Young Thug tweeted then quickly deleted an unexpected statement, which comes in an already tense context, marked by rumors about Gunna’s loyalty to YSL Records and his involvement in the RICO affair which led to Young Thug’s incarceration.
On November 9, 2024, Young Thug posted an unequivocal message on X: “Gunna, stop acting like we’re internet friends, I don’t know you, dude.” This tweet, although quickly deleted, had time to make the rounds on social networks. This surprising statement comes in a particular context. Young Thug, recently released after accepting a plea deal in the RICO case involving YSL Records, had been granted special permission to collaborate with Gunna despite the restrictions of his probation.
This permission suggested that the two artists had remained on good terms, despite persistent rumors accusing Gunna of having “betrayed” YSL by accepting a plea deal in 2022.
Young Thug’s tweet reignited debates about loyalty within the YSL label and the consequences of plea deals in the RICO case. Some fans see this as confirmation of rumors that Gunna denounced his former collaborators.
Hip-hop figure DJ Akademiks even claimed that Young Thug would have warned other rappers, like Lil Baby, that Gunna was a “snitch”.
