“No matter if I see you in the right way or the wrong way again my n***a, I’m gone be smiling,” YoungBoy captioned a photo of his father. “I went thru this experience on my own you built that one bitch I’m trying [to] tell you. I’m on top of the love, Jeff.”

YoungBoy previously discussed his upbringing with Billboard for an extensive profile, earlier this year. At the time, he revealed that his grandmother passed away in 2010, at which he point he moved into a group home. He explained that he was bullied by the other kids there.
“The other boys would put their hands on me, and I would look up like, ‘Why are you hitting me, bro? What’d I do?’” he recalled to the outlet. “It made me discover another side of me that I never glorified or liked. I found out how to be the person that you don’t want to do that with. [Before then], I never understood all the evilness or wrong because I was showered by so much love from this one person.”
