His girlfriend is possibly a Hijab-clad Muslim (or maybe that’s just to evade the restraining order), he’s been photographed with a topi on, and he’s really close with Kevin Gates, who is a Muslim. ItsSugmaDique (talk) 19:01, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

Associated acts

In the infobox, "associated acts" is for "professional relationships with other musicians or bands that are significant and notable to this artist's career."

One song isn't going to cut it.

Template:Infobox_musical_artist#associated_acts is looking for:

• "groups of which they have been a member"
• "Acts (they have) collaborated on multiple occasions, or on an album, or toured with as a single collaboration act playing together"
• "Groups which have spun off from this group" (doesn't apply here)

Children updated

Thanks to Dreamofdealers, we have an update.

From Fader we have the four boys, Kayden, Kamron, Taylin, and Kamiri via three mothers.

The new Instagram adds the daughter, Armani. It does not, however, say anything about her mother. Our article currently says four mothers total, though it could be three. I've marked it cite needed for that reason.

We still have his June 2018 statement that "Baby K" is not biologically his (Vladtv). This could refer to one of the boys or a sixth child; it isn't clear.

Anything else needs a source. - SummerPhD^v2.0 15:28, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

NBA Youngboy released his second studio album on September 11th 2020. The album was number 1 on Apple Music charts weeks before it's official release due to pre-order sales. Since the release, the album has remained in the number 1 position and sold 127,000 first week copies with 156.32 million on demand streams. "Top" is NBA Youngboy's third #1 album of the year and has become the fastest artist to reach three #1 albums on the Billboard 200. Pablocsun (talk) 23:09, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

Children

The personal life section has been repeatedly changed to reduce the number of children. The version I have repeatedly restored, "Gaulden has four sons with three mothers. The children are named Kayden, Kamron, Taylin and Kamiri." is as reported in the source cited.

If you have reliable sources that say otherwise, we can discuss the issue and work out how to report the issue.

If you do not have sources but are absolutely certain you are right because you heard it somewhere, you will need to find reliable sources. If you still can't find sources but are positive that you know the truth, you will still need sources. - SummerPhD^v2.0 00:34, 4 August 2018 (UTC)

He calls one of his sons as “Draco” I think that should be mentioned ItsSugmaDique (talk) 18:53, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

Seems trivial to me. In any event, it's unsourced. - SummerPhD^v2.0 05:04, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

No I mean anyone who follows him on Instagram would know that he calls his Draco whether that’s his actual name or a nickname. Would using an Instagram picture as source work for you? ItsSugmaDique (talk) 01:36, 30 November 2018 (UTC)

What he calls his son is trivial. Heck, what their given names are is barely worth mentioning. - SummerPhD^v2.0 15:47, 14 December 2018 (UTC)

The unsourced changes continue.

So far, it seems that various anonymous editors are certain of a few things: YNBA has 2 to 5 children (with perhaps a dozen different names) by 2 to 4 mothers. All or some of them are biologically his. The children may or may not be known by various nicknames.

All of this is supported by absolutely nothing, other than a few claims that "everybody" simply "knows this".

Given the varying contradictory claims, Wikipedia's policies (including WP:BLP) are quite clear. We will report what independent reliable sources report: YoungBoy has four sons with three mothers. The children are named Kayden, Kamron, Taylin and Kamiri.

If you have an independent, published reliable source that says otherwise, please provide the source. Otherwise, your changes will be reverted. - SummerPhD^v2.0 13:43, 29 August 2019 (UTC)

This time, we have sources. Unfortunately, they aren't good sources. We cannot assume song lyrics are factual. Songs that are c\clearly far from factual are a dime a dozen. Songs wandering from the pure facts for poetic license or dramatic effect are similarly common. His lyrics do not have editorial oversight or a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy.

