YoungBoy NBA Performs In Front Of Packed Crowd Amid COVID-19 Pandemic

Rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again reportedly performed in front of hundreds of fans inside a small spaced Orlando, Florida venue over the weekend amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The 21-year-old took the stage at the #MensClosetAnniversaryParty at the Central Florida Fairgounds on Saturday (December 5,) which was initially scheduled to be held in April, but postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, according to an Accesswire press release for the event.

A video of the event shared by internet personality DJ Akademiks showed a large crowd with few individuals wearings masks or practicing social distancing as the United States continues to see a surge in COVID-19 cases, including Florida, which reported 8,436 new coronavirus cases and 96 deaths on Sunday, bringing the state's case total to 1,058,074, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

The event had an age limit of 18 and over and tickets were reportedly sold for $75, $100 and $200, plus additional Eventbrite fees, according to the event's press release. The Baton Rouge native released his fourth solo project, the 'Until I Return' mixtape, last month, which was initially exclusive to YouTube and made available on streaming services with four additional songs three days later.

YoungBoy NBA recently received attention on social media after he was shown in a video with his ex-girlfriend amid the birth of a child reported to be his sixth and his seventh due.

Jazlyn Mychelle, who dated YoungBoy NBA this past summer, shared a video of herself and the Baton Rouge native dancing together with the caption, "She just wanna #footstep" on her Instagram account Tuesday (December 2.)

The post was shared one day after YoungBoy NBA was reported to have fathered his sixth child. Drea Symone, who also shares another daughter with the Baton Rouge rapper, announced a second girl, Kodi, was born on Thanksgiving (November 26) in a post shared to her Instagram on Monday (December 1.)

While Symone didn't specifically name YoungBoy NBA, whose real name is Kentrell Gaulden, as the father, she did confirm the baby shared his initials, KG.

"November 26th 2020, on Thanksgiving Day, I was given a 7.5lb reason to become more thankful," Symone posted. "I’ve been caught up cherishing the days after... it’s safe to say my heart is completely full!!

"Kodi Capri 💛.#kcg#perfection."

YoungBoy NBA is also expecting his seventh child, a son shared with Yaya Mayweather, the daughter of legendary undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather. The rapper was reportedly absent from Yaya's baby shower last month, but was featured on screens in the room and on the dinner menu at the event, according to a video shared by the Shade Room's Instagram account.
