NBA YoungBoy is taking his career in a whole new direction. After releasing a slew of albums last year and achieving the highest streaming numbers of his career, the Baton Rouge, La. native still isn't satisfied.
In the latest episode of the Rap Radar Podcast that dropped on Thursday, February 16, The Last Slimeto rapper opened up about the overwhelming success he's earned over the past year. During their conversation, hosts Eliott Wilson and Brian "B. Dot" Miller ask YB how he feels about being in the top three most streamed artists in the U.S. right behind Drake and Taylor Swift. In his eyes, there's still more to do.
"So much more to be done," YoungBoy explained. "I don't know how to explain it. I don't really feel like nothing has been done... I ain't never satisfied, but there's a lot more to be done."
Later on in their conversation, YB also touches on his upcoming album. It'll be his first release via Motown after he left his longtime label Atlantic Records last year. Previously, the rapper based in Utah said that he would no longer rap about violence or anything related to it. However, YB said he's going to be "talking crazy" on his new project Don't Try This At Home.
"I'mma talk crazy on there," he said "I'mma show you Murda Man. I'mma talk crazy on there but I'm letting you know though, don't try this at home... It's all entertainment, bruh. I'mma talk my s**t and everything I talk but don't try this at home."
