The Atlanta rap scene has been in shambles over the past few days. And as usual, YSL is at the center of it all.
Last week, explosive audio leaked. Of an interrogation involving YSL head honcho Young Thug. In the leaked audio, he appears to implicate YSL affiliate PeeWee Roscoe. In a 2015 incident in Atlanta that ended with rap star Lil Wayne’s tour bus being shot at.
50 Cent Chimes in on YSL Snitching Scandal
In the wake of all of this, rap star and film producer 50 Cent decided to chime in on social media. He posted video of a man elusively dancing in the rain. While encouraging all of his followers to keep their heads on a swivel and move accordingly in terms of who they trust.
“This is how you gotta move in the streets now because these [ninja emoji] telling. BE CAREFUL NOW!” he wrote in an August 31 Instagram post.
Of course, fans in the comments section had a lot to say.
“They’ve been telling since telling been telling,” one fan wrote.
“This generation is really spooky. Telling and shooting,” another person added.
“Ratatouilles everywhere nowadays,” a third user said.
One of the reasons that Young Thug has been the subject of heavy backlash is because of his behaviour toward his former YSL labelmate, Gunna. There had been reported friction between the two after Gunna accepted an Alford Plea after being swept up in the initial indictment.
The issues between the two rap stars were confirmed on a leaked prison call between Young Thug and 21 Savage, where he notes that it was Gunna’s Alford plea that made the case into a RICO trial.
“This is what he did. He gave the jurors the agreement that it’s a gang,” Young Thug says in the leaked phone call. “He said YSL is a gang and that he knows people in this trial who committed crimes in furtherance of the gang. That’s a RICO. So if a n***a gets found on a RICO, that means you really got a n***a life took n***a”
Despite being the subject of heavy criticism from Young Thug and several of his affiliates, Gunna has yet to respond to any of them.
