Young Thug beat his YSL Rico case months ago, and now, he is preparing his first comeback album. UY SCUTI does not have a release date, although we should be getting it very soon. Having said that, Thugger has been going viral as of late thanks to his comments about snitches.
"If u a rapper and u a rat, u gotta just go gospel twin," the artist tweeted on Monday. Of course, many fans immediately took this as a shot at Gunna. While some certainly agreed with the sentiment, others were not so enthusiastic about it.
For instance, DJ Akademiks leveled a response to Young Thug on social media. "Somebody gotta tell Young Thug that he's the last rapper on earth who cares who SNITCHING," Akademiks wrote. "Lowkey half these n***** telling and the ones telling make the best music. Fans don't give af."
Young Thug saw these comments and made it a point to respond. "That's actually crazy but true, except the making the best music part," he wrote.
At the end of the day, it is easy to see why Thugger would have such strong feelings towards snitching. The YSL Rico case could have put him in prison for the rest of his life. However, the prosecution had a messy case, and he was able to get away with 15 years of probation.
During the trial, there were all sorts of rumors about Gunna's role in all of this and whether or not he would be Thug's downfall. In the end, the Gunna snitching allegations are just that, allegations. No one truly knows exactly what went down there.
Having said that, fans are very excited about Thug's return to music. His new album promises to boast a star-studded cast, and we're sure the artist is just excited to show people what he's capable of. Rap fans have been wanting this project for years.
Tom Morello has called off two scheduled performances as he focuses on supporting his mother following her recent hospital stay.
In a message shared on Instagram on Thursday, the Rage Against the Machine guitarist revealed that he was flying back to the United States to be with his 102 year old mother, Mary Morello, and help care for her.
"Dear friends, fans and comrades, my dear mom, Mary Morello is back in the hospital and I'm headed home to help look after her," he wrote. "Rocking the UK & Europe with you all this summer has been incredible, and I can't wait to be back with you and continue this movement that we started. With much love, unity and power."
The guitarist had been scheduled to perform at the Tons Of Rock Festival in Oslo, Norway, along with the BBK Music Legends Festival in Bilbao, Spain this weekend.
Earlier this month, Morello also cancelled planned appearances in London and Paris, with ticket holders offered refunds through their original point of purchase. However, he still made it to the Pinkpop festival in the Netherlands.
"I am sorry I had to miss a few shows due to my mom's health," the 62 year old noted. "The incredibly resilient, indefatigable Mary Morello at 102 is now feeling somewhat better and has ordered me back into the fray, charging me with rocking you and fighting fascism six strings at a time."
At this point, Morello has not announced when he expects to return to the stage.
Mary Morello, the musician's mother, built a career as a teacher and activist. She also helped establish the anti censorship organization Parents for Rock and Rap during the late 1980s.
