NBA YoungBoy has been busy teasing new music and awaiting the arrival of his child with his wife, Jazlyn.

Mother Of NBA YoungBoy’s Son Speaks Out Amid Newborn Baby Girl Speculation
Starr Deja’nee has kept a private life throughout 2025. She shocked the internet on November 20, revealing she was expecting a baby girl while sharing baby bump photos and an ultrasound. The ultrasound read, “Precious little one.” Her caption read, “I said NO & God said YES. It’s a girl.” For context, Starr is the mother of NBA YoungBoy’s third son, Kamiri. Her newborn is her fourth child, as she has three sons. Speculation quickly made waves online as commenters questioned who the child’s father was. Many immediately assumed it could be NBA YoungBoy.
On November 22, Starr shared a photo holding her baby’s hand, captioned, “11.02. 3 lbs. 6 oz. Li mama.” She also tweeted, “Li mama so tiny but yet so mighty,” while celebrating the birth of her premature baby. On December 17, Starr Deja’nee officially shared photos from her baby’s photoshoot. She captioned the images, “Little Ms. Klever Unique.” The post increased speculation as others continued debating and questioning the child’s paternity. One commenter wrote, “Oh, the K told me everything,” seemingly referencing NBA YoungBoy’s real name, Kentrell. Another commenter congratulated them, writing, “Congratulations Starr and @GGYOUNGBOY, she’s so beautiful.”
Seemingly tired of the paternity speculation, Starr tweeted, “Why is this debate still going on? Klever is my child. Who cares about all that extra?”
Social Media Reacts
Many folks gathered under The Shade Room Teens to debate whether they believe NBA YoungBoy is the father. Some felt it was possible the rapper had a baby with Starr, noting he has done this before with his first child’s mother.Others said the speculation is unnecessary and urged everyone to focus on prayers for the premature baby.

Baby Fever Is In The Air
While many continue to debate whether NBA YoungBoy fathered Starr’s baby, it looks like baby girl fever is in the air. Earlier this week, Yaya Mayweather took to X to share future baby names for her daughter if she were to give Kentrell Jr. a sister one day. She wrote, “If I ever have a daughter, I’m going to name her Kensley or Khrome.”
