NBA Youngboy regrets violent past and finds Jesus in Utah

(WVUE) - In one of the most revealing interviews since being sentenced to house arrest in Utah, Baton Rouge chart-topping rapper NBA YoungBoy says it’s time he atones for his past and looks forward to a more positive future.
YoungBoy, real name Kentrell Gaulden, invited Billboard to his Salt Lake City mansion, where he’s been surveilled by court-ordered ex-military security ever since he was released from St. Martin Parish custody in Oct. 2021 on firearms charges stemming from a music video shoot in his hometown. He’s left his house exactly zero times. His ankle monitor will trigger if he so much as crosses the end of his driveway.
The cover story, published Wed., Feb. 1, is one of the most vulnerable interviews YoungBoy has given, reflecting on his life and career.
NBA YoungBoy’s music earned over five billion on-demand streams in 2022, behind only Drake and Taylor Swift. Five out of his eight full-length releases last year reached the top 10 of the Billboard 200
quote:
“I feel very wrong about a lot of things,” he said. “How many kids of people have got in a car or put this sh-- in their ears and actually went and hurt someone?”
The 23-year-old admits he can’t rewrite his music as a street rapper, and he refuses to rap about violence merely to satisfy listeners, but says he’s eager to “clean whatever I can clean” moving forward, adding “it’s gon’ take time.”
quote:
He discussed how moving to Utah has had a positive impact on his daily life, which now includes regular readings of Book of Mormon and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, after missionaries came to his home. The rapper says he turned them away the first time they swung by, but when they returned, he decided to let them in.
“I wanted help very badly. I needed a friend. And it hit me,” he recalled. “It was just cool to see someone with a different mindset that had nothing to do with business or money... just these wonderful souls.”
The missionaries now discuss the Book of Mormon with YoungBoy regularly, reflected in his recent “Hi Haters” video, which opens with a quote from the LDS tome.
According to YoungBoy, the visits help “make sure my heart is in the right space.” He says he’s planning on having a Mormon baptism once he’s off of house arrest.

I'm sure the higher ups in the organization are involved in shady shite across the West, but every Mormon I've ever known are exactly as portrayed on South Park. Lovely, kind people with goofy beliefs.

And how many killings was this tPOS responsible for?

For what it’s worth, I hope he’s legit about this. My money says he isn’t.
If he is, does that mean BR is safe again?

Shows you how toxic Louisiana really is. All he needed was some clean, beautiful outdoors to better himself.

He's already got a leg up on the whole Mormonism thing, then.

I'm was hoping he'd turn it around. Way to Geaux, Youngboy

From gangbanger to Mormon. That's a hell of a change.
