Young Thug Interrogation Audio: Detectives Ask If Lil Wayne, Birdman, And Thugger Are Bloods

We knew Young Thug’s YSL RICO case would be a slow-moving process, but we didn’t think it’d be nearly a year and a half into his arrest before his trial began. After months of searching for the perfect jury candidates and watching the number of co-defendants dwindle, it’s nearly time to begin the next steps in the court process. While we eagerly wait for that, @ThuggerDaily and @HipHopLivesNATL on Twitter shared a newly leaked video from the Atlanta-based artist’s interrogation with police, which is two hours long and includes some seriously laughable moments.

Among clips already going viral is a moment between Jeffrey Williams and a detective asking him about gang violence mentioned throughout his lyrics. “Y’all are bloods, right?” he asks in a casual manner. “Lil Wayne, you, and Birdman?” After a moment of silence, the multi-talent responds in confusion, “A blood???” as if he couldn’t understand the connection between him and the notorious gang. “That’s what you say on the song,” the investigator reminds Thugger.

Young Thug Laughs Off Questions About Being in a Gang

Of course, song lyrics being evidence is one of the most controversial aspects of this trial. After letting out a laugh, Williams told the authorities, “Man, that is entertainment main!” Seeing as we haven’t heard much from the “Oh U Went” artist directly all year, hearing his voice (especially in such good spirits) is refreshing. As the trial finally moves forward it won’t be shocking if more leaks come out. We’ll be sure to keep you posted on any that surface.

According to Mariah the Scientist, Young Thug’s got a pretty major incentive waiting on the other side of his time behind bars. The R&B singer says she and her man absolutely love discussing their plans to exchange vows once he (hopefully) beats his YSL RICO charges.

Druski Breaks Silence After Chain Snatching Incident: “I Handled Mines” Amidst Birdman Feud

In a dramatic turn of events over the weekend, social media sensation Druski found himself at the center of controversy as Birdman’s goons allegedly snatched his chain in a recording studio. However, the incident escalated when Birdman proudly displayed Druski’s chain on Instagram, igniting a publicized feud between the two. Taking matters into his own hands, Druski responded to the unfolding saga by sharing TMZ’s coverage on Instagram, casting doubt on the reported angles of the incident. Moreover, in a defiant tone, Druski asserted, “Of course, TMZ wouldn’t show all the camera angles… I HANDLED MINES 💯 #WasRunningToTheTrunk #DatGetbackAMuhf***a.” In addition, he further elaborated in the comments, emphasizing, “THEY AIN’T GONNA SHOW WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE THAT.”

Furthermore, the roots of this feud trace back to Druski’s creation of his fake record label “Coulda Been Records.” It was a move that sparked tensions with Birdman. Fans and supporters alike thought that Druski’s label was a mockery of Birdman’s iconic Cash Money Records emblem. However, it set off a chain reaction that culminated in Birdman publicly calling out the social media personality. Birdman even told Druski to “back down” and “stop playing with me.”

Moreover, in recent news, Druski also fired shots at Drake in the wake of his latest album drop, For All The Dogs. He playfully accused the artist of borrowing from his own material. The comedian took to Instagram to share his trolling antics, posting a video where he sits nonchalantly as a friend plays Drake’s “Daylight.” Druski, unimpressed, promptly demands his own track be played, suggesting a striking resemblance that raised eyebrows. Birdman chimed in to defend Drake, and sent a little warning. “Bro you still playin with a real gangsta SMH.” Drake himself didn’t stay silent, issuing a warning that suggested consequences for Druski’s playful banter. Drake said, “Stunna bout to have you come up missing on Gladys.

Furthermore, it seems as though the brewing feud between Druski and Birdman took a physical turn in the studio, leading to the chain-snatching incident that has since captivated social media platforms. As the narrative unfolds, fans have been left wondering about the untold chapters of this feud. Moreover, Druski’s cryptic hints suggest that there may be more to the story than meets the eye. However, with tensions escalating both online and offline, the Birdman-Druski saga is proving to be a headline-grabbing spectacle, leaving the hip-hop community on the edge of their seats, eagerly awaiting the next chapter in this unfolding drama. Some fans think it might be a drawn out skit. What are your thoughts?

Gillie Da King heard the words from Birdman and had some in return.

“I ain’t never made a dollar off Gillie when he be runnin’ around with all that cappin,” Birdman said. “Nigga, I ain’t never made no money off you. Stop all that cap-ass talkin’, nigga. You not like that.”

He added, “And he for sure ain’t never wrote one rhyme for Moolah.”

Gillie responded simply: “25 yrs later [laughing emoji].

In a lengthier response, Gillie questioned why Bidman even talked about him, calling him a “coward.”

“My whole thing is, why Birdman wait so long to say something?” Gillie said. “I can’t even respond when you say something 25 years later. What we talking about, man? You only responding because you don’t hear the roar of the crowd no more.”

He added, “I’m bigger than Baby. Ain’t that crazy? I’m bigger than that n-gga right now.”

Taking it to another level, Gillie got personal: “It took you 25 years to get some heart to say, ‘I ain’t like that.’ Fucking coward. You on Clubhouse at 50 talking shit. Shut your bitch ass up, boy.”

Gillie Da Kid Reacts To Birdman’s Clubhouse Comments: “I’m Bigger Than That Ni**a Right Now”

For some listeners, Birdman’s recent Clubhouse conversation with Wack 100 and other industry executives gave an insightful look at what’s happening in the industry at this time. Others, however, like Gille Da Kid, weren’t so impressed with what the Cash Money Records CEO had to say about him. If you didn’t tune in, Birdman spoke candidly about what transpired between him and the podcaster that led to their falling out, though he said he has no “ill feelings” toward Gillie. Despite the mostly positive message, the Million Dollaz Worth of Game host wasn’t having it.

