Young Thug is speaking out again as more audio from his jail time has surfaced, sparking intense backlash. The Atlanta rapper took to X (formerly Twitter) to address the criticism, writing, “Bashing me only goin f–k that rap community up more, I’m the blue to this fake a– game.”
The ‘Snitching’ Controversy
Thug’s credibility has been under fire since a clip from a police interrogation allegedly showed him implicating Pee Wee Roscoe. The newly leaked jail calls, recorded between May 2022 and October 2024, have only intensified the scrutiny.
In one recording, Thug reportedly criticizes Gunna’s decision to accept an Alford plea, calling it disloyal. He also claims to have invested $50,000 in artificial streams to boost Gunna’s album sales. This suggests a deep rift between the former collaborators.
Comparisons and Criticisms
Another leaked call features Thugger comparing Drake and Kendrick Lamar. He appears to praise Drake for his support of other artists while slamming K.Dot for reportedly refusing a collaboration with him. This commentary adds another layer to the ongoing discussions about artist relationships in the industry.
Fans haven’t been shy about voicing their opinions in the comments. Many feel the shoe is now on the other foot for Thug, with one follower writing, “But you was bashing Gunna? You just don’t like that the shoe is on your foot now.” Another commenter directly addressed his claim of being the “blue” of the game, stating, “You f–ked the rap community up with fake sales.”
The Impact on the Rap Community
These leaked calls and the subsequent public reactions highlight the complex dynamics within the hip-hop world. Accusations of snitching and criticisms of business practices continue to fuel debate, impacting how artists are perceived by their peers and fans alike.
