Metro Boomin Updates Fans On Young Thug

Metro Boomin just took to Instagram to update fans on Young Thug, who’s currently behind bars awaiting trial for RICO charges against him and the YSL crew. Moreover, the process in this case proved to be painstaking, arduous, and unpredictable in the months since the collective’s May 2022 arrest. Still, many in the music industry, especially close collaborators, have shown Thug in particular a lot of support and well-wishes. As such, some of his closest friends like producer Metro Boomin sometimes get the chance to speak to Thug. Now, Metro provided fans with some light at the end of the tunnel.

“Talked to [spider emoji] today and just know when he touchdown the whole [earth emoji] gon feel it [bicep flex emoji],” he wrote. Furthermore, the producer spoke on their consistent communication on DJ Drama’s The Streetz Iz Watching podcast. However, this update also comes after the case’s jury selection process suffered multiple delays. Between everything going on in the trial, this seems to be one of the main obstacles the case’s progress faces. Another important element to consider is information leaks and further wrongdoing from the YSL camp as they await their fate.

Metro Boomin Gives Update On Young Thug

Regardless, the iconic producer believes that his good spirits are holding him together right now. “I be talking to him, he’s blessed man,” the HEROES & VILLAINS architect explained. “Anybody know Slime know he got a heart of gold but he got the heart of a warrior at the same time so like, he got his head up. And I pray for him every single day, even since everything first happened, I pray for him every single day.

“The day he got locked up he was supposed to be in the ‘Superhero’ video,” Metro continued. “He had a whole scene set up where he was gonna say the tag and do some other shit. I remember talking to him on the FaceTime, he was like, ‘yeah I’m finna pull up.’” Hopefully Thug’s spirits stay high as the media world bites their nails ahead of his future. In fact, Thugger’s sister also posted a picture of a call with him. In the snapshot, which you can peep below, he flexes his muscles and puts on a big smile. Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest from Metro Boomin and more updates on the YSL case and Young Thug.

Birdman Updates Fans On B.G. Prison Release: He’ll “Be Home In A Minute”

Birdman just provided an update on when Hot Boys member B.G. will see his prison release. Moreover, this is the latest in a long string of legal struggles behind bars for the rapper. Not only have his requests faced denials multiple times, but pressure from other rappers and pop culture figures doesn’t seem to make a dent. Still, at least there are people like the Cash Money boss in his corner to keep fans posted on his status. Most recently, the Atlanta kingpin took to Instafgram to share a picture of B.G. and an update.

“Be home in a minute,” Birdman wrote in his caption, corresponding to a simple picture of the rapper. “Heart of tha streets @new_bghollyhood #CCRG #Cashmoneymillionaire @cashmoneyofficial.” For those unaware, B.G. currently serves a 14-year prison sentence set for its end in April of 2024. Of course, this also isn’t the first time that Birdman in particular hinted at his freedom. Last year, a video went around on social media showing Bird paying a visit to him at the Federal Correctional Institution in Herlong, California.

Birdman Gives Update On B.G.’s Prison Release

Unfortunately, all of the rapper’s petitions for early release were denied by court and law enforcement authorities. While Birdman and other colleagues continued to claim and hint at his prompt exit, it seems nothing could shift the court. At the tail end of September last year, a U.S. District Judge rejected a motion to commute his sentence. Curiously, said request didn’t come from B.G., but rather another federal prisoner. However, further investigation and deliberation revealed that the letter was just meant to advocate for B.G. after his dissatisfaction with how his attorney handled a previous motion for compassionate release.

Still, many in the hip-hop community, especially those close to Cash Money, haven’t forgotten about B.G. For example, Gucci Mane said late last year that he’s giving $1 million to the incarcerated rapper once he gets out of jail. Even though these court struggles and failed requests are disheartening, hopefully he receives a warm welcome upon his release. Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest updates on B.G. and Birdman.
