NBA YoungBoy shares family selfies, praises Jazlyn Mychelle. NBA YoungBoy penned a sweet note to his wife, Jazlyn Mychelle, on Tuesday, and his fans are loving the husband energy! He also included some casual family selfies with Jaz, her baby bump, and their other two kids. NBA YoungBoy says Jazlyn Mychelle keeps him clean. He's a man of few words, but this week, NBA YoungBoy used some to hype his wife, Jaz, for how she loves him. In the caption of his Instagram post, he wrote, "You literally my everything. Without you, ain't none of this. I get real dirty, you clean me. I love you." He added a few emojis that look like kids to the caption. Meanwhile, one photo shows NBA YoungBoy cheesing while posing in mirror with Jazlyn. Another bathroom selfie, seemingly from a different day, shows the couple posing in a bathroom but their daughter, son and bare baby bump made an appearance! The other two photos in the post are of YoungBoy solo, posing in a garage next to car and smoking somewhere outdoors. Fans are clapping it up for rapper's growth. Since posting, 1.3 million have tapped the like button and over 24,000 fans have showed up in the comment section. Many are applauding NBA YoungBoy's growth and how he stands ten toes down behind Jazlyn Mychelle! "Bro truly love Jazz," @topoff3800_1z commented. "When a man commits he commits | ," @corporatediva1 added. What have the couple been up to? It's seemingly been a solid last few months for NBA YoungBoy! He wrapped his 42-show 'Make America Slime Again' tour in November, kicked it with his family for the holidays and Complex recently named him the best rapper alive for 2025. Then, just days ago, on Monday, his album 'Slime Cry' debuted at No. 6 on the Top 10 Albums chart for Billboard 200. The project reportedly sold 70,000 total units, and had 72.6 million streams. This marks the NBA YoungBoy's 17th album to land in the top 10. As for Jazlyn Mychelle, sis has been out the way, baking her baby and living her soft life in private - from slaying a new hairstyle to making soul food at home. Earlier this month, she gave a fans a look inside her latest maternity shoot.
Backstage at J. Cole's Dreamville Festival over the weekend, Complex caught up with Luda and a host of others to find out what their favorite rap track is, and the answer was a no-brainer for the Atlanta talent.