Next, we have a link to an ill-formatted page from "hiphopmyway". The site lists no editors. The author is "Max", a journalism student. I see nothing to indicate the site meets the criteria outlined at WP:IRS, especially not for WP:BLP issues. - SummerPhD^v2.0 02:42, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

NBA YoungBoy has 4 sons, Kayden, Taylin, Kamiri and Kacey. He talks about them in the song "4 Sons of a King". Also he does not mention Kamron (who is known as Baby K) in the song because Kamron is not his biological son. 2601:803:500:63D0:389D:FDDE:BA8A:7883 (talk) 04:28, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

As explained above, song lyrics are not a reliable source. The identity of "Baby K" is completely unsourced. - SummerPhD^v2.0 05:02, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

Despite the lyrics of "Summer of '69", Bryan Adams was not in a band and making out with his girlfriend that year. He was 9.

Contrary to "1973", James Blunt did not "call you up everyday Saturday night, (etc.)...In nineteen seventy three". He wasn't born yet.

We have an independent reliable source for the kids. It is quite clear: "His 1-year-old sons, Kayden and Kamron...his third son, Kamiri...through a paternity test that he has a fourth son, Taylin..." Your interpretation of song lyrics does not change that.

Yes, he mentions Kacey in the lyrics. Your decision that this make Kacey the fourth "...son of a king" and, presumably, Young Boy the king neither removes Kamiri nor adds Kacey nor discusses who Kacey's mother is.

This is a biography of a living person. Wikipedia's stringent policy on the matter is quite clear: "any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be supported by an inline citation to a reliable, published source". - SummerPhD^v2.0 05:43, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

HOW ARE THE LYRICS A NON RELIABLE SOURCE WHEN HE LITERALLY SAYS THEIR NAMES IN THE SONG?!!! X1217 (talk) 05:27, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

Firstly, STOP SHOUTING AT US! Secondly, read Help:Referencing for beginners. Study it thoroughly and once you have come back and see if the same question still needs to be asked. When you are done with that, check out WP:Reliable sources too. SummerPhDv2.0 has also explained to you in detail why lyrics are not acceptable for a BLP article. Robvanvee 05:48, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

In the song's lyrics, the entirety of the mention of Kacey is "Just talked to Kacey through a iPhone, I coulda cried". Please explain how this unequivocally says that Kacey is his son, Kamiri is not and there are three mothers for the four children.

Next, please explain what the yet-to-be-born James Blunt was doing in a club in 1973 (song).

Song lyrics are a creative process. Facts are distorted, omitted and obscured as the artist feels is necessary. Assuming your interpretation of the lyrics matches the artist's intent and that the artist's intent is an accurate representation of reality is foolhardy. - SummerPhD^v2.0 05:52, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

This SummerPhD dork needs to kick tf back! Being a passive aggressive little nit picker “AKCHUALLY” headass. You’re being told the literal truth, facts and you’re trying to combat it with “Lol song lyrics can be lies not reliable” when anyone who really knows what they’re talking about could tell you it’s the truth. KDAIRW (talk) 22:24, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Hi, KDAIRW, and welcome to Wikipedia.

I'm being told by a random person on the internet that they are right, the other random people are wrong and the sources are wrong. Cool. Pick one version.

Wikipedia goes with the sources, especially because this is an article about a living person. Do you have a source or just another guess? - SummerPhD^v2.0 23:49, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Children’s names

Is it allowed or necessary to list all of his children’s names, as well as their mothers? With the exception of Kacey because of Kacey Talk, I’m not sure these are necessary pieces of information especially since the kids are all minors and with the possible exception of Mayweather’s daughter the women are not public figures. This feels like it’s bordering WP:BLPNAME issues. CAMERAwMUSTACHE (talk) 15:32, 24 September 2021 (UTC)

NBA Youngboy's Baptism

Hi everyone, I know it's around a week old, but there are some websites like Deseret News, Variety, Complex and XXL Mag making the headlines that the rapper has converted to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. (AKA The Mormon Church although it is distancing itself from that name).

Should his baptism be included or is it redundant for this page? MOADooAH1 (talk) 02:03, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
