Youngboy Never Broke Again Announces Debut Album 'Until Death Call My Name'  Image

Never Broke Again recording artist (managed by Good Money Global) YoungBoy Never Broke Again has announced his debut album, "UNTIL DEATH CALL MY NAME." The highly anticipated release is available for pre-order today https://youngboy.lnk.to/udcmnPR. All pre-orders will receive two instant grats, "Solar Eclipse" and "Outside Today" - with the latter's companion visual streaming now via YoungBoy's official Youtube channel.

When asked about what this album means to him, Youngboy states "I just want to strive to be the best man I can be. I want to spend as much time with my children and family as I can. I want to keep working on all of this music every day. I just want to go as hard as I can until death calls my name."

The Baton Rouge rapper's debut album is the official follow up to 2017's standout "AI YOUNGBOY" and comes after a number of mixtapes that were met with much success over the last year, including "AIN'T TOO LONG."

"AI YOUNGBOY" has proven one of last year's most highly regarded projects with inclusion on an array of year-end lists including The New York Times' "Best Albums of 2017 and Vulture's "10 Best Rap Albums of 2017," which declared the mixtape to be "a spotless introduction to (YoungBoy's) world." Pitchfork named "AI YOUNGBOY" to its "20 Best Rap Albums of 2017," writing, "It's a cold and absorbing project that bubbles with pent-up rage and unease as it hides trauma with gun-toting machismo... (YoungBoy) has grown into a formidable MC in his own right, versatile and charming. These are tales of a young man trying to find his way, one who feels beholden to the same streets that could cost him his life." "YoungBoy is rapping harder than ever about doing what's necessary to stay on a path to salvation," wrote Noisey in its "100 Best Albums of 2017." "The bigger space he gives to spirited harmonizing adds more tenderness to his sentiments towards getting his family on solid ground, outside of Louisiana's borders. The result of both is a layered emotional outpouring well beyond his years."

"AIN'T TOO LONG" - was first unleashed towards the end of 2017 to widespread critical applause, including XXL, which praised the lead single, "War With Us," as "a hard-body track (that) finds the young MC talking tough while posting up in the hood." "'AIN'T TOO LONG' finds (YoungBoy) a better singer and songwriter than ever before," decreed Pitchfork. "He's never cold-hearted or detached. YoungBoy runs hot with revenge and remains obsessed with safeguarding his family at home and in the streets."
