There doesn’t appear to be a YSL family reunion on the horizon following Young Thug’s release from jail. Thugger seemingly sniped at Gunna in a tweet on Saturday (Nov. 9) before deleting the evidence from X, but the damage was done as the message spread like wildfire on social media.
“Gunna stop acting like we friends on the internet, I don’t know you my guy,” he cryptically penned. Minutes later, the tweet was gone, but not before it was captured:
There’s been plenty of speculation from fans regarding the status of Thug and Gunna’s relationship. While Gunna is still signed to YSL Records, he’s largely avoided speaking out about how things are between him and Thugger. “It’s the same,” Gunna vaguely told XXL earlier this year. “It’s love, always. Our relationship is our relationship.”
Gunna and Thug were both arrested as part of the sprawling 56-count indictment in May 2022 for the YSL RICO case. Gunna and his attorney Steve Sadow reached an Alford plea to secure his release in December 2022, while Thug remained behind bars until reaching his own plea deal Oct. 31.
Sadow downplayed snitching rumors that came with Gunna’s Alford plea deal. “Gunna did not snitch to get out of jail,” Sadow said on social media at the time. “He has said nothing and is not cooperating. His plea statement cannot be used in court against any other defendant. So please stop spreading lies.”
Thugger was released from jail on Halloween after reaching a plea. Judge Paige Reese Whitaker gave him a sentence of 15 years probation, which allowed Thug to walk free following the hearing.
Gunna’s brother DP hopped into The Shade Room‘s comment section of a post about Thug’s tweet, where it seems there’s no love lost between the two artists. “Trust and believe the feeling is mutual,” he wrote.
Thug hasn’t clarified the deleted tweet, but his first music move looks to be uniting with Lil Baby, who has been outspoken in distancing himself from Gunna since his former frequent collaborator’s release.
“Wham let’s drop one on these rats peter,” Thug tweeted. Billboards with the phrase “Whatever Wham Says Goes” have also popped up across Los Angeles.
