William Joseph Crawford (born on January 28, 1984), better known by his stage name Ya Boy, is an American rapper from the Fillmore District of San Francisco, California.
He graduated from El Camino High School in 2002. Shortly after, he started rapping in the same year, with his song "16's With Me" being the first to hit it big locally. It was produced by South San Francisco producer Big D and sampled the Imperial March from Star Wars. Ya Boy gained more attention from his song "100 Bars of Crack" where he raps 100 bars over Dr. Dre's "Nuthin' But a "G" Thang" beat (featured on The Black Wall Street Journal Vol. 1) and "100 More Bars" which is done in the same style, but it uses the instrumental from the Jim Jones song "We Fly High".
Ya Boy was given his name by his cousin Bailey, and was helped to develop into a rap artist by his other cousin San Quinn. In the Summer of 2005, Ya Boy released his first solo mixtape, Future of the Franchise. This was to be followed up by his debut album, Rookie of the Year on Done Deal Entertainment, LLC. His album features E-40, Turf Talk, Clyde Carson of The Team, San Quinn and more. The first single off the album was produced by Rick Rock and is titled "Step Ya Game Up." Done Deal also owns the rights to another Ya Boy album, titled West Coast Machine (originally called The Machine), however, a release date for this album has not yet been determined. All songs on the album were recorded from 2004-2006. Ya Boy is still on good terms with Done Deal and does songs with the label on a regular basis. He the cousin of Done Deal's owner, San Quinn and rapper Messy Marv.
In 2006, Ya Boy began an affiliation with The Black Wall Street. The Game took him under his wing. His affiliation with Game brought him a step higher in the rap game, as he began to collaborate with big name producers such as JR Rotem, Nu Jerzey Devil and Scott Storch. Pop star Britney Spears' then-husband Kevin Federline called upon Ya Boy to co-write songs and appear as a guest on Federline's debut album Playing with Fire. Ya Boy was also featured in the Source magazine in September 2006 as the Unsigned Hype. Ya Boy is also known to sport the Heroics clothing brand, whose lead designer Devon Almarinez created the official Ya Boy brand logo, which is tattooed on Ya Boy's neck.
He now released the single for "Holla at Ya Boy" produced by Cool & Dre for his self-titled album called Holla at Ya Boy.
