YoungBoy Never Broke Again has teamed up with DJ Khaled for their first collaborative project.
On Tuesday, August 12, YB dropped his new mixtape DESHAWN hosted by Khaled. Khaled kicks off his and YB's 13-track mixtape, named after YB's middle name "DeSean," with "AI Marley" and pops up on other tracks like "Ms. Gaulden" and "Blazers." The project also holds his latest collaboration with Kevin Gates, "Trap Out." On that song, YB surprised fans when he confirmed that he plans to drop his next project, AI Youngboy 3. It will serve as the follow-up to his project AI YoungBoy 2, which dropped in 2019. A release date has not been revealed yet.
"I just wanna win," YB said in a video he posted on Monday night. "That's why I'm dropping again. I don't wanna do nothing but win."
Elsewhere in the song, YB appears to reveal that he encouraged his ex, Yaya Mayweather, to get an abortion. On the song "This Month's Confessions," the father of 13 raps, "Now Yaya pregnant, gotta make her get rid of it/This ain't the time, I told you 'No.'" YB and Yaya already share one child together.
YB and Khaled announced their joint mixtape on Sunday in a collaborative post on Instagram. This is the second project YB dropped after he was released from prison earlier this year. The 25-year-old rapper just released his album MASA (Make America Slime Again) two weeks ago. His eighth studio album contains 30 tracks, including "Fire Your Manager" featuring Playboi Carti and "Cold World" featuring Mellow Rackz. NBA YoungBoy delivered the mixtape a few months after he dropped his compilation album, More Leaks. The project arrived at the top of March, which is a few weeks before he was freed from prison.
Fans can watch YB perform all of these songs and more during his "MASA Tour." YB's 27-city tour begins in Dallas on September 2 and will continue to other major cities in states like California, Colorado, Arizona, Missouri, Illinois, Florida, New York, and more. The tour will close out with YoungBoy's final show in New Orleans. Tickets are on sale now.
