AceShowbiz - YoungBoy Never Broke Again has committed to paying the funeral expenses for a young girl from Louisiana who tragically lost her life in an accidental shooting earlier this month.

Kimani Thomas, a 10-year-old girl from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, was fatally wounded on March 10 when a younger relative unintentionally discharged a firearm. The incident took place as Kimani’s stepfather was heading to work at a Sonic drive-in on Government Street, and her mother was finishing her shift. While Kimani played outside the family car, the younger relative found the gun and accidentally fired, striking Kimani.

Following the heartbreaking event, Kimani’s mother shared on social media that YoungBoy Never Broke Again stepped in to cover the funeral costs. She expressed her gratitude and highlighted that her daughter was a big fan of the rapper.

"I know Baton Rouge loves to highlight the negative things people do, but I want to be the first to thank NBA YoungBoy and his team," Kimani’s mother wrote. "As I type this with tears in my eyes, my baby Kimani's funeral is officially paid for!"

The mother also shared a hopeful message, imagining her daughter dancing joyfully in heaven, reflecting her love for her favorite artist’s music.

Kimani Thomas’s funeral is planned for March 28 in Baton Rouge. Efforts to get a comment from NBA YoungBoy’s representatives have been made but no response has been reported.

This generous act by YoungBoy Never Broke Again has drawn attention in the community, highlighting a compassionate side amidst the tragedy. The story was first reported by local news outlet WBRZ and has since gained wider coverage.

The incident is a somber reminder of the dangers of firearms around children and the impact of accidental shootings on families and communities.
