But humor quickly turns to cringe, as Thug’s verse is mixed poorly and ends up mimicking Drake to a tee.īut lapses are few and rare, as one would expect from an artist with a combined 29 albums, mixtapes, and EPs. “Parade on Cleveland” sounds out of place, opening the album with what should have been a throwaway R&B verse from Drake’s “AM/PM” series, followed by phone ringing - but it’s not one of Drake’s exes, rather the same automated voice that began Drakeo the Ruler & JoogSzn’s jail tape, “Thank You For Using GTL.” Just as Drakeo began his album with laughs and jokes, Young Thug does the same. Gunna to Be Released After Pleading Guilty to Racketeering and Gang Charges
Young Thug's Brother Negotiates Plea Deal in YSL Case Young Thug to Drop New Album 'Business Is Business' From Jail He’s rapping like his life depends on it. Despite its “Godfather”-ish title, the album reflects the divides within the YSL camp: BSlime, Lil Gotit and Yak Gotti are the only featured crew members, Gunna is nowhere to be seen, and Wheezy has three production credits on the album but none on a “Gift & a Curse.” Consequently, it’s missing the camaraderie that has been a hallmark of Thug’s career, from “Best Friend” to the YSL collaborative album, “Slime Language 2” - although it does feature guest verses from Travis Scott, Future, 21 Savage, Lil Uzi Vert and more. Still, “Business Is Business” is Young Thug’s strongest project since “So Much Fun.” Thugger has regained control of his voice, in all of its oscillating, squealing glory. Thug’s response: a surprise album, as he awaits jury selection, that doubles as a kind of opening statement, not for the “peers” to be selected by the court, but for the friends, fans and family rooting for him.Īrriving just a week after “a Gift & a Curse,” the new album from labelmate and former associate Gunna - who was also indicted but pleaded guilty to one count of racketeering and has since been freed - “Business Is Business” is Thug’s first solo release since 2021’s “Punk,” and since his incarceration. Thugger is one of the top rappers in the game, and yet he’s been sidelined by allegations from Georgia’s Fulton County that his Young Stoner Life label is actually a criminal gang.
#Lil tim out of jail trial
Young Thug - who has been awaiting trial in an Atlanta jail for over a year - may not belong in an orange jumpsuit, but he’ll probably reinvent the attire at some fashion show when he gets out.
