Kevin Gates was a mentor to NBA YoungBoy, and even got a tattoo of the younger Baton Rouge rapper.

However, their relationship has soured over the years, with YoungBoy taking a shot at Gates in "F*ck Breadwinners" last year.

Last month, Gates got drunk and said nasty things about YB.

"They want you to think different of me, you stupid mother f*cker, your bitch control you, bitch," Gates said.  "You b*tch a$$ ni*gga talking that gangsta sh*t. You claim to be a monster but I know what you are.  We did a video in Watts and you didn't get out of the car. You didn't get out the car."

During a recent chat, a YoungBoy fan told Gates that his guy was going to beat him up for his disrespect.

Here's how Gates responded:

"Please don't hurt me.  Please, I'm so pussy." Gates said laughing. "I'm scared. No. God no."

Does YoungBoy have to respond to that sarcasm?
