While we all continue to stomach Still Brazy and bump it in the whip with the windows down, YG has been going through some struggles in his personal life. He’s still dealing with the aftermath of being shot at his studio earlier this year and dealing with the repercussions.
For a while now, he’s felt the need to seek therapy and he did so before the release of his sophomore album.
During the span of two sessions, the Bompton rapper talked to a psychologist about the feelings he felt after being shot and how he’s dealt with it. YG shared that he’s heavy into alcohol because it helps him open up and he treats it as his own form of medication. The therapist also asked him about his family life, how his daughter changed him and how his father going to jail when he was a teenager may have affected him, as he tried to dig a little deeper into his conscious.
YG also revealed his feels paranoia ever since being shot and has a sense of guilt for being successful. Even though they only had two sessions, the therapist showed him some techniques to help him accept the fact that he could be happy enjoying the life he worked so hard to achieve.
