Rapper NBA YoungBoy, whose real name is Kentrell Gaulden, announced on his new album “Make America Slime Again” that he is expecting his 13th child, his third with his wife, Jazlyn Mychelle. The announcement came through the track “If You Need Me,” where he references their growing family. This follows reports from July 2025 indicating he already has at least 12 children with eight different women.
In the album’s track “XXX,” YoungBoy also expresses support for President Donald Trump, referencing his 2025 pardon for federal gun and drug charges. The pardon, granted on May 28, 2025, freed YoungBoy from a 23-month sentence and probation, allowing him to focus on his career and family. He thanked Trump, stating the pardon gave him “the opportunity to keep building — as a man, as a father, and as an artist.”
YoungBoy’s upcoming 27-city “Make America Smile Again” (MASA) tour, starting September 2, 2025, in Dallas, appears to nod to Trump’s influence. The pardon has stirred mixed reactions, with some Utah officials criticizing it, claiming their justice system was not politically motivated. Social media buzz, particularly on X, shows fans reacting with humor and disbelief to his growing family, with memes joking about his “starting five” or comparisons to Genghis Khan.
