YBN Nahmir has remade his YBN collective. Cordae and Almighty Jay left the group and abandoned their YBN moniker in 2020, and since then it seems Nahmir has been hard at work finding their replacements.
In a New Year’s resolution-esque video posted to Instagram, the 22-year-old showcased a new collection of glittering diamond chains, presumably meant for new members of the collective.
“2022 come join da winning team bitch,” Nahmir wrote in the caption.

Nahmir hitting the refresh button on his YBN crew comes after the founder tweeted his disappointments of how things had gone.
“I put my all into everybody & ain’t get shit back but a slap in the face,” Nahmir wrote on December 5. “Focus on yourself, that’s the only way you’ll be you.”
The beef between Nahmir and Almighty Jay dragged on very publicly into 2021. Over the summer, the feud escalated to near physical violence between the pair, but neither rapper could decide on a location to throw down.

“He already know I’m gonna beat his ass,” Jay said in an Instagram video. “I might as well get paid to beat his ass and I want to do it in front of everybody. I’m the one trying to make the fight happen, how am I nervous? You don’t know how bad I want it to happen. You thin as hell, you know I’ma punch a hole through your ass.”
Nahmir was quick to respond. “I been tryna beat your ass, just like I beat your mans and them up. When y’all see cuz hurt with all them black eyes, n-ggas ain’t hit cuz with bottles this time. Tell n-ggas to drop a location in Houston we gon’ pop out.”
While a physical altercation never happened, Akademiks later unearthed a clip of Jay saying that financial disputes had led to the dispute with Nahmir.
“So like two years ago, this little beef between me … an incident end up like, occurring with some n-ggas I used to be cool with,” Jay explains in the clip. “They end up doing something and Nahmir end up gettin’ caught up in it somehow. Mind you, I ain’t cool with these n-ggas no more now that the incident has happened.”

He added that he ended up paying $30,000, while Nahmir paid $10,000. While things aren’t as heated, it remains to be seen whether Nahmir and Jay have patched things up. YBN Nahmir’s last project, Visionland arrived in March 2021 and spawned the gold-selling, 21 Savage-featuring “Opp Stoppa” single.
