Moneybagg Yo and Yo Gotti were both spotted at The White House. Both were apparently there for President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden’s first Easter Egg Roll as Moneybagg had his children with him. This is the first event since COVID-19 with over 20,000 people in attendance. You may have thought Yo Gotti was there because he has been working with lawmakers in regard to criminal justice and prison reform. But if you are curious of Moneybagg Yo’s involvement, we’re not too sure. We can only think of one instance where his and the President’s name have come up.
Moneybagg Joe
President Biden and Moneybagg Yo have a little bit of history. When President Biden approved the stimulus plan to help out the country during the pandemic, Twitter decided his new name is Moneybagg Joe. Fans ran with it and ultimately made one of the best memes ever. So many different variations, mainly with a picture of Joe smiling dripping in jewelry with a whole lot of money. The hashtag #MoneybaggJoe was a long trend as you can still find many threads on Twitter.
Other rappers to visit the White House are Chance the Rapper, Ludacris, J.Cole, Nicki Minaj, and Common. This group in 2016, met with President Barack Obama in regard to justice reform and the My Brother’s Keeper movement. Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg, Lil Baby, and of course Kanye West have visited The White House as well.
Moneybagg Making His Moves
Moneybagg Yo is busy! After this, he went to Miami and performed with Lil Durk on his 7220 tour. Durk brought Moneybagg out as he performed his hit “Time Today”. He also joined Durk onstage along with the other guests such as DJ Khaled while Durk wrapped up his set to end the concert.
As it is NBA playoff season, and Moneybagg Yo’s hometown team, Memphis Grizzlies are the number 2 seed in the Western Conference. They fought hard in a Game 1 Loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, but after the game Grizzlies’ star Ja Morant had something to smile about.
Moneybagg Yo told Ja he was going to give him a Bread Gang chain and he kept his word. In Memphis at the FedExForum, he handed Ja the Diamond Bread Gang pendant right on the hardwood. Moneybagg Yo didn’t care that they lost, he still feels Ja is a winner as he said, “…either way it go he a champ to me he been putting on for our city regardless”.
