting in the Olney neighborhood of north Philadelphia last month. The victim was later confirmed to be YNG Cheese, with his cousin Wallo posting a tribute on social media. “Lil cuz usually when I talk to you, I got a lot to tell you. Tonight the pain in my heart & tears spoke to you. I love you beyond life cheese. I got your father, rest well.”

The music world as a whole has been shocked by the death. Figures such as Swizz Beatz, Maino, and even Charlamagne Tha God addressed the shooting. At the time of writing, no suspects have been detained in the investigation. “What hurts so much about this situation,” Charlamagne Tha God explained, “is as much as Wallo and Gillie do for the community of Philadelphia.” “As much as they pour into these young brothers and try to stray them away from … killing each other and gang violence. To have his son be a victim of gun violence is tragic and a reminder that life is indeed not fair, in no way shape or form.”
