Thug is being hit with several charges for his involvement in YSL. Prosecutors claim that he is operating as one of the group’s leaders along with Gunna, and are using lyrics from their music to help back up their accusations.

The Jeffery rapper was originally brought in on charges of conspiracy to violate Georgia’s RICO Act and participation in a criminal street gang; however, after a police raid on his Atlanta home, Thug was slapped with the additional crimes of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute; possession of a Schedule III, IV, or V controlled substance with intent to distribute; possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony; and possession of a sawed-off shotgun, sawed-off rifle, machine gun, dangerous weapon, or silencer.

Lil Baby and Young Thug have collaborated on multiple occasions, with Thug even putting out a track titled, "Lil Baby," on his 2019 album, So Much Fun.
