NBA Youngboy’s a family man and he’s making his love for his wife known to the world. He and Jazlyn Mychelle tied the knot earlier this year. But, beyond trading vows, YB made sure that the world knows who his wifey is. Earlier today, the rapper shared a photo of himself putting in work at the gym when fans noticed his new tattoo. NBA Youngboy got Jazlyn’s name inked right above his groin in big block letters.

The couple has been together for over two years at this point. However, the two quietly got married at the beginning of January, though it’s unclear whether they had a ceremony. A copy of the marriage license emerged online with their legal names – Kentrell Gaulden and Jazlyn Mychelle Hayes. Their family’s expanded in the past two years since they began dating. The couple welcomed their daughter Alice in 2021 and later revealed the birth of their son on September 28th, 2022. 

NBA Youngboy’s Family Plans

It’s becoming more clear that NBA Youngboy doesn’t necessarily have the intention of relocating his family to major hubs, like LA Or Atlanta, for the sake of his career. As he’s continued to deliver an influx of music to his fans on house arrest, he previously revealed that he wanted to move Jazlyn and their two children to Europe after he resolved his legal issues. “We got to stay prayed up. I really want to move [to] Europe with my family once all of this put behind me,” he wrote. “I’m stacking money until then!!”

For now, the rapper will have to remain Stateside, more specifically Utah, before he settles his legal matters. Most recently, the judge loosed his house arrest conditions to allow more than three visitors at a time beyond his wife, producer, and business manager, who live in the same home as him. Shortly after the news emerged, he confirmed his upcoming album, Don’t Try This At Home would arrive on April 21st, along with a 33-song tracklist. We’ll keep you posted on anymore updates surrounding NBA Youngboy’s next project. Check out NBA Youngboy’s latest addition to his tattoos above.
