Last month, we got word that Hip Hop's hottest free agent NBA YoungBoy was going to sign with Motown.
This came at a time when all signs pointed to YB throwing caution to the wind and signing with Cash Money and Birdman, who would prefer not to pay his rappers.
Baby has a close relationship with YB and is said to call him every day
But now it's official. YoungBoy is on Motown.
"YoungBoy Never Broke Again is headed to Motown, sources familiar with the situation tell Billboard.
Headed from Warner Music Group’s Atlantic Records — where he released four official studio albums and many more mixtapes — YoungBoy will begin releasing music on the Universal Music Group-owned Motown in 2023."
Last year, YB's Never Broke Again collective signed a global joint venture with Motown.
Now he'll be dropping his numerous albums and tapes on the label.
Financial terms weren't disclosed but the number $60 million had been batted around.
