Moneybagg Yo Reflects On Fans Embracing His Content
During a meet-up with Billboard, the “Wockesha” rapper spoke on his decision to start sharing more about his life on social media.
Whether he’s cheffin’ it up with Ari Fletcher, showing off his gains on TikTok, or coming through with the self-care content, Moneybagg hasn’t been shy about posting more about his life!
As a result, reporter Neena Rouhani remarked that he’s in his “content creator bag,” to which Moneybagg simply responded, “I’m a creative person. I like to create.”
He also addressed that, while he enjoys getting to “show personality” and highlight parts of his day-to-day life, he’s aware that he can’t show fans everything.
“I feel like they don’t know enough about me, but I also don’t want to give them all of me either. You don’t never want to do that.”

Additionally, the artist addressed how—although Ari had previously mentioned the matter—it was ultimately his decision to get more active on social media.
“She had mentioned it before, but [as far as] putting the foot down and just really pushing on and going forward, I took the initiative to just do it.”
He continued, adding that fans really “embraced” the content.
“People embraced it. Like the workout stuff, I ain’t even know they were gonna embrace those.”
