NBA YoungBoy Is Giving Sobriety a Chance: ‘I’m Trying to See if I Really Can Make It to 6 Months’
The Louisiana rapper moved to South Korea and is trying to stay clean and out of trouble.
NBA YoungBoy, also known as YoungBoy Never Broke Again, is attempting to embrace a sober lifestyle. The Louisiana rapper announced on his Instagram Stories that he has flushed the remaining drugs he had and is aiming to remain sober for a span of six months straight. "I wanted to get high last night I just flushed the sh– down the toilet," he confessed. "I’m trying to see if I really can make it to 6 months." He also teased a forthcoming album, saying, "Hope yall ready for my album. This when we separate this and that."
In 2023, NBA YoungBoy admitted to checking himself into a rehab facility for a weekend. He admitted that despite knowing he indulges in drugs, he is still confronted with the reality that it controls his mind. NBA resides in South Korea currently and revealed during a recent interview with Funny Marco that he has no inclination to return to the United States. "I’ll go on tour one more time throughout my whole life and that’s it," he said, before adding that he believes he has "one or two" albums left in him.
Concerning his plans to potentially return to the States, NBA YoungBoy emphatically stated, "Never in life." He went on to explain how he's managed to adapt to South Korea as his home. "I used to always feel like I never have the opportunity to get away or leave, so it’s like I don’t have no problem being away," he explained. "It’s nothing there for me at all. Probably the most important thing is my kids. They there, but that’s what they got planes for." The title of his next album is All Dogs Go to Heaven.
