Young Thug Targets ‘Rat’ Rappers Amid Rift With Gunna

Young Thug has publicly criticized rappers who cooperate with law enforcement, particularly targeting Gunna, his former collaborator and labelmate, amid ongoing speculation about a rift between them. Thug's disapproval is evident in his social media posts, including a tweet advising that rappers who are 'rats' should switch to gospel music, and in his song "Money on Money," which many interpret as a diss aimed at Gunna. Despite Gunna accepting an Alford plea in the YSL RICO case and being released from jail, both he and his legal team deny he cooperated or provided information against Thug. The tension between the two has been marked by public distancing, such as Gunna covering his YSL tattoo and Thug deleting posts and giving lukewarm responses about their relationship. Young Thug's stance has also extended to comments about other artists, such as Kid Cudi, whom he called a 'rat' after testifying in a high-profile trial. These actions have sparked debate among fans and within the hip-hop community regarding loyalty and the consequences of cooperating with authorities.
