This young Louisiana rapper has an incredible story of success and trouble. You wouldn’t normally compare him to Marshall, but recent YoungBoy’s post made many of his audience do just that.
YoungBoy Never Broke Again started writing songs for his debut project at the age of 15, while in juvenile detention for a robbery charge. Since his 2015 mixtape “Life Before Fame”, has released a total of 26 studio albums, EPs, and mixtapes. Six of them were released in 2022, including his fifth Billboard No.1 debut, “The Last Slimeto”.
His fans worship him, and while YougBoy deleted his social media as news of his arrest surfaced in 2020, he can communicate with them through his YouTube channel. His blog on the community tab is very personal and gives them a glimpse into his life and aspirations.
So when he shared a screenshot of a video he presumable had been watching, a big part of his following is excited.
Captioned with a short inspirational: “Goodmorning a**holes”, it was a supercut with Eminem’s scenes taken from “The Wash”, a 2001 comedy written and directed by DJ Pooh and starring Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg. The tagline reads: “Life at the car wash is a place where anything can and does happen to two friends (Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg) trying to earn money to pay their rent”.
Eminem has a short role there, and it is not the one he is most famous for. So, is YoungBoy a rap connoisseur and hip hop historian, a closeted Em fan? Is he getting ready for a joint with Marshall or planning his own film debut? There is no answer, but judging by the comments to this post, a serious chunk of YougBoy’s audience is looking forward to the possibility of this collaboration, however unlikely it might be.
