Boosie Badazz says Young Thug deserves loyalty from his co-defendants in the YSL case.

Boosie Badazz has been one of Young Thug’s most vocal supporters since his arrest last year. However, he’s become even more passionate about the YSL case after several members copped deals. In recent times, we’ve witnessed Gunna cop an Alford Plea, leading many to label him a rat. However, the prosecutors revealed that there could be nearly 300 witnesses in the case who will testify against Young Thug. At this point, it seems clear that some of those could be Thug’s co-defendants.

Last year, reports emerged that YSL Woody copped a deal and agreed to cooperate with authorities. However, no one knew exactly what he told prosecutors until a recently leaked video of him in the interrogation room. He told prosecutors more information than they even asked for, even mentioning rappers like 21 Savage. Overall, it seems like it’s going to be an uphill battle for Young Thug and his legal team, especially if those who claimed to be loyal to the rapper began to fold under pressure.

Boosie Badazz Calls Out YSL Members

Boosie Badazz’s recent interview with Vlad TV found him airing out his frustrations toward members of YSL who turned against Young Thug. He explained that many of them wouldn’t have had any fame or success if it wasn’t for Thugger sticking his neck out for them. “Half them n***as that told on Young Thugga, all done got they fame off Young Thug. Most of them met they baby mamas ‘cause of him. You wouldn’t even have a child, n***a, if you was on somewhere else,” Boosie said. “You be loyal to that man.”

Afterward, Boosie explained how prosecutors are treating the case like they’re going after a team before comparing Young Thug to Michael Jordan. “Who the fuck is Scottie Pippen when we talkin’ with the team? Gunna,” he said. “So if Scottie Pippen says it’s a gang… Michael Jordan say it’s not. What the fuck?!” Boosie added that they started to tackle those underneath Young Thug in order to secure a conviction. Check out the clip above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments.