“I’m bigger than Baby. Ain’t that [wild]?” the Philadelphia native said on Instagram Live earlier this week. “I’m bigger than that ni**a right now. I generate more money than that ni**a right now. I don’t wanna hear this s**t. Motherf**kers counting me out and I’m f**king bigger than you,” Gillie ranted, obviously in his feelings over what Birdman had to say about their past. “Shut up. Nobody give a f**k about you,” he publicly declared.

Later on during the same stream, Gillie couldn’t help but point out that the Louisana native kept quiet on the matter for an awful long time. “Birdman waited so long to say something man, I can’t even respond when you say something 25 years later,” he called out his former mentor. “You only respond because you don’t hear the roar of the crowd no more… I done called you a b**ch a** ni**a for 25 years. 25 years later you respond… I see the way you treated a real ni**a, rest in peace Killer Stone. You could’ve never treated me like that though. Talkin, ‘I ain’t like what.’ Why it took you 25 years to say that though?” he added with a laugh.

Besides addressing his fallout with Gillie Da Kid on Clubhouse, Birdman was also asked about his relationship with Rick Ross. Though the former played a pivotal role in Rozay’s initial come-up, they’re allegedly no longer in contact.

Azealia Banks Has Words for Drake and Birdman After They Came for Joe Budden

Azealia Banks Cancels Album Following 'Wild n Out' Taping

Azealia Banks has seen all the smoke sent Joe Budden‘s way from Drake and Birdman and has some words to say. Hitting Instagram, Banks told Drake what is not Hip-Hop.

Does Drake know his nose job and liposuction is not hip hop?
Does Drake know that no one who actually understands hip hop — a culture born from oppressed, don’t reeeeeeeallly care about his soft-toothed colonized confused mixed-race facsimile attempts to exhibit the true authenticity of an actual MC? Does Drake know his desperate attempts to gangsterize Canadian “street life” is an all-encompassing failure in and of itself?

– Azealia Banks

She then turned her attention to Birdman:

Also, can hip hop get ANYMORE TRASHY? Does Birdman know how low IQ, tacky, and how much of a fucking loser he looks threatening Joe Budden via the internet? Like… You can get arrested for that, Birdman.

– Azealia Banks

You can see it from Banks below and read more about the threats to Joe Budden here.

Birdman & Rick Ross Have No Relationship, Former Confirms There’s No Drama Between Them

Hip-hop is a huge industry, and it’s only getting bigger. Even with the recent efforts to make peace within it, it’s impossible for everyone to be friends. Thankfully, some creatives are mature enough to know that this means they don’t have to beef, like Birdman and Rick Ross. The former was invited to speak on Clubhouse by Wack 100 this past weekend. He answered questions about his work with other artists, among other things. At one point, the Louisana native was asked if he and Rozay have anything in the works, to which he gave a commendable answer.

“I can definitely say that I seen that Rick Ross is one of the guys you helped build early on,” a No Jumper editor told Birdman during their Q&A. “You showed him the ropes. What’s your relationship now, and can we see y’all doing anything in the future?” The Cash Money Records founder replied, “Hmm, I don’t know. We don’t have a relationship right now. I don’t have no shade with Ross, he doing what he doing. I would never disrespect him.”

Bird added that he’s not the type to “talk down on no man.” Even if the Biggest Boss and him never reconnect, he wishes the best for his old collaborator and hopes to see him continue to thrive. “I know how hard it is for any ni**a to win in this business,” the “Money to Blow” artist declared. “I don’t give a f**k! It’s hard for us, it’s very hard for us. For us to be successful, we got to do what we got to do. It’s a challenge, it’s a fight. We got to be able to fight. I like to fight till I die, I’m built on that structure, but I will never speak ill on no man.”

Besides his relationship (or lack thereof) with Rick Ross, Birdman got to talking about plenty of interesting topics on Clubhouse. At one point, the 54-year-old said that Bad Bunny is a signee of Drake’s OVO label, raising some eyebrows among fans.

Birdman Claims Drake Signed Bad Bunny To OVO Since “Day One”

Drake continues to be the talk of the town after his latest album For All The Dogs. The record has been hotly debated by listeners and other celebrities in social media circles. One of those is Joe Budden and that is a whole other subplot around the LP’s release. Now, we have another one surrounding Drake. However, this one includes Bad Bunny and Birdman. How did this all happen? Well, let us run down the details and background for you. As for some basic information, Bad Bunny made an appearance on For All The Dogs, teaming up with Drizzy for “Gently.”

On top of that collaboration, they also brought the Latin summer vibes to “MIA,” which came out back in 2018. That song and this latest one are a combination of Drake’s label OVO, and Bunny’s, Rimas Entertainment. However, Birdman firmly believes that Bunny has been with The Boy since the beginning. The Cash Money label leader chopped it up with Wack 100 about all sorts of things, one of which being Bunny and Drake’s relationship.

Throughout the clip provided by No Jumper, Birdman continues to claim that the Latin rapper and singer signed with OVO at the start of his career. “Bad Bunny already signed to Drake,” he says. “Y’all just don’t know it.” This would be a true shock if this rings true. But, as of now, he is official with Rimas, separate from Drake, and neither has came out publicly to confirm Birdman’s statement.

What are your initial thoughts on Birdman saying Bad Bunny has been signed under Drake’s OVO label since his career began? Why do you believe he is saying this? Are Drake and Bad Bunny one of the best duos in modern rap right now? We want to hear what you have to say about all of this.
