Rapper Young Thug, who was cleared of RICO charges and released from prison in the fall of 2024, is on an apology tour of sorts through the release of his new rap song, “Man I Miss my Dogs.”
Fans were shocked when, over the passed couple of weeks, telephone calls Young Thug made during the time he was incarcerated surfaced on the Internet. In a number of those calls, the rapper is heard being critical of other rappers and his girlfriend at the time Mariah the Scientist.
Since the calls at the heart of the matter went viral, the Cobb County jail system has stopped allowing access to Young Thug’s calls. However, the “Digits” rapper suspects someone “been had” them long before they leaked.
- On Gunna: Thug allegedly stated that Gunna’s plea deal was a betrayal and that he purchased fake streams to boost Gunna’s album sales, though he claimed Gunna was unaware of this. He also suggested that Gunna’s lawyer believed he would have been the first to be released due to a lack of evidence against him.
- On Gucci Mane: In one call, Young Thug claimed Gucci Mane “turned soft” and “started fing with that na” after his own stint in jail.
- On Other Artists: Thug called GloRilla “ugly AF,” a comment he later apologized for, and also made disparaging remarks about Future and Drake. He even ranted about a failed attempt to get a verse from Kendrick Lmar.
- On Personal Life: He had private conversations with a reported girlfriend and another woman, advising her to “move on” and “find love.”
The seven-minute track has the rapper apologizing to Mariah the Scientist, Drake, Lil Baby, Future, 21 Savage, and Gucci Mane, although sources allege that Mariah the Scientist insists that her relationship with Young Thug is over.
