Moneybagg Yo is continuing his 29th birthday celebration with his new project making it into the top 10 on the Billboard 200. His collaborative album with Blac Youngsta, Code Red, has debuted at No. 6 on the chart with roughly 40,000 equivalent album units earned.
On Sunday (September 28), the Memphis rapper felt like bragging about his income by posting a video of him picking up racks of money and stacking them on his lap — all from inside a Bentley.
“Which Video Y’all Wanna See Next Off #CodeRed,” Moneybagg wrote as the Instagram caption while blasting the album’s opening track “Birthplace.”
So far, the project has produced visuals for “SRT,” “Super Hot,” “Truth Be Told” and the original version of “Said Sum.” YG, who collaborated with Moneybagg on his 2018 song “Curry Jersey,” also commented on the Instagram video with laughing emojis.
Code Red‘s first week numbers are made up of 37,000 SEA units (equalling 51.5 million on-demand streams), 3,000 album sales and 1,000 TEA units. The LP, which features Yo Gotti, 42 Dugg, City Girls, DaBaby and others, is Moneybagg’s second time in the top 10 this year after his solo album Time Served debuted at No. 3 in January with roughly 66,000 units.
Over the past week, shootings have taken place at two of Moneybagg’s events. On Saturday (September 26), shots were fired at Moneybagg’s party in Dallas, where staff at strip club V Live reportedly had to lock themselves inside rooms to avoid gunfire.
The weekend’s news followed reports of gunfire at his Las Vegas party on Tuesday (September 23). Taking place outside the Aria Resort & Casino, a fight broke out near the valet station, with one woman suffering a minor injury after a bullet grazed her.
Moneybagg denied his involvement, saying, “Shot at who? Ain’t no muthafuckas shot at us, man. I’m in a Maybach right now man. My muthafucking shoes off. As I speak my shoes off in this bitch. Wassup? And I’m riding through this bitch. I’m in Vegas.”
MoneyBagg Yo Dallas Afterparty Erupts With Gunfire
Prior to the incident, Youngsta called for a “shootout” on Instagram while also in Vegas celebrating Moneybagg’s birthday.
“Where you pussy-ass n***as at?” Youngsta said. “Let’s have some fun. Let’s have a shootout. Let’s do something, n***a. C’mon bitch, pull up.”
After Kodak Black admitted that “prop money” is used in videos, I dont believe none of these rappers when they show bands. It looks hella fake. Especially knowing that any work they do is gonna get paid by cashapp or wired to their account. Same goes for purchases. Theres no illogical reason to be carrying all that cash around so I think its all fake. You do the math, 40,000 units sold at 10 bucks a download is $400,000 and you know the record company gonna keep like 80% of that. No live performances due to covid. These rappers arent that rich. Its all a front. Thats real talk.

Facts ??????
of course it is. its all to maintain an image for the public to eat up, this isn’t anything new. I will say this tho, moneybagg yo legit got bread, that aint a joke.
Lol y’all some hating ass, neva been hustlin ass mofos on here. Like he’s in a car that cost $300,000 showing 200-400k in cash and all you incels can say is “the car is probably a lease and the money is fake” damn y’all get money, not envious
The funny thing is, if people knew business they’d understand leasing is the way to go. Lease the expensive ass car under your business and it becomes a tax write-off, upgrade to the last every 3 years, never have to deal with maintenance or depreciation. Unless you’re really into it, it’s dumb af to buy a $300k car brand new.
They rent the cars by the hour bro. Most big cities have dozens of exotic car rentals. If you were going to be in Miami or Vegas for the night, why would you bring a car from your hometown ? Its all a front man. Prop money and car rentals.
Don’t you hate when people say “Stop pocket watching” then try and show off $300k…. Maybe if you didn’t flash it, people wouldn’t watch.
