NBA Youngboy spoke about his appearance and his newfound love for wearing makeup while speaking with DJ Akademiks on Clubhouse.
“I like doing my face, I like painting my face or putting makeup on,” YoungBoy told Akademiks. “I like to look in the mirror and see everything black, my eyes and sh*t.”
The Baton Rouge rapper admitted that wearing makeup makes him feel good. “That’s 100 percent real. That’s me being myself. I feel comfortable in a way.”
NBA Youngboy clarified that he is not wearing face paint and that he is wearing makeup brand MAC Cosmetics.
“That’s some sh*t from MAC,” he said. “I made my engineer go buy it. It give me like the goth feeling, like rockstar or some sh*t.”
