"I Don’t Give A F*Ck"- NBA Youngboy Responded To The Critics Of His Makeup

Finally, NBA YoungBoy responded to the critics about his new makeup obsession. The teenage Baton Rouge rapper says he doesn't care what others think after images of him dressed up as a "goth" with black makeup around his eyes and white makeup on the rest of his face triggered criticism.
Some critics have even gone as far as saying that the father of seven was now gay after his return from prison. Born Kentrell Gaulden Jr., NBA YoungBoy, is currently on bail as he awaits his trials in California and Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

When asked why he was wearing makeup, the rapper said he liked dabbling in the products traditionally used by women and LGBTQ people.
“I like painting my face, putting makeup on,” he said during a Clubhouse chat. “I like to look in the mirror and see everything black. Like my eyes and sh*t.”
YoungBoy added, “That’s one hundred percent real! That’s me being myself. Just, I don’t know. I feel comfortable that way… It give me like, the goth feeling, like rockstars.”

While wearing makeup might seem unusual for male rappers to some, there have been other weird trends in hip hop by male artists that fans have raised their eyebrows at, including wearing nail polish, and some heterosexual artists have even been styled in unisex clothing and garments, which some might argue is more feminine than masculine.
Nevertheless, self-expression and art have always been connected to music. Fans, however, did not feel that way towards Youngboy as they dragged him on Tuesday for another photo shared of him all painted up.

NBA YoungBoy, however, responded to critics telling them to leave him alone. “Tell them stop liking me,” he reportedly wrote in a screenshot of text messages. “I don’t give a f*ck I got what I came in for. And if you never liked me why it matter [sad face emoji].”
Some of NBA YoungBoy’s fans have defended him from being bullied as they make the argument that other non-Black artists easily get away with the same look, but black rappers are kept in a box.
In any event, the 22-year-old rapper, who is considered as one of the most talented rappers of his generation, appears to be reinventing his style. Other fans have pointed out that given his year, including his arrests and jail time, it is understandable why he could be looking for an escape and using face paint to do it.
