NBA Youngboy’s new album is nearly here. Besides The Last Slimeto, he hasn’t necessarily plotted out full rollouts for his projects. Instead, he surprises fans with bodies of work and sells thousands of copies in the first week. Part of it is a result of his house arrest conditions. Since he hasn’t necessarily been able to leave his home in Utah, he’s been locked in the studio and delivering some of the best music of his career.
In a few weeks, he’ll unveil his forthcoming project, Don’t Try This At Home. After dropping a handful of records, including “WTF” with Nicki Minaj, it looks like he’s trying to rally his fans and industry friends in Los Angeles for a massive release party. However, he won’t actually be there. According to TMZ, he’s coughed up $200K to rent out Elevate Lounge DTLA on April 20th for the event, even though he can’t attend physically. 50 Cent’s Branson Cognac is reportedly sponsoring the event while DJ Carisma holds it down on the ones-and-twos.
NBA Youngboy Release Party
With the album due out on April 21st, we suspect that he’ll provide fans with atleast one more single before dropping the project in its entirety. Prior to the release of “WTF” with Nicki Minaj, he dropped off “Next,” “Demon Party,” and “Members Only.” The upcoming project will include 33 songs in total. Hopefully, we see more collabs on the project besides Nicki Minaj. However, it looks like we’ll only find that out closer to the release date.
The rapper explained that the title of his album is inspired by the state of the rap game right now. As someone who has fought some serious charges, he said that he feels a lot of rappers aren’t actually about the things they rap about. “Entertainment and reality is very different. What I do think, some of the entertainers make their entertainment their reality also,” he said. “A lot of people who you see today, that’s 100% who they is… But I guarantee you bro, the majority of them… nah.” Are you looking forward to NBA Youngboy’s new album?
