Bloods is a street gang which is based in Los Angeles. The gang is famous for its involvement in drugs, theft, and murder, among other criminal activities. The predominately African American gang is traditionally associated with the color red. It is nationally known for its rivalry with the Crips gang.
The gang was said to be formed in the early 1970s as the Crips spread throughout Los Angeles. Various gangs who refused to join the Crips banded together for protection. They eventually took the name Bloods and adopted the color red to distinguish it from the Crips’ blue.
Now let’s examine if NBA Youngboy is crip or blood.
NBA Youngboy himself hasn’t come out saying he is part of either crip or blood. However, there are good arguments on both sides.
Is NBA Youngboy a Blood?
NBA Youngboy at the end of his song “I-10” has said Blood gang or no gang, UBN or UB Out. UBN stands for United Blood Nation. He is probably under Young Thug as he has the Young Thug Chain.
It’s not new information that NBA Youngboy is the general of the 4kt gang. 4KT is a gang created by NBA YoungBoy. It is also short for “For Kentrall Trey” a fallen friend of YoungBoy.
However, there are other rumors that 4kt is the first letter of NBA Youngboy’s children who are Kayden, Kamron, Taylin, Kamiri, Kacey) which has 4 k and 1 t.
4KT is rumored to be a Blood set formed by YB since he lives in LA. I believe this since there’s a number of Blood sets with Trey in their names (i.e. Nine Trey Gangsters).
Furthermore, it is rumored that NBA Youngboy is under Young Thug as he has a Young Thug Chain. Now we all know Young Thug is a big-time Blood and he has called NBA Youngboy to be free when he was arrested.
Youngboy was arrested in September 2020 after being reportedly connected for guns. After his arrest, Young Thug sent a message to the 4KT general, telling him to get home safely soon. “Free Young,” said the rapper on Instagram Stories. The two rappers have worked together on several occasions, including on 2018’s “Permanent Scar”.
So as things stand all things point out to NBA Youngboy being a Blood. However, let’s first examine his connections with Crip.
Is NBA Youngboy a Crip?
Now that we have examined the reasons for NBA Youngboy being a Blood let’s look at his associations with Crip.
Since NBA Youngboy made a song with Snoop Dogg who is thought to be part of the Crip gang there were some voices saying that NBA Youngboy is a Crip as why else would Snoop Dogg make a song with a Blood.
However, that is not always the case and in this business all that matters is money. Mozzy has also made a song with Snoop Dogg, and he has openly stated his affiliations with Blood. So, we can come to the conclusion that making a song with a Crip doesn’t make one a Crip.
So now it’s time for a conclusion.
Is NBA Youngboy a Blood or a Crip?
It seems likely that NBA Youngboy is part of Blood Gang more than that of him being part of a Crip.
hi im treasure i love all of your songs
how are you
young boy you cool but you should turn into crip better
no he shouldn’t turn into a crip blood hes better off with the bloods
in one of his songs it mentions “throwing up the C” but I’m not sure if that was YB or someone else feat. in his song
4ktrey all day blood
Tbh Youngboy should stay Blood Gang. He’s better off because in Crip’s no one will know him and try to kill YB. Leave him alone and let him live his Gangster life
