Bold Records artist, YB is back with his 6 track EP, “Provision”, a collection of tracks that are inspired by coming from nothing, pushing and working hard to achieve his goals, and keeping the faith, the drive, and the passion, while fighting other life struggles.
“I knew early on I wanted to pursue music seriously. Growing up I watched the greats create moments through music that impacted the way people lived their lives. Seeing the effect struck a chord in me. I’m passionate about adding value to people, so the decision to figure out how and what was a no brainer,” explains YB. “The Greatest is easily my favorite song on the ep. It was the last song to make the project, but it was what I was missing. I wanted a record that could engage whoever pressed play but also arranged in a way that informed them of the climate of our society. As an artist, I feel obligated to speak the truth. “The greatest” is the peak of that conviction.”
Despite having a challenging upbringing as one of 8 children, and having a single mother, he kept the drive and the passion to chat after his dreams. YB found the presence of God at a young age and has steadily been following Christ since, including HIM in everything he does.
YB is originally from Pine Bluff, AR, but has spent most of his life on the road, not quite belonging in any one place. Despite a challenging upbringing as one of 8 children in a single mother home, YB found the presence of God at a young age. However, he remained wary of Christianity for many years because of the high commitment he knew it would require following Christ.
