Young Thug thread

which didn't seem all that far fetched after the Vine of him geeking out to the track went viral. Track also has big co-signs from Kanye West and Jay-Z, so that's some pretty substantial support

i do suspect this will end up being an ilx easter island style tribute to a forgotten rapper though

lol i was basically giving up on him right when he finally started to get radio traction

what a long strange run its been

i dont know where you guys are that regional hits dont get played on radio without drake verses

i mean, unless youre in new york, like me

i was being sarcastic

hadn't heard this before...wow

has he put anything out since 1017 thug?

restraint or oversight on aero not quoting the lines after "lean/lean/lean/etc" upthread? how could you resist "500 horses inside my machine/ 500 DNAs in my ding ding"

"Stoner," "Danny Glover" are the big singles

"Some More" http://www.trillhd.com/video/5059/young-thug-some-more
"No Fuck" today http://www.complex.com/music/2014/01/young-thug-bloody-jay-no-fuck

there was a rumour abt this guy floating around on twitter that is, um, interesting to google.

ok just post it

"stoner" & "danny glover" are good tracks & obv i'm glad young thug is becoming a thing but they're still outside of his, like, 10 best songs imo

is young thug bisexual? that would be cool

would be cool yeah but idk if there is anything to it.

Nothing to hang a rumor on, but he had a really chipper song on ICFN3 (I think, or maybe 2) that was something like (very loosely paraphrasing here) "oh my God she wanna fuck me... and he do to." There's no Pharcyde-y "eeeewwwww" in his voice when he delivers the line, or any whiff of "no homo." He sounds kind of excited about the proposition. So at the very least (and probably only the very least) he's not very hung up on how people perceive his sexuality.

time for some research...

*googles 'bisexual young thug'*

It would be really cool, but doesn't he have a line like 'no homo / two times: no homo' on 1017 Thug? I remember because I was annoyed.

He also has like three lines about being a martian. If Lil Wayne's said it, he's probably said it, too.

loooool tpp

oooh, I just got it. lol.

he def says no homo on that tape

Future signed him, right?

there's a bunch of talk about him maybe going to Freebandz but it seems unconfirmed atm

This Bloody Jay mixtape is rough. The Freebandz era begins inauspiciously.

of the half dozen or so tracks that leaked i didn't think any of them sounded spectacular but i gotta listen to the tape

the tape is really good imo (exept the sound quality)

yeah it's sounding good to me

but then i'm feeling more positively towards weaker thugger joints now that he's taking off

The mix to me is code for "don't take this too seriously because we clearly didn't." But if I wasn't sold on Bloody Jay before I'm definitely not now

I like what Ive heard so far.

"But if I wasn't sold on Bloody Jay before I'm definitely not now"

me too

"4 eva bloody" is amazing

his lyrics on this song are bonkers

i got a black gun with a red beam
a red car, it drip clean

the best thing about Black Portland is that it's only 11 tracks long

@YoungThugWorld 12h
Ok ok who ready for my tape?? If you ready the title and the date , tell everybody to RT this now...

Glad he has a real project in the pipeline. Maybe this one will even be mastered.

Also hoping the overzealous press didn't blow their Young Thug coverage on Black Portland. Seems like there was such a rush to jump on this dude's train that pubs didn't care they were slathering inordinate attention on an undistinguished, inconsequential tape. They just needed to make up for not covering "Donald Glover" the first time around.

ack, Danny Glover. Yuck, sorry.

lol

was gonna say, it feels like Donald Glover has gotten his fair share of coverage, ha

Anybody who knocked Drake for flow jacking on the "Versace" remix has ceded their right to breathlessly praise Nicki Minaj's "Danny Glover" remix

:D

The world didn't need another "call me [name of celebrity or pop culture character]" song, but this one is good. Best Lex Luger track I've heard in a while

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kjoEThjVFY

yeah good track

Not sure how deliberate it was, but a funny, weirdly hyper guy who convinces uptight people he's gay so he can have lots of sex is an understandable character for Young Thug to relate to. (Plus Three's Company is just an underrated show in general.)

haha

i'm annoyed that the whole premise of the song is he has 3 girls when Jack Tripper had 2 girls, though

maybe Young Thug has only seen season 5

The season where both Terri and Cindy Snow filled in for Suzanne Somers' character? Amazing.

Jack usually had a woman in his apartment in addition to his roommates, so that would make three. But I dunno; I like that I can't make the logic square. Also I like that this track essentially makes PeeWee Longway Larry, the show's secret-best character

Young Thugga Mane La Flare drops April 1. First song is really good; solid verses from both Gucci and Thug

ammmmped

tru

from what i read of the indictment, the song lyrics and photos with gang signs are mostly used as evidence that ysl was operating "as a gang," which justified the RICO charges. they seem to have actual evidence of him doing things like giving permission to people to murder yfn lucci.

i have no idea how this will play out and it is very possible this is a case of an overzealous prosecutor. it does seem insane to me that someone like thug, an icon, would still be wrapped up in this type of crime.

Big NYT piece today from Joe Coscarelli and Richard Fausset on the thug trial

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/13/arts/music/young-thug-ysl-trial.html?smid=url-share

seems..not good

BREAKING: YSL attorney Anastasios Manettas arrested and led away in handcuffs before start of today’s hearing. Still working to determine why he was arrested. #ysl @wsbtv

— Michael Seiden (@SeidenWSBTV) April 20, 2023

sounds like a bunch of petty BS on the cops behalf tbh

Anastassios Manettas, an attorney on the YSL trial, was just arrested for having his prescription drugs in his bag at a search at court.

— George Chidi (find me on Notes) (@neonflag) April 20, 2023

When he tried to toss his phone to another attorney so they wouldn't be able to search it, he missed and hit a deputy, so they're also charging him with assaulting an officer.

— George Chidi (find me on Notes) (@neonflag) April 20, 2023

love how an errant bump from a tossed phone becomes "assault" when, and only when, the bumpee is a cop.

sounds like the attorney is a clown frankly

Yeah, the quotes from his counsel in the rolling stone article linked under that second tweet definitely makes them look pretty amateurish and dumb.

new album is mostly wallpaper, but there are a couple vintage cuts, including this one:
