A$AP Rocky & Young Thug Have Collab Album on The Way

Following the news, fans on social media chimed in with mixed reactions.
“If I’m Thug, I’d not accept the collab. Where was he when Jefferey was locked up behind bars?” one fan said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“[ASAP] has been teasing his own album for a decade. Can he focus on that first?” another fan added.
“That dude is a junkie man this s**t not happening,” another person added.
Thug was featured on Lil Baby’s Dum, Dumb, and Dumber and recently released a new single titled Money on Money, which features Future. But aside from that, Thug has remained relatively mum on the music front since his release from prison in October 2024.
Thug was the main subject of the YSL Rico Trial and was facing life in prison. He wasn’t found innocent. But the 15 years of probation he received was a slap on the wrist considering the 40 years he was facing.
However, despite being found guilty on paper, Thug continues to maintain his innocence. And is happy that he gets the opportunity to “keep fighting.”
“Just pleading to something you know that you didn’t do is crazy,” he said. “But you get a chance to keep fighting. [You can] worry about the jury’s fate, or you [can] just go ahead now and go home. It’s like s—t, go home.”
