Young Thug fans on social media have taken note that the rapper is credited as a mixing engineer on Lil Baby's new album, Wham. It isn't his only contribution to the project either. He pops up as a guest feature on the track, "Dum, Dumb, and Dumber," alongside his other long-time collaborator, Future. The song marks Young Thug's first release since getting out of jail in October 2024.
Despite Thug's work on the project, fans on social media have been highly critical of the effort. "The album is disappointing considering he is a mainstream rapper with access to various producers, engineers and artist," one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter) in response to ThuggerDaily. Another added: "I promise you if thug really did serious mixing this album wouldn’t sound this bad. He probably mixed the song he was on only because that’s the only song mixed perfectly."

Thug got out of jail in October after accepting a plea deal in the historically lengthy YSL RICO trial. In doing so, he agreed to spend the next 15 years on probation, to not go to the Metro Atlanta area for 10 years, and to not make gang-related music, among several other restrictions. Following his plea, the rest of the case eventually wrapped up in December with mostly not-guilty verdicts.
