Moneybagg Yo’s photographer is being rewarded for earning his college diploma.

The Memphis rapper took to Instagram on Thursday to congratulate his cameraman Matt DiMarino for graduating college, revealing that he’s compensating the graduate for earning good grades.

“Told my cameraman @mattdedits every A u get is $250 and every B is $100 til he graduate,” Moneybagg captioned a picture of his photographer donning a cap and gown. “He been bussin me up every other week, $1500 bonuses. Congrats bro proud of U.”

DiMarino shared Moneybagg’s post on his own Stories, writing, “Blessed to be able to grind. No days off.”

Moneybagg Yo is reaping the benefits of his recent success, and for good reason. Last year he earned his first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 with the release of his fourth studio LP A Gangsta’s Pain. He sustained his momentum by releasing a deluxe edition in October and dropping a string of singles this spring.

Over the past month, the Collective Music Group rapper has joined forces with DaBaby on “Wig” and Kodak Black on “Rocky Road,” as well as releasing his latest solo offering “See Wat I’m Saying.” Most recently, Moneybagg teamed up with CMG boss Yo Gotti, as well as label mates Mozzy and Lil Poppa, for their collaborative single “Big League.”
