NBA YoungBoy's explosive X rant has ignited social media drama, pulling in Dejounte Murray's father with unsolicited advice. The NBA star subtly reacted by liking a comment urging fans to leave him out of it. Meanwhile, his girlfriend Jania Meshell flexes her new ride amid the chaos.
Oh, the timeline is on fire! 🔥 NBA YoungBoy dropped a series of cryptic, heated tweets on Wednesday, shading 'lame dudes with money' and even one of his baby mamas. 'I’m gon keep it real, all the “P’s” just lame dudes with money. Y’all bag keep these h*, I’m him. N* f*** you,' he wrote, before escalating: 'And to my baby mama, f*** this industry h** stuff. I don’t like you neither. Let me pop out.' He kept the shots coming with lines like 'Privacya b*, I don’t like ya!!' and 'Ooh… I want one of you b* to say something today. I been waiting!! And you ain’t bout no murder.' Fans were left scrambling to decode the targets.
Enter Dejounte Murray's dad, who chimed in under a repost of YB's tweets. He advised, 'This proves that money doesn’t make you happy for long. You gotta attach yourself to some outdoor activities and enjoy life. I’ve hardly ever seen this man post positive thoughts. Hopefully he can find a good therapist because growing up in the hood will have you looking at every situation on a toxic level. Pick your battles, young man.' YB fired back hard: 'Oh man, you unexpected, old a*,' and 'But f** you pops, you’ll get slapped tf out. Let me fight with my h**, bruh. I’m not even talking ’bout that one #fool.' The exchange, tied to Dejounte dating Jania Meshell (mother of one of YB's sons), had YB fans flooding the father's page with backlash.
Dejounte's pops clapped back with a video captioned, 'My own experience. I’m headed to the beach & y’all be too soft and always getting in your feelings over celebrities that don’t give a f about you. Go get some money and seek help if you’re miserable.' In the clip, he blasted YB's 'Kacey Talk' and gushed over YB's son as his 'grandson,' showing no real beef with the rapper.
Dejounte? He kept it classy (or shady, depending on your view) by liking a comment on his post: 'Y’all slow… Whatever his dad and YB got going don’t got nun to do with him!' Smart move, staying above the fray. Meanwhile, Jania was living her best life on Tuesday, flaunting a sleek all-black 2026 Range Rover on TikTok: 'New 2026 Range Rover. Thanks to my man.' 💅
Social media is a mess, as usual. Under The Shade Room, comments range from confusion (@_taliaskye23: 'I came to the comments to see who he was talkin bout and don’t nobody know either') to shade (@itsparisdior: 'He mad cause nene man got her a new car'). Some defend the dad (@kuttt.hroatsum: 'the daddy didn’t say anything about jania. He said that man mind is negative and it’s not wrong'), while others call out the intrusion (@universal_godess: 'Yb literally said he wasn’t talking about jania so his pops looks crazy for inserting himself'). @ms.skyami nailed it: 'Ngl every time Dejounte in drama the man never the one that put himself in it.' So, is this feud fizzling out, or just heating up for round two?
