A Utah Highway Patrol bodycam video that surfaced online this week shows troopers pulling over rapper NBA YoungBoy, born Kentrell Gaulden, in an orange Lamborghini Aventador SVJ worth roughly $980,000 after the supercar was spotted without a visible plate. Within seconds of reaching the window, the troopers realize exactly who is behind the wheel, and the clip has already racked up millions of views since it went viral, according to The Source’s coverage of the footage.

What The Footage Actually Shows
The stop plays out almost nothing like a typical traffic encounter. Troopers search the Aventador and turn up close to $100,000 in cash, prompting one officer to admit on camera that he had never personally seen that much money at once. YoungBoy hands the trooper a $100 bill as a keepsake, the mood stays loose, and at one point his own music plays from a patrol car speaker while the rapper name-drops that he also owns an armored tank, per the same report. No one is detained, no citation drama unfolds on camera, and the encounter wraps up cooperatively.
A Familiar Stretch Of Utah Highway
This is not the first time Gaulden’s name has landed in a Utah Highway Patrol report. A separate, officially documented stop on Interstate 15 in Utah County put Gaulden in the passenger seat of a different vehicle that troopers searched on probable cause, turning up illicit drugs, according to Fox 13 Salt Lake City’s reporting on the case. The driver and a female passenger claimed the drugs as their own, and prosecutors never filed charges against Gaulden himself. Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Mike Alexander told KUTV that “in consultation with the Utah County Attorney’s Office, it was decided that charges would be screened” against the other two occupants, not the rapper.
Taken together, the two encounters paint a picture of a chart-topping artist whose supercar collection and celebrity keep intersecting with the same patrol corridor. Gaulden has sold platinum records and topped Billboard charts under the YoungBoy Never Broke Again name for nearly a decade, and that recognizability is precisely what turns a routine equipment violation, a missing plate, into a moment troopers can’t help but react to on camera.
