NBA YoungBoy & Rap Snacks Team Up For Official Snack Collaboration

NBA YoungBoy is one of the hottest rappers in the game right now; does that mean he likes his chips spicy? Guess we’ll find out, since Rap Snacks recently announced that they welcomed YB into the food company’s family by releasing his own Rap Snack soon. While we don’t have any information on what flavor it’ll be as of writing this article, fans wasted no time in guessing. Whether it was legitimate answers like garlic or spicy nacho or more outlandish, meme-centric options like cigarette butts or gunpowder, this is clearly not your typical Rap Snack. In addition, the Black-owned brand also introduced Kodak Black to their repertoire, so we’ll see what these two MCs bring to the dinner table for a pre-meal delight.

Of course, YoungBoy usually sticks to his music rather than rack up extracurriculars, so this is an exciting move for him. What’s more is that it could be one of many routes he recently embarked on to spread his branding and image around outside of the many mixtapes and albums he releases. For example, rumors surfaced online of the Baton Rouge rapper making his own sneaker. That’s just based on a shoe he wore being engraved with “Grave Digger” on the tongue, and it’s unclear whether it’s just a custom pair or a sneak peek at an upcoming release.

Still, it’s not like the 23-year-old necessarily needs any of these partnerships to go to the next level. After all, his cult and dedicated fanbase is a steady stream of revenue, engagement, and support that many artists would probably drop hundreds of thousands for. By that same token, though, it’s a group of diehards that will most likely (and now literally) eat up anything that YoungBoy puts out, so the more they can connect with, the better. In any case, if these new Rap Snacks don’t do it for you as a fan, at least the three YB projects out this year so far keep you fed.

Meanwhile, the Richest Opp rhymer recently released a new track titled “I Need To Know.” Furthermore, it formed part of the Never Broke Again compilation project, Green Flag Activity, Vol. 2. Perhaps he prepared some other projects for us in 2023 as well. On that note, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on NBA YoungBoy.

NBA YoungBoy’s Mom Pays Him A Visit In Utah

Despite his continued house arrest, NBA YoungBoy continues to get chances to see his family. Not only did the court allow for him to have more visitors, but this is the second time in just three days that he’s had some quality family time. Moreover, the Baton Rouge rapper recently received a visit from his mother, and pictures of the meet-up surfaced online. Despite his limitations, YB continues to be as prolific as ever when it comes to music drops, and is finding time to spend with loved ones. In addition, this comes almost a month after his mother said that he is one of her “best kids.”

“No, he’s really one of my best children,” she said of YoungBoy. “Because he cares about other people. Ever since he been little, he do stuff for his sisters and brothers. When he first got his little money– his sister was 16, he was like 14– he bought her a car… bought her a little Chrysler… but it was about $3,000 or $4,000. He always took care of his sister and his little brother. He always do for his friends. If he go to the store, he gon’ bring them back something, like candy. He help the neighbors… Like all the older people. To this day, all the older people, they remember him.”

NBA YoungBoy’s Mom Visits Him In Utah

Meanwhile, the 23-year-old is as busy with his music as ever, dropping three projects so far in 2023 alone. While many fans thought that he would wrap things up with that, it seems like his streak this year isn’t over just yet. Furthermore, YoungBoy just dropped a new track and music video, “I Need To Know.” For fans of his style and more braggadocious content and delivery, this might be an instant add to the playlist. If not… well, you have like 70 other tracks to choose from this year.

Unfortunately, not everything has been peaches and cream when it comes to his family life. Recently, the Richest Opp rhymer responded to Nicolette Gotti and his baby mama Yaya Mayweather’s beef, saying that he hates the latter. Hopefully things don’t keep getting uglier with his extended family. Regardless, for more news and the latest updates on NBA YoungBoy, check back in with HNHH.

Playboi Carti Posts NBA YoungBoy Wearing Opium Chain On IG Story

Playboi Carti might have just caused the two most volatile and fervent fanbases in hip-hop today to unite. Moreover, the Opium label head just reposted a picture of NBA YoungBoy wearing an Opium chain, who also took the opportunity to promote his Never Broke Again merch. Furthermore, fans lit Twitter and Instagram ablaze with album rumors, clamors for a collab, and a whole lot of hype. Also, Instagram jewelry accounts and other social media pages bolstered these rumors by specifically reporting news of a joint album and Carti gifting the chain to YB. Further down, you’ll be able to see an embed alleging the collaboration, and it’s important to note that these rumors are still unconfirmed.

Of course, this is one of the most elusive rappers today linking with one of the most prolific. As such, a lot of people remain skeptical of the collab chances of seeing the light of day. Still, even a simple Instagram Story post from Playboi Carti is a lot of info by his standards, as album rumors continue to prop up and then dissipate. The one who might confirm these rumors to greater extent is NBA YoungBoy, who hasn’t said much other than plugging the promoted clothing.

