Young Thug has commenced something of a public apology tour after a week of leaked prison calls from his time in Cobb County have casted him in an unflattering light.
On Thursday night (Sept. 11), Thug attempted to turn those fractures into mended bridges with the release of his seven-minute track “Man I Miss My Dogs.” The record plays like a confessional: raw, deliberate, and deeply personal. Over the course of the song, he issues apologies to Lil Baby, 21 Savage, Future, Mariah the Scientist, and most notably, Drake.
“Never diss you / Came to visit me at Cobb County like my kin do / F**k the jail call, you know the other calls we had / Trying to get you, Metro and Pluto on the same page,” Thug raps—acknowledging both the leaked words that damaged their bond and the private loyalty Drake once showed him.
Just hours after Thug posted the track and accompanying handwritten notes to Instagram, Drake quietly tapped “like” on the post. No caption, no comment, no statement. Just a small, digital nod. For fans watching the dynamic between the two unfold, the gesture was enough to be read as an acknowledgment, if not forgiveness.
The timing feels intentional. At the end of the “Man I Miss My Dogs” video, Thug revealed his upcoming album Uy Scuti will drop on Sept. 19—his first since walking out of prison last December. It’s a project he seems to be positioning not just as a musical comeback, but as a public reset.
And with Drake’s quiet co-sign, Thug’s apology may have found its most important audience.
