During his appearance on the Rap Radar Podcast in February, YoungBoy claimed he would be “talking crazy” on Don’t Try This At Home, but clarified his lyrics are purely for entertainment purposes.
“I’ma talk crazy on there,” he said. “I’ma show you Murda Man. I’ma talk crazy on there, but I’m letting you know though, don’t try this at home. It’s all entertainment, bruh. I’ma talk my shit and everything I’m talking, letting you know, don’t try this at home.
“Entertainment and reality is very different. What I do think, some of the entertainers make their entertainment their reality also, if I said that right.”
YoungBoy’s last album I Rest My Case was released in January via Motown Records.
