Is Gunna A Crip Gang Member? YSL Co-Defendant Claims Yes

by

Gunna’s been enjoying life outside the walls of his cell since December 2022, but that doesn’t mean his name is completely removed from the YSL RICO trial. Though he hasn’t been in court watching Jeffrey Williams attempt to fight the slew of charges brought against him, the Atlanta-based creative has been making his support for Young Thug felt consistently during performances. Despite his solidarity, Gunna remains on the outs with several rappers, Lil Baby among them, who’ve accused him of “snitching” on the So Much Fun artist.

In order to come home from jail, the 30-year-old took what’s known as an Alford plea. Since then, he’s been mostly focused on his music with a Gift & a Curse putting him back on the map in 2023. Now, however, Gunna is facing allegations from another YSL co-defendant – Trontavious “Slug” Stephens – who’s been on the witness stand for a minute now. According to Thugger’s business partner, his “Hot” collaborator is one of the gang members who was a part of the Young Slime Life collective. Mostly Bloods are tied to the group, however, some Crips apparently were too.

Gunna Has Ties to Crips, Trontavious “Slug” Stephens Says in Court

“Is Gunna a Crip?” one prosecutor asked Slug during his time on the stand on Monday (January 22). As per HipHopDX, the latter simply responded, “Yeah.” In the past, the embattled lyricist was denied bond due to his alleged links to Atlanta’s Shady Park Crips. “[My client] is not involved in any of the so-called Shady Park Crips matters,” his attorney declared back in 2022.

While Gunna’s name is being brought up in the Georgia courtroom full of his old friends, the “fukumean” hitmaker’s been booked and busy overseas amid Paris Fashion Week. He’s always had a love for styling himself in designer drip, but thanks to his newfound confidence, the YSL star is building relationships with brands like never before. Check out Chris Brown’s reaction to his recent performance at the link below, and tap back in with HNHH later for more music/pop culture news updates.

Skip Bayless Questions If Ja Morant Is A Crip

by

Skip Bayless is one of the most famous men out there when it comes to the sports talk world. He currently hosts Undisputed with the likes of Shannon Sharpe, and although they sometimes argue, they remain great partners. With Skip hovering around the age of 70, there is no doubt he is a bit out of touch with certain aspects of culture. However, Shannon is always there to educate him and keep him on track a bit. Sometimes, this ignorance leads to some hilarious moments on the show. Today, that is exactly what happened as Bayless was tasked with talking about Ja Morant.

As many of you already know, Morant is suspended indefinitely from the Memphis Grizzlies. Overall, this is due to his behavior on Instagram Live, where he was brandishing a gun. Moreover, every single headline involving Morant as of late has been very concerning. From altercations with other teams to alleged instances of uttering threats, things are not looking good for Ja. On today’s episode of Undisputed, Bayless questioned whether or not Morant is part of the crips. This is because the young star has allegedly made crip signs in the past.

Skip Bayless Speaks

“What does that mean?” Skip asked. “Does that mean he wants to associate with the crips? Or did he get initiated by the crips? Or does he have dreams of being a crip? I don’t know.” On the surface, this clip was truly bizarre as Skip tried to earnestly discuss the crips’ potential influence on Ja Morant. At this point, there is no evidence to suggest that Morant is part of that gang, however, it did not stop Bayless from asking questions. As you can imagine, the internet was a bit baffled and slightly amused by it all.

At this point, the Ja Morant speculation has gotten a bit out of hand. He clearly needs some help right now, but that isn’t grounds for this kind of analysis and nitpicking. Hopefully, Morant is able to put all of this behind him and change for the better. Let us know what you thought of Bayless’ segment, in the comments down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the sports world.