Regardless, the possibility of a team-up between these two is quite exciting and has a lot of potential. After all, YoungBoy tried out more rage-inspired sounds on his 2023 project I Rest My Case. As arguably the figurehead and most important innovator in that genre, the Whole Lotta Red MC could add a lot to the Baton Rouge rapper’s development. On the other hand, we could see them try something completely different, or maybe Carti will enter YB’s lane.

Rumors Swirl Online Of Collab Album

Given his recent track with The Weeknd and Madonna, “Popular,” we know that the “King Vamp” artist is one to consistently surprise the fans. If it actually shapes up to be true, this could be a standout moment for hip-hop in 2023. Whether it happens or not, one thing’s for sure: the fanbases’ online energy is enough to light up a stadium. In any case, stick around on HNHH to stay up to date on all things NBA YoungBoy and Playboi Carti.

G Herbo Hilariously Mimics NBA YoungBoy

Rapper relationships and interactions don’t always have to be about collabs or beef; can’t people have a little fun sometimes? Moreover, a clip is floating around social media right now of G Herbo imitating NBA YoungBoy, particularly his energetic moves. It seems like quite the chill environment: he’s outside with what seem like balloons behind him, which a quick search on his Instagram hints to be for a birthday party for his daughter Emmy. During the clip, you can hear YB’s “Fresh Prince Of Utah” play while the Chicago rapper motions to light a joint, flails his arms and legs around, and removes the joint forcefully from his lips.

Considering the Baton Rouge MC’s heated attitude when it comes to beef, hopefully this doesn’t come back to bite G Herbo. While the two don’t have any official collabs together and this seems very light-hearted, YoungBoy is on a bit of a streak right now. After all, he dissed not only Lil Durk, but also his boo India Royale and DJ Akademiks during a lengthy Twitter rant recently. Let’s also not forget his recent “F**k The Industry Pt. 2” diss track, also taking aim at Drake and Lil Yachty. However, it’s unlikely that he would let a simple video draw his ire without any context.

G Herbo’s Spot-On YoungBoy Imitation

Regardless, G Herbo seemed to have a great time with loved ones at the event, even with people asking about his other kids. On that note, it’s clear that while he and Ari Fletcher had their issues in the past, they can still come together to show some family love. In April, they threw their son Yosohn a lavish party for his fifth birthday, complete with superhero costumes and much more. While his music career continues to develop and grow, it’s also heartening to see him enjoy the simpler, more important things in life, as well.

On that note, the “Raining” MC is known to be quite the prolific artist year to year, and it’s no different in 2023. Furthermore, he just dropped his latest mixtape Strictly 4 My Fans 2, a 12-track offering that’s quite self-explanatory. With just a couple of features including GloRilla, it’s a concise but self-led offering of what fans love him for. Maybe that NBA YoungBoy and G Herbo collab will come sooner than expected, because maybe YB finds his tribute impressive, or at least as funny as the rest of the fans do. Regardless, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates from these two MCs.

NBA YoungBoy Responds After Baby Mama Calls Him Out

It seems like no one’s escaping NBA YoungBoy’s wrath these days, even if they’re on the right side of the story. Moreover, the Baton Rouge MC recently responded to the mother of one of his children, who called him out on Twitter. “Idk whether to get Ms. Sherhonda a Mother’s Day gift or a fathers day gift… or both.” For those unaware, Drea Symone referred to YB’s mother Sherhonda, who’s apparently been carrying the weight in raising their child Kodi Kapri. After that tweet, he took to Instagram to voice his frustration with the “entertaining” message and question her timing.

“I ain’t gone even say nothing,” YoungBoy paradoxically posted on his Instagram Story. “You obviously miserable tf you thinking bout me for and the tweet was too random you too grown. Stop entertaining them that’s my job. & that’s funny how you pop out trolling at a time like this wide p***y b***h.” Yikes. Then, Drea returned to Twitter with a more serious takedown. “‘At a time like this’ I’ll speak on a mf not being a father to my child any day of the week. I could gaf less about anything you got going… must’ve hit a nerve. Nobody on my mind bu Sherhonda… honestly.”

NBA YoungBoy & Baby Mama Trade Social Media Shots

Of course, this is quite the ugly development, especially after the Don’t Try This At Home artist’s dismissive response. However, he’s been on somewhat of a rampage these days, dissing Lil Durk, DJ Akademiks, and India Royale in one fell swoop. That beef is leading up to Friday (May 12), as both Durk and YoungBoy are dropping projects that day (Almost Healed and Richest Opp, respectively). Maybe YB will take a step away from social media and the drama afterwards, or he’ll double down again and keep the heat on.

