YoungBoy Never Broke Again keeps his output relentless with the release of Slime Cry, a 30-track album that landed on January 16. The Baton Rouge rapper, known for stacking projects at a pace few can match, slots this one right after a string of 2025 drops like MASA, DESHAWN, and More Leaks. At this point, he’s built a catalog that dominates charts and streaming platforms. He remains the youngest artist to cross 100 Billboard Hot 100 entries and holds the record for the most charting albums of any rapper. His YouTube numbers currently outpace heavyweights like Drake, Morgan Wallen, and Bad Bunny by a wide margin.
The project digs into familiar territory but with the kind of twists that keep his sound unpredictable. Tracks shift from hard-edged boasts to moments of raw self-examination, pulling in internet slang and abrupt changes in direction that mirror the chaos of his life. His flow stays grounded in that Deep South cadence with drawn-out syllables, heavy on melody, laced with menace, which gives everything a regional stamp even as the themes feel universal.
Beyond the music, YoungBoy Never Broke Again has turned into a serious live draw. Pollstar recently ranked him 13th among global tours, pulling an average of $1.6 million per city. The MASA tour last year set a new benchmark for him on the road, proving his fanbase shows up in force.
What ties Slime Cry together is how seamlessly the contrasts work within his established framework. The switches between aggression and vulnerability don’t feel forced; they land as extensions of the same restless mindset. Production choices lean into atmospheric keys and sparse drums that let his voice carry the weight, creating a through-line that makes the length feel purposeful rather than bloated. It’s another entry that reinforces why his streak stays unbroken.
