Thankfully the story ended with nobody getting hurt.

House arrest seems like it's been a mixed bag for NBA Youngboy so far. It's been more than two years since the ruling came down in court that he would remain in a house in Utah. On one hand, the era has been extremely productive for Youngboy as he dropped four full new albums in 2023 alone. But the rapper has also reported that his mental health has suffered as a result of his isolation. During a recent interview, he told the story about how his physical health once almost suffered.

Earlier this week, NBA Youngboy sat down with Bootleg Kev on his podcast to share a number of fascinating stories. One of the most interesting of the bunch is a time he was almost attacked by a wild cat. “I feel like you’ve got to kind of embrace nature, I want to really get into it. I want to really learn how to fill up my backpack on my own, go up the mountain, start a fire, and cook something to eat," he began after being asked about living in Utah. We had a bobcat jump out at us one day. That bitch tried to get into the cab now. That bitch really tried to run into it. It was me and Lil Dump. I looked to see where it went, I wanted to see if it was coming out the bus.” Check out the full interview clip below.

NBA Youngboy's Wild Cat Story

The wild cat story was just one of multiple wild claims Youngboy made in the new interview. He also claimed that he expected to get into more legal trouble at some point in the future. The rapper speculated that there's likely more jail time coming for him at some point.

During the interview he also surprisingly claimed that he isn't "really big" on the very concept of fatherhood. What do you think of NBA Youngboy almost being attacked by a wild cat while on house arrest in Utah? Let us know in the comment section below.
