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

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"
― rob, Monday, 20 January 2014 21:53 (ten years ago) link
"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.
― tpp, Monday, 20 January 2014 21:57 (ten years ago) link
ok just post it
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Monday, 20 January 2014 21:57 (ten years ago) link
"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
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Monday, 20 January 2014 21:58 (ten years ago) link
would be cool yeah but idk if there is anything to it.
― tpp, Monday, 20 January 2014 22:03 (ten years ago) link
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.
― Evan R, Monday, 20 January 2014 22:05 (ten years ago) link
time for some research...
*googles 'bisexual young thug'*
― tpp, Monday, 20 January 2014 22:09 (ten years ago) link
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.
― Frederik B, Monday, 20 January 2014 22:18 (ten years ago) link
He also has like three lines about being a martian. If Lil Wayne's said it, he's probably said it, too.

he def says no homo on that tape
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Monday, 20 January 2014 22:35 (ten years ago) link
Future signed him, right?
― longneck, Monday, 20 January 2014 22:44 (ten years ago) link
there's a bunch of talk about him maybe going to Freebandz but it seems unconfirmed atm
― Algerian Horsebeater (some dude), Monday, 20 January 2014 22:47 (ten years ago) link
This Bloody Jay mixtape is rough. The Freebandz era begins inauspiciously.
― Evan R, Wednesday, 22 January 2014 04:58 (ten years ago) link
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
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 22 January 2014 05:17 (ten years ago) link
the tape is really good imo (exept the sound quality)
― sisilafami, Wednesday, 22 January 2014 13:05 (ten years ago) link
yeah it's sounding good to me
but then i'm feeling more positively towards weaker thugger joints now that he's taking off
― rap steve gadd (D-40), Wednesday, 22 January 2014 14:06 (ten years ago) link
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
― Evan R, Wednesday, 22 January 2014 14:48 (ten years ago) link
I like what Ive heard so far.

his lyrics on this song are bonkers

i got a black gun with a red beama red car, it drip clean
the best thing about Black Portland is that it's only 11 tracks long

@YoungThugWorld 12hOk 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.
― Evan R, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 17:12 (ten years ago) link
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.
― Evan R, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 17:14 (ten years ago) link
ack, Danny Glover. Yuck, sorry.
― Evan R, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 17:16 (ten years ago) link
lol
― rob, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 17:20 (ten years ago) link
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

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

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.)
― Evan R, Thursday, 6 February 2014 01:23 (ten years ago) link
haha
i'm annoyed that the whole premise of the song is he has 3 girls when Jack Tripper had 2 girls, though
― scott c-word (some dude), Thursday, 6 February 2014 01:25 (ten years ago) link
maybe Young Thug has only seen season 5
― rob, Thursday, 6 February 2014 03:25 (ten years ago) link
The season where both Terri and Cindy Snow filled in for Suzanne Somers' character? Amazing.
― Evan R, Thursday, 6 February 2014 03:48 (ten years ago) link
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

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.

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.

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