Youngboy's baby mama.
Before NBA Youngboy would drop the track Dirty Iyana which accused her of having a hot temper
and having sliced the tired on her car.
Before would clock in 1.2 Million followers on Instagram and would embark on a career
as a rapper under the moniker MoneyYaya.
Imagine growing up a multi-millionaire through birth and don't gotta worry about a damn thing
for the rest of your life to end up facing up to 99 years in jail all over a scrap you
had about your ex boyfriend. Crazy right? Well that's Yaya's reality right now. The
19 year old was arrested and placed behind bars following a graphic and violent altercation
with Lapattra Jacobs who shares a child with NBA Youngboy. The incident reportedly occurred
on April 4th around 1:30 a.m. when Mayweather demanded Jacobs to leave the rapper's Houston
home. Jacobs refused and demanded Mayweather to leave, which prompted a physical fight
between the two women.
Law enforcement told TMZ that the altercation moved into YoungBoy's kitchen, where Mayweather
grabbed two kitchen utensils and and charged at the mother. The altercation resulted in
Jacob's hospitalization and Mayweather's arrest.
If convicted on the charge, Yaya could be slapped with a $10,000 fine or receive up
to 99 years in prison. With that being said, she had the best lawyers money could buy...
we will get into all that in just a second.
What's going on guys? It's your boy Michael McCrudden back at it again with a video we
have titled Before They Were Arrested cuase frankly I didn't know about her until all
this went down. We recentley dropped an updated Before They Were Famous on NBA YoungBoy and
we are thinking about doing some more Versus videos featuring him going up against 6ix9ine,
Drake or maybe even the late and great XXXTentacion. I need to hear from you guys who to feature
next in the comments down below, now let's get into this video.
Iyanna Mayweather aka YaYa was born on May 20th 2000 in Las Vegas Nevada. Her father
we all know as is Floyd Money Mayweather Jr and her mother is Melissa Brim. Iyanna’s
parents began dating each other in the late 1990s. Her mother, Melissa, was just 16 when
she met Floyd for the first time, at the lounge of a Las Vegas casino. Floyd and Melissa began
their relationship soon after their first meeting. Melissa already had a son named Devion
Cromwell. Floyd later adopted Devion. While Melissa was pregnant with her child with Floyd,
she reportedly had a conflict with his other girlfriend, Josie a woman who passed away
earlier this year in a separate incident. Eventually, Floyd
and Melissa grew apart in 2012, and the separation was not amicable. Melissa accused Floyd of
assaulting her verbally and physically on two different occasions. In one of the instances,
he had allegedly hit her in front of Iyanna. Floyd was on house arrest for 2 days. However,
he took the responsibility of the child they had together and Melissa, started dating someone
else. After the relationship ended, Floyd got in touch with her and apologized for traumatizing
her in the past. Now a days her mom owns a boutique in Las Vegas known as Devanna Love
Boutique using parts of both her children's names.
Iyana is one of a number of kids between the two parents, on her father’s side she has
half-siblings named Zion, Koraun and Jirah and on her mother’s side Devion whom I've
already mentioned. Iyanna obviously grew up privileged with dad being one of the highest
paid athletes in the world.
Iyanna graduated high school at the age of 15 and then received a diploma certificate
at the age of 18. She posted the pictures of her graduation ceremony on her 'Instagram'
account. Floyd also shared a post where the caption read:
The sacrifices we make for our loved ones are always blessings later on down the line.
I dropped out in the 12th grade, with just a couple of credits left to go just to give
my parents and siblings a better life. I encourage and preach to my children every day that education
is extremely important because I want them to be better than me. My daughter excelled
and finished high school when she was just 15yrs old, but decided to finally walk the
stage today and have the honor of receiving her diploma in her hand amongst her peers
and family. This is yet another family goal and a notch under our belts that makes me
proud to be a Father. I wonder who wrote that out for him?
Iyanna has admitted to having been spoilt by her father. For her 14th birthday party
she received a Mercedes 550 S-Class and had Justin Beiber perform.
Her sweet 16 party, which was held in 2016, was a mega event, complete with performances
by Future & Drake.
On her 18th birthday, Floyd gifted her a huge 18-carat 'Canary PRISTINE' ring worth $5 million,
again she had a star-studded birthday party thrown for her and for Christmas last year
he gifted her a G Wagon.
So what does a girl with endless opportunity want to do with her life, well boxing or professional
sports was never really even considered, instead Yaya decided to become a rapper. In October
2018, she released the music video of her song 'Oh Okay Remix' on her own 'YouTube'
channel which has clocked in a whopping 9K views but on the World Star Hip Hop Channel
it's pulled in over 1.5 Million views. The video and her rapping style have received
mixed reviews.
She's also a social media star with over a million followers on Instagram but her Twitter
and YouTube channel is struggling with only 624 Subscribers. Aright, let's get into her
relationship with NBA Youngboy.
This relationship seemed to get a lot of attention online, people have even meme'd them.
The two have been on and off for some time and their break ups have been quite public
most notably in his track Dirty Iyana which he flips Michael Jackson’s hit song, “Dirty
Diana,” to dish about the couple’s past relationship. In there he raps:
“Might have to gas all my cars / Don’t come out after dark / I see she won’t leave
me alone / She sliced the tires on my car.”
While the song doesn’t put his ex-girlfriend in the greatest light, Iyanna shared a video
seemingly giving the track her approval along with her mom.
Despite the salt the two's relationship would continue. NBA Youngboy living in Texas under
house arrest and Yaya visiting from Las Vegas the two continued to hang on the regular.
This takes us to April 4th when Yaya Mayweather allegedly arrived at the rapper’s home and
attacked the victim, Lapattra Jacobs under the guise that she was his fiancée. Jacobs
apparently defied Mayweather’s orders to leave and followed with instructing her to
the do the same. When Mayweather refused to leave, a confrontation ensued between the
two. The argument moved through several rooms before ending in the kitchen where Mayweather
was said to have been holding two knives. According to sources, Jacobs stepped towards
Mayweather prompting her to charge at her with one of the knives. Jacobs stated she
didn’t feel the first knife wound initially—but then said Mayweather charged at her again—stabbing
her for a second time. Mayweather claims the fight began after Jacobs started the attack
by pulling her hair outside before moving the disagreement inside of the house.
Jacobs suffered multiple lacerations to her arm—and was transported to the hospital
by EMT’s for non-threatening injuries. The victim has been reported to have underwent
surgery and is in stable condition. Youngboy commented on the incident via Twitter
where he tweeted, "Hold it down for your love one’s up in heaven and they will do the
same I’m very blessed and protected if you ask me,"
This incident is not the first time Mayweather has been accused of attacking someone the
rapper was involved with.
She was arrested Saturday morning, April 4th at around 1:30 a.m. and is being held in Houston’s
Harris County jail awaiting bail which she made pretty quickly. From there she went straght
back to Youngboy's house and was seen laying in his bed. It's unlikely she will receive
the maximum sentence, as she doesn't appear to have a criminal history. It's also worth
noting Mayweather is being represented by Kurt Schaffer, a famed attorney who has worked
for celebrities like Slim Thug, Pimp C, and Rap-A-Lot Records CEO J Prince.