Regardless, the 23-year-old has a lot of kids to split his time with, although it’s no excuse for the alleged neglect. Recently, news broke that he reportedly welcomed his 11th child, even if little to no details around them surfaced along with those reports. Hopefully he can put all his affairs in order and seek that personal balance that’s only beneficial to his life, family, and peace of mind in the long run. For more updates and the latest news on NBA YoungBoy, come back to HNHH.

NBA YoungBoy Blasts DJ Akademiks For Thinking He Cares About Numbers

NBA YoungBoy just lit a fire online (albeit an unsurprising one), and doused some gasoline on it on Instagram Live. Moreover, the rapper took to the social media platform following his bold Twitter disses towards Lil Durk, DJ Akademiks, and India Royale. However, it seems like Ak was the main target of YB’s ire this time around, as he previously focused on Durk and their upcoming sales battle this week. Furthermore, the Baton Rouge MC fired off at the media personality for assuming that he’s throwing these jabs out to get more numbers behind his upcoming mixtape. All in all, it feels like he’d be happy with ten album sales if it meant speaking his mind.

“This p***y a** n***a Akademiks,” YoungBoy began his rant, which he embarked on while playing his music. “Actin’ like I give a f**k about numbers. B***h, I just dropped two weeks ago. This p***y n***a finna drop. B***h, I ain’t worried about no numbers, n***a. B***h a** n***a, big bank take lil’ bank. Your stupid drink face a**. That’s all you like to do, b***h, is get drunk and talk s**t. That one gon’ get you f***ed up.” He seemingly didn’t address Durk directly, who already responded to him, it seems.

NBA YoungBoy Fires Off On DJ Akademiks On Instagram Live

Meanwhile, Akademiks had this to say concerning YoungBoy’s Twitter tirades. “Lol I never thought I see the day my homie diss me cuz his sales low,” he posted on Twitter. “This rap game is the devil lol. Youngboy I forgive u man. We can get them sales up otherwise… lol. But ok. Capitol Records I blame u for this… y’all pressuring YB to get some sales he doing anything. Get my boy off house arrest tho. YB the last rapper I thought would ever do some s**t for sales. But damn. Go buy his album it drops Friday… He’s tryna outsell Lil Durk. I still love him thc. Buy his project.”

Of course, the main event at this showdown is between the Don’t Try This At Home MC and Lil Durk, who will drop his album Almost Healed the same day as YB’s mixtape Richest Opp. Though fans hoped they had put their differences aside, it seems like it’s just business as usual for the two. Hopefully rap fans still get two great projects as a result, and this spat doesn’t get any uglier. On that note, if you want the latest updates and news on NBA YoungBoy, stick around on HNHH.

Lil Durk Seemingly Responds To NBA YoungBoy’s Twitter Diss

After NBA YoungBoy fired off some vicious disses at Lil Durk and his partner India Royale, many wondered how the Chicago MC would respond. Moreover, YB announced his next mixtape Richest Pop would drop the same day as Durk’s next album Almost Healed. In the process, he dragged the couple through the mud, disrespected his dead friends, and trashed DJ Akademiks for reporting that their beef was over. However, Durk’s response was quite simple on Twitter, and it was one that pointed to him not letting this get under his skin or distracting him from his upcoming release or his success.

“Idk nun I ain’t seen nun,” Lil Durk wrote on Twitter shortly after the Baton Rouge MC’s attacks. Then, he posted a picture of his name as a trending Twitter topic. “Trending everyday,” he added with a black heart emoji. Furthermore, it seems like YoungBoy might have just given Smurk exactly what he wanted without asking: more buzz and promotion for his own release. Still, that didn’t make his words any less harsh online, and hope that they reconciled vanished as quickly as it came.

Lil Durk Sees The Bright Side Of YoungBoy Dissing Him

“@lildurk you a b***h & yo nasty a** h*e and it’s shown,” YB wrote addressing Lil Durk on Twitter. “And @Akademiks you a pure Fat h*e who mouth gone be the reason you from now on (“invalid”) #RichestOpp.” That wasn’t the end, though, as he caught more people in the crossfire in subsequent messages. “@lildurk lol you ever realized you only get a buzz when one of your friends die? Think about it scary bum b***h you know I ain’t lying ha ha #fact. @indiaroyaltyy tell that p***y b***h he bet not drop he ain’t thang ‘pretty lady.”

