NBA YoungBoy takes no days off and lit up the internet yesterday!
The buzzing Baton Rouge rapper has announced that he will release a surprise project titled “Realer 2” today (September 6). YoungBoy deactivated his Instagram page and according to DJ Akademiks, it is because he is planning on dropping a sequel to his 2018 mixtape titled “Realer,” which his fans have been eagerly anticipating.

YB’s upcoming drop comes just one month after his fourth studio album titled “The Last Slimeto,” which nearly achieved a Billboard #1 debut against Latin pop icon Bad Bunny. It debuted at #2 with 108,400 first-week units, however, sales haven’t been what’s driving YoungBoy as of late. 4,600 of that figure came from pure sales, while the remainder came from 161.92 million on-demand streams.
