NBA YoungBoy Thanks Donald Trump for Presidential Pardon: “This Moment Means a Lot”

Rapper NBA YoungBoy is showing gratitude to President Donald Trump after receiving a presidential pardon.

Trump, who’s been handing out pardons like lottery tickets to rappers, reality stars, and ex-government officials, added NBA YoungBoy to the growing list of beneficiaries.

In 2024, while under house arrest in Utah, the rapper was arrested and hit with 63 charges related to an alleged prescription drug fraud ring operating out of his multimillion-dollar home. The charges included identity fraud and forgery. He later accepted a plea deal resulting in a 23-month federal sentence, a $25,000 fine, and five years of supervised probation.

Now pardoned, YoungBoy broke his silence in a social media statement:

“I want to thank President Trump for granting me a pardon and giving me the opportunity to keep building, as a man, as a father, and as an artist. This moment means a lot. It opens the door to a future I’ve worked hard for, and I am fully prepared to step into this.”

With this legal hurdle behind him, the Louisiana native is setting his sights on headlining his tour, the ‘MASA (Making America Slime Again) Tour’ set to start in September.