Meanwhile, India Royale doesn’t seem to have responded as of writing this article, but Akademiks sure did. “Lol I never thought I see the day my homie diss me cuz his sales low,” he quote-tweeted YoungBoy’s post. “This rap game is the devil lol. Youngboy I forgive u man. We can get them sales up otherwise… lol. But ok. Capitol Records I blame u for this… y’all pressuring YB to get some sales he doing anything. Get my boy off house arrest tho. YB the last rapper I thought would ever do some s**t for sales. But damn. Go buy his album it drops Friday… He’s tryna outsell Lil Durk. I still love him thc. Buy his project.” We’ll see if this is all for show or just the latest in their storied beef. For more updates on this story and the latest from Lil Durk, return to HNHH.

NBA YoungBoy Savagely Disses Lil Durk, DJ Akademiks & India Royale On Twitter

NBA YoungBoy just sent fans into a frenzy online by announcing his new mixtape Richest Opp, dropping on the same day as Lil Durk’s new album Almost Healed (this Friday, May 12). However, he didn’t stop there. Moreover, he went on a Twitter tirade where he dissed the Chicago MC, DJ Akademiks, Durk’s on-and-off-again partner India Royale, and even dissed his fallen friends. All in all, it was quite the combative and inflammatory set of statements, just when we thought they squashed their beef. Akademiks even responded to the call-out shortly after.

“@lildurk you a b***h & yo nasty a** h*e and it’s shown,” YoungBoy fired off on the social media platform. “And @Akademiks you a pure Fat h*e who mouth gone be the reason you from now on (“invalid”) #RichestOpp.” In separate tweets, he directed fire at Smurk’s deceased colleagues and at his flame. “@lildurk lol you ever realized you only get a buzz when one of your friends die? Think about it scary bum b***h you know I ain’t lying ha ha #fact. @indiaroyaltyy tell that p***y b***h he bet not drop he ain’t thang ‘pretty lady.’”

YoungBoy Goes Nuclear On Twitter

Of course, it’s not like Lil Durk was particularly responsive to the rumors that he and YB resolved their differences. In fact, now his answer has a lot more context behind it, as many interpreted it as him simply not speaking on it for clout. Furthermore, a reporter caught him on the street and asked him about DJ Akademiks’ claim that they put their issues behind them. “What beef? Who?” he replied calmly to the question. Meanwhile, the media personality’s response to YoungBoy dissing him was backhandedly understanding.

“Lol I never thought I see the day my homie diss me cuz his sales low,” he reacted. “This rap game is the devil lol. Youngboy I forgive u man. We can get them sales up otherwise… lol. But ok. Capitol Records I blame u for this… y’all pressuring YB to get some sales he doing anything. Get my boy off house arrest tho. YB the last rapper I thought would ever do some s**t for sales. But damn. Go buy his album it drops Friday… He’s tryna outsell Lil Durk. I still love him thc. Buy his project.” For the latest updates on this beef and more on YoungBoy, stay posted on HNHH.

DJ Akademiks Responds

Lil Durk Answers Questions About YoungBoy (Kind Of), Shouts Out Morgan Wallen

Before his new album Almost Healed drops next week, it seems like Lil Durk has some beef to clear within the industry. Moreover, reports stemming from DJ Akademiks and Durk’s own Twitter account suggested that the Chicago MC squashed his beef with NBA YoungBoy. Furthermore, it hasn’t been strictly confirmed by either artist, but all signs point to “yes” on social media. However, that doesn’t mean that Durkio is going to spill all the beans on their alleged reconciliation. While getting briefly interviewed by a reporter on the street, he sort of answered a question about their beef without saying much at all.

What beef?” Lil Durk replied incredulously to a woman’s question about YoungBoy. “Who? Shout out Morgan Wallen.” Then, the “Broadway Girls” artist got into his car without another word, leaving the reported (and fans) mostly in the dark. Still, it’s understandable that he wouldn’t want to keep fanning the flames of gossip, especially surrounding a feud. Maybe he simply wants his next album to speak for itself, and might open up in the future in a less impromptu scenario.

Lil Durk Shouts Out Morgan Wallen Instead Of Detailing YoungBoy Situation

Meanwhile, Lil Durk certainly has other collaborations to look forward to that have his die-hards and detractors alike quite excited. Not only that, but it should make for some incredible chemistry with one of the genre’s top dogs, who many might wrongfully assume wouldn’t go with Durk’s style. Him and J. Cole have been hard at work on a collaboration and accompanying music video. In fact, it was fans’ 100K comments on a post promoting it that led the 30-year-old to share Almost Healed‘s release date and cover art.

Regardless of any beef or de-escalation, these are two very different artists with their own careers to take care of. While a collab between then is unlikely, it would actually make for a pretty interesting combination of styles, fanbases, and appeals. What’s more is that YoungBoy just dropped an album this year as well, Don’t Try This At Home, which is actually his second of the year. No matter what’s going on between them, they are still two of the most hyped names to watch in the genre right now.
