Mally Mall & Starboys Music: The Production Force Fueling NBA YoungBoy’s Chart Domination.
Mally Mall and his powerhouse production team Starboys Music have once again proven their dominance, working closely with rap star NBA YoungBoy on both the chart-topping album MASA and the explosive mixtape DeShawn.
The project arrives as Mally Mall and Starboys Music continue to help shape the sound of today’s hip-hop, fresh off their work on MASA, which featured fan-favorites “Cash Off,” “Kickboxer,” “Lo,” and “Slimretta” — all produced by Mally Mall and his team. In addition, the collective powered DeShawn, delivering hard-hitting records including “AI Marley,” “Blazers,” “By the Gate,” “Lord Forgive Me,” “My’Ya,” and “Raq Sh*t.” These back-to-back placements underscore Starboys Music’s influence on YoungBoy’s creative output.
MASA, released July 25, 2025, debuted at No. 6 on the Billboard 200, pulling in 49,000 album-equivalent units and 69 million on-demand streams in its first week. It also marked YoungBoy’s 16th career top-10 album, tying him with Jay-Z and Nas for the third-most top-10 entries among rappers.
Just weeks later, DeShawn delivered another massive win, tallying 69 million on-demand streams in its opening week — an extraordinary feat for a mixtape release. Together, these projects cement Mally Mall and Starboys Music as the driving creative force behind some of YoungBoy’s most impactful records this year, with “AI Marley” emerging as the runaway fan favorite.
“We’re in a season of consistency,” said Mally Mall. “From NBA YoungBoy to MASA to DeShawn, our team is proving that when Starboys Music locks in, we deliver classics.”
