Rapper XXXTentacion attends the BET Hip Hop Awards 2017 at The Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theater on October 6, 2017 in Miami Beach, Florida.

Looks like XXXTENTACION is about to live the college life.

Things are looking very up for XXXTENTACION right now. The Broward County rapper's gearing up to drop his sophomore album, ?, this Friday but before that, he had some great news to share. After announcing that he'd be going to art school, the rapper took to Instagram today to reveal that he has plans of going to college next.

XXXTENTACION took to his Instagram story today to reveal that he'll be going to college. The rapper seemed genuinely excited and shocked simultaneously as he revealed the news to his followers.

"I never thought I would say this but, I'm going to college. I will do better than those before me. I will surpass all of you!" He screamed into the mic.

Meanwhile, the post's caption read, "IM GOING TO COLLEGE BABY!!! GETTING THIS GED AND SURPASSING THOSE BEFORE ME!!!"

It's pretty solid news for X especially with all the controversy that's constantly attached to his name. The rapper was placed on house arrest after his court date in December where he received eight more felony charges for alleged witness tampering. However, the rapper was allowed to fulfill his contractual agreements and continue recording.

Aside from that, X will also be performing for his "A Helping Hand" benefit concert for the victims of the Parkland City High School shooting.

Watch his college announcement below.
