<h3 style="text-align: center;">NBA Youngboy&#8217;s Comments On Fatherhood</h3>
<p>The 24-year-old rapper sat down for an exclusive interview with Bootleg Kev, published via <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbO9Vddn0FI" target="_blank" rel="noopener">YouTube</a> on Monday, January 8. About two minutes into the interview, Kev asked Youngboy to share &#8220;how important&#8221; fatherhood is to him.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Um&#8230; I&#8217;m not really big on it, to be honest,&#8221; he replied.</p></blockquote>
<p>Kev explained that he perceives the rapper to be a &#8220;family man.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Yeah, but I&#8217;m only in here &#8217;cause you here,&#8221; YoungBoy told Kev.</p></blockquote>
<p>To note, the interview appeared to take place at the rapper&#8217;s residence, inside his living room. Additionally, one of Youngboy&#8217;s sons was also present for the discussion.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;See this crazy topic &#8217;cause I&#8217;m not the type to sugarcoat nothing. But I&#8217;m four walls all day, every day,&#8221; the rapper explained, referring to his love for recording music in the studio.</p></blockquote>
<p>Youngboy then clarified that he does &#8220;bond a lot&#8221; with his children. However, he spends most of his days &#8220;stuck inside one room.&#8221; The rapper explained that he &#8220;wouldn&#8217;t say&#8221; he&#8217;s &#8220;going through a lot.&#8221; But being &#8220;alone in his thoughts&#8221; is his way of &#8220;staying sane.&#8221;</p>
<p>During the conversation, NBA Youngboy also revealed that he&#8217;s been smoking cigarettes since the age of seven and shared his thoughts on possibly recording a joint project with Rod Wave.</p>

<blockquote><p>&#8220;Can’t be on top forever, you know. It’s always gon be another artist, but there will never be another YoungBoy. I will not be provoked, I will not be broken and I’m not going back to who I use to be. Accept it or not, I ain’t going back&#8230; When I walk out this door, it’s gon be a whole lot of doing,&#8221; he told <a href="https://www.billboard.com/music/features/youngboy-never-broke-again-cover-story-interview-1235208827/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Billboard</a>.</p></blockquote>
