Young Thug, known for his unique style and often playful approach to interviews, has once again sparked conversation. While walking the red carpet at the GQ Men of The Year Awards, he was asked a question that led to a rather surprising, yet characteristically Thugger, response.
A Surprising ‘Gay Anthem’
Throughout his career, Young Thug’s sexuality has been a frequent topic of discussion, often fueled by his fashion choices, like wearing a dress on his 2016 mixtape cover for ‘JEFFERY.’ While he has consistently denied any same-sex attraction, stating clearly in September, “I’m straight women. Ain’t nothing going down with no man,” he decided to have some fun with the persistent rumors.
When asked by Ludwig Hurtado of Them Magazine for his “gay anthem of the moment,” Thugger paused, then hilariously declared, “Ninjas.” He elaborated, “Maybe ‘Ninjas.’ It’s called ‘Ninjas,’ and it’s by this gay rapper named Young Thug.”
The Song in Question
The song he’s referring to is “Ninja,” the bold opener from his 2023 album ‘UY SCUTI.’ The track is known for its provocative lyrics and, as Thugger pointed out, his repeated use of the hard “R” in the final 30 seconds, which has certainly raised eyebrows and fueled debate.
Reactions Online
His response quickly went viral, with many users on platforms like TikTok expressing surprise and amusement. Comments ranged from “girl did you just get Young Thug to finally come out?!?!?” to “Hold on” accompanied by reaction memes. Some users recognized the layers of trolling involved, noting Thug’s penchant for keeping people guessing.
A Master of Trolling?
This isn’t the first time Young Thug has played with public perception. His relationship status with R&B singer Mariah the Scientist has been a source of speculation, with Thugger making conflicting statements about their relationship on streams. This history suggests that his “gay anthem” comment might be another instance of his masterful trolling, designed to keep fans engaged and talking.
Do you think Young Thug was serious about “Ninja” being his gay anthem, or is it just another one of his signature trolls? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
