NBA YoungBoy has hit out at an interviewer for asking a question about J. Cole.
YoungBoy recently sat down for an interview with fashion influencer Liz “Lizzie Pure” Korn, but the rapper was left less than happy about the experience.
Responding to Pure posting about the interview on Instagram, the Never Broke Again boss angrily commented: “Go report this hoe page this bitch unprofessional and clout chasing.”
He later added: “You a dog ass bitch ain’t nobody approved none of this you doing. You tried with that bullshit clip with @realcoleworld saying he’ll be able to remove anything if he wanted it then released it it. ‘Dead bitch walking.’”
It is not clear exactly why YoungBoy took issue with the Cole question given he appeared to happily discuss the topic during the interview.
When asked if he’d still collaborate with the Dreamville leader, he replied: “Come on Gravedigger Mountain and we’ll see,” referring to his home in Utah where he’s currently on house arrest.

NBA YoungBoy and J. Cole appeared to have had issues in the past.
On his song “Fuck the Industry Pt. 2” from earlier this year, the Baton Rouge native took aim at Cole for allegedly turning down a collaboration: “J a ho, that n-gga played it cold like he was gon’ do a feature/ So I texted his line, a muscle sign, I swear it’s gon’ be nice to meet you.”
It had previously been reported by Akademiks that the two had made plans to work together in the studio, but YoungBoy left Cole waiting for several hours and never showed up.
The Off-Season rapper seemingly responded on “The Secret Recipe,” a collaboration with Lil Yachty that dropped in September: “N-ggas makin’ threats and I laugh, that’s ’cause you ain’t a threat/ Don’t ask how I feel ’bout no rappers, shit, they okay, I guess/ Incomin’ call, press the button, the one that say accept/ He FaceTime to ask for a feature and saw the face of death.”

However, his longtime manager Ibrahim “IB” Hamad denied speculation that Cole was dissing YoungBoy on the song. “I’m pretty sure this is [cap]. Not sure how y’all heard that cole verse and put that together, impressive,” he wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
Cole himself later confirmed on his Drake collaboration “First Person Shooter” that there was no beef.
“I still wanna get me a song with YB/ Can’t trust everything that you saw on IG/ Just know if I diss you, I made sure you know that I hit you like I’m on your caller ID,” he rapped.
