Here is a screenshot of the post by YB.
In February 2021, the relationship between NBA YoungBoy and Drea Symone began to fall apart due to several events.
It started when Drea said to NBA YoungBoy that he was unkind, resulting in him being disliked by others.
Another event was when Drea expressed her dissatisfaction with the rapper’s absence in their child’s life on Social media. She acknowledged Ms. Sherhonda, NBA YoungBoy’s mother, for being there for her and Kodi.
“Idk whether to get Ms. Sherhonda a Mother’s Day gift or a fathers day gift… or both“
NBA clapped back, saying;
“I ain’t gone even say nothing,” YB typed on IG Story. “You obviously miserable tf you thinking bout me for and the tweet was too random you too grown. Stop entertaining them that’s my job. & that’s funny how you pop out trolling at a time like this wide pssy b*ch.”
NBA YoungBoy revealed that his Baby Mamas denied him access to his children. He also claimed in his song “Foolish Figure” that he paid them a million dollars, but they refused to let him see his two daughters.
This part of the song lyrics discloses the following.
“I ain’t see my daughters, no, two of ’em, I’m talkin’ in monthsThen they gon’ tell them people, lyin’, like I ain’t tryna do nothin’I gave them both one million a piece, they still keep my children from me“
Drea and YB had an admirable relationship at the start, which is worth noting. On Kacey Alexander Gaulden’s second birthday (2019) – the rapper’s son with Jania Bania, Drea shared a photo of Kacey to wish him a happy birthday.
Their relationship stayed strong from 2019 till late 2021 when Jazlyn Mychelle came into NBA YoungBoy’s life.
