Young Thug has been having quite the week thusfar. Despite the legal troubles that he's facing, the rapper continues to push forward. Earlier in the summer, the rapper released his critically acclaimed mixtape BEAUTIFUL THUGGER GIRLS. The project spawned the Future assisted single "Relationships". The song blends both Young Thug and Future's brilliance together for a pop influenced banger. While that's been on everybody's playlist, Thug and Future release the accompanying visual for "Relationship."
Honing the 90's VHS aesthetic, Young Thug and Future drop the video for "Relationship." Thug and Future rent out a yacht for their latest video, packing it with a bunch of beautiful women dressed in bikinis and turning up. Thug pays homage to the classic "Girls Gone Wild" videos from the 90's with similar censor stickers used throughout the video. The video was directed by Young Thug as well. While it isn't as elaborate as the "Wyclef Jean" video, it keeps to the same spontaneity that Thug's been known for. Thug does a great job at bringing the energy in the song to life with this video.
Both Future and Young Thug have been spotted around with each other more frequently recently. Over time, they've developed a solid friendship with each other. Thug recently previewed a new collaboration while the two were in the studio together. There's no saying where that'll end up but it was definitely sounding good. The two prove to have great energy together, as seen in the video for "Relationship." Hopefully the day comes where we get the most auto-tuned crooning collaborative album from them. While that's just being hopeful, it seems like it's possible.
In other Thug related news, it turns out that he's may be facing two more felony charges from his recent arrest. The rapper posted bail this morning but is reportedly looking at charges from drug and gun possession.
