The Rapper Post Arrives Amid Him Recently Making Headlines
At this time, it remains unclear what prompted NBA YoungBoy’s post of Yaya Mayweather. To note, resurfaced bodycam footage of Mayweather’s 2020 arrest went viral earlier this week.
At the time, Mayweather was detained for stabbing another mother of the rapper’s kids, Lapattra Jacobs.
Last week, NBA YoungBoy went viral after sharing a concerning photo of himself via Instagram. The picture featured him lying on the floor next to a double-lined styrofoam cup and a spilled bottle of prescription bills.
Before this, NBA YoungBoy made headlines after Yaya Mayweather’s father, Floyd, posted a video of him seemingly sending stacks of money to the rapper.
