NBA YoungBoy is gearing up to share a new side of his story.

The Baton Rouge rapper has taken his entrepreneurial spirit to the next level by stepping into the world of filmmaking. He recently launched his own production company, 38 Films, and is marking this milestone with a documentary that explores his personal journey, music career, and cultural influence.

The project will be produced and distributed in collaboration with Foundation Media Partners, signifying YoungBoy’s first major venture as a film producer.

The documentary is being directed by Nico Ballesteros, best known for directing the provocative Kanye West documentary “In Whose Name?”.

While specific details remain under wraps, the film promises to go beyond the surface-level content of a traditional concert movie. Rather than sticking to backstage glimpses and performance recaps, it will delve into the deeper aspects of YoungBoy’s life — examining everything from the pressures of relentless touring to his rise as one of hip-hop’s most-streamed artists.

YoungBoy has consistently operated on his own terms throughout his career, and launching 38 Films is a natural progression for his independent approach.

Without relying heavily on conventional industry mechanisms, he’s cultivated a dedicated fanbase and now aims to create a platform where he can authentically shape how his story is told. For an artist often in the public eye, taking control of his narrative represents a significant and bold step forward.

No release date for the documentary has been announced yet.
