Young Thug's YSL RICO trial got started earlier this week. Since even before it got underway the trial has been making waves. A lot of that has come from disconnect between the judge and lawyers for both the defense and prosecution. The start of the trial was delayed by the prosecution failing to deliver all the text slides from their opening statement to the defense. The jury from the trial had to be dismissed while it was sorted out which delayed opening statements in the case.
Now, the trial is fully underway revelations are coming quickly. Earlier today, Thug's lawyer made the claim that he and YFN Lucci's beef only existed to help Lucci get clout and exposure. Now, he's made another even more surprising claim. Last year, Young Thug teamed up with Future and Gunna for the hit song "pushin P." The title became a popular meme and today in court his lawyer tried to explain what it means. He claims that the phrase means "Pushing Positivity" which many online found funny. Check out the video of his lawyer making the statement below.
