NBA Youngboy is no longer signed to Atlantic Records.
NBA Youngboy is now a free agent after dropping his latest album “The Last Slimeto“. The rapper has completed his contractual obligations with Atlantic Records with the latest studio effort. The Baton Rouge rapper reportedly declined a $60 million offer from Atlantic Records.
The “Top” rapper also received 100+ separate RIAA Certified Titles, which is celebrated by his manager Alex Junnier. “Congratulations to the GOAT. 100 RIAA Certifications. Over 400 Masters, 23 Projects, 5 Albums. He completed his first exclusive recording agreement with Atlantic Records all at 22 years old. One of the hardest working people I’ve ever met and one of the people that pushes me to limit to be the best manager I can be,” he wrote.
Youngboy has been feuding with Atlantic Records throughout this year, and he previous advised others to not to sign with the label. “Don’t sign to atlantic if you artist they not gone support you especially if you live a certain way,” he wrote previously.
YoungBoy Never Broke Again attacked Atlantic Records on social media at the start of the year saying that he is being “blackballed.”
The rapper wrote, “I was going #1 two weeks straight with a mixtape so they took it down off the charts.” He continued, “I don’t give a f**k you still can’t stop me don’t sign to [Atlantic Records] if you a artist they not gone support you especially if you live a certain way.” “Don’t sign to Atlantic if you [an] artist they not gone support you especially if you live a certain way.” Once again for good measure, he added, “Don’t sign to Atlantic. Trust me.”
