NBA YoungBoy reveals he is expecting his ninth child via new video Purge Me and Instagram post

NBA YoungBoy said that he’s expecting his ninth child.

The 22-year-old rapper broke the news in both an Instagram post and a music video for his single Purge Me.

The Baton Rouge, Louisiana native in the video is seen in romantic situations with Jazlyn Mychelle, who is expecting another child with him.

In the post on the social media site, a woman’s hand – identified as Mychelle, according to TMZ – is wearing an engagement ring is seen over a baby bump. He captioned the post ‘Dangerous Love.’

The musical artist, whose full name is Kentrell DeSean Gaulden, is already father to eight children with seven women, according to the outlet, as his children are named Alice, Amarni, Kacey, Kamiri, Kayden, Kentrell, Kodi and Taylin.

Some users on social media drew comparisons between the rap artist and entertainer Nick Cannon, who is currently expecting his 10th child.

One user said that ‘the world will be ran by descendants of nba youngboy, future, & nick cannon soon,’ while another said, ‘nba youngboy nick cannon and chief keef kids would have the biggest play date ever.’

Said one user: ‘nba youngboy goin kid for kid with nick cannon rn.’

One user showed a picture of a man facing a bank of phones, captioning the shot, ‘NBA YoungBoy FaceTiming his children.’

NBA YoungBoy earlier this summer was found not guilty in a federal gun case based out of Los Angeles in connection with a March 2021 incident in which he was charged with illegal firearms possession after authorities said they recovered a loaded handgun in his vehicle.

‘We believe the evidence presented in this case supported the charges brought by the grand jury,’ a U.S. Attorney’s Office spokesperson told TMZ this past July. ‘While we are disappointed with the verdict, we respect the jury’s decision.’

The rap artist’s lawyer Andre Belanger said that NBA YoungBoy wept when the verdict was read and said he ‘was never guilty of this.’
