From a closet in Shreveport to stages in 10 states.

I’m DaeJohn Roddy. You know me as B Yungn.

Born and raised in Shreveport, Louisiana, off West 75th and Linwood. I’ve been making music since I was 8 years old. It started as something fun to do with my friends, and over time it turned into my passion.

Music was always going to leave a mark on me. My pops used to walk around the house freestyling every single day, and that sparked something in me. My moms was a drum major. She’s still my biggest supporter.

I started with a MacBook and BandLab in a small closet. My barber was the first to believe in me. He’s the one who took me to my first studio session. Since then I’ve done features with big local names and shows in about 10 states, all of it independent. I come from nothing.

Broken homes. Losing family members. Through all of it, music has been my therapy. I make songs to explain my pain and to be an outlet for anybody going through what I go through.

My biggest dream is to become a Billboard Hot 100 artist and make my name generational, a name every family knows. I’ve taken so many losses in this life. Now I want to win. And I love my fans.

“I wanna finally feel like my scars aren’t something I go through alone.”B Yungn

Raised on

NoCap, Michael Jackson, 50 Cent, NBA YoungBoy, Kevin Gates, and my pops.
