But when something seems too good to be true, it most times is. Moneybagg had a love for hip hop music and listened to hood legends like Boosie, Yo Gotti, Juvenile, and Future (6:44-6:50) so it only made sense that being in a room of homies rapping and getting money, he would have the idea of why not doing that himself (1:39-2:10) It would start as just a way to make it out the struggle, but overtime, he realized he had a passion for it and that’s when Moneybagg Yo became Moneybagg Yo.
