Young Thug’s Brother Erupts On YSL Mondo For Doing Interviews Amid RICO Case

by

Unfortunately, Young Thug may be in court for a lot longer. It seems that every YSL defendant is doing something that could possibly derail any sort of positive progress. YSL Woody has been the main proponent of acting out of pocket in the court room, even making up fake names to “snitch on”. However, it seems that YSL Mondo could be another catalyst in extending Young Thug’s appearances before a judge. According to No Jumper, the record label co-founder is doing too many interviews in the eyes Young Thug’s brother, Unfoonk. Currently, there’s a clip going around of Mondo blasting Woody for being “the biggest rat” he knows on the Its Up There Podcast.

Apparently, those two have been beefing amid this RICO Case and Unfoonk thinks it’s a bad look for Mondo to continue to speak. Even the popular Young Thug fan account on X, THUGGERDAILY, is calling him out. Unfoonk explained why this only making things worse in his eyes on an IG story while putting Mondo on blast. “N**** really doing interviews talking about sum they don’t know smh”, Unfoonk begins.

“Its a reason why wasn’t around u n****, save all dat cap s***, clout chasing a** n**** smh. Its only a matter of time before I say f*** it, u one of the reason why they saying we a gang dumb a** n****”. Mondo then took the time to clap back on X, saying that everything he’s saying is “1 million percent true” and that Unfoonk “been hating” on him since the latter got out of prison. Mondo then left things off with a threat, saying “I suggest you be quiet before I say some that’s gone hurt your feelings! You should be the last person talking period!! Now I’m just gone leave it there!”.

Lil Woody Goes Viral For Asking Judge If He Can Show Up Late To Court

by

Lil Woody has been one of the largest elements to the YSL Rico trial so far. Overall, the case has had recusals, alleged tampering, and all sorts of twists and turns. At the center of it all is Young Thug, who is facing serious prison time if convicted. However, Woody has proven to be a bit of a wild card in all of this. He is the star witness who is supposed to provide the prosecution with testimony that could sink Thug’s chances of winning. That said, the witness has also been uncooperative, and that is to put it mildly.

Every single day, Lil Woody appears to go viral for his antics during the trial. There are days where he is simply cracking jokes, or others where he will speak for a little bit and then completely change the subject as to delay the process. Yesterday, Woody went viral yet again, this time for his question to the judge about Friday’s proceedings. Woody was told he had to come to the courthouse for 9 AM. However, he ended up asking the judge if he could come for 10 instead.

Clearly, 9 AM was simply a bit too early for Woody in this case. It was yet another example of how he may not be taking this all that seriously. As for the judge, she had a bit of a laugh at the question, although she did tell him that he was to report to the court at 9 AM, no ifs, ands, or buts. For now, it remains to be seen how Friday will go. All we do know is that a lot of people just want Thugger to be free, and they want that to happen sooner rather than later.

What do you think will be the final conclusion to his testimony? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Young Thug’s Lawyer Files Another Motion To Recuse Judge Glanville

by

With the Young Thug case going on endlessly, his lawyer is doing whatever he can to ensure a speedier finish. With the trial extending beyond 12 months, Brian Steel has seen enough of Judge Glanville. Consequently, the lawyer for Young Thug is filing a supplement motion to recuse Glanville and Judge Rachel Krause. This news comes just a few weeks after Steel put forth his first motion. DJ Akademiks, as well as a crime and public safety writer for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution broke this just hours ago.

In the motion from Steel, he states, “Mr. Williams’ trial is constitutionally broken based upon the unconscionable misconduct of Judge Glanville”. He even adds in a handful of lawyers (Love and Hylton) who he feels cannot be trusted”. Additionally, the reason Steel wants Krause gone is because she helped with the reelection of Glanville. Overall, this additional motion harkens back to the time that Glanville organized a private meeting with a witness in the RICO case, YSL Woody.

Overall, the Young Thug trial has proven to be one of the most complicated ongoing stories in hip-hop. There are reports that this trial could very well last all the way until 2027. Moreover, there have been numerous issues involving witnesses and their testimony. There has also been accusations of ex-parte meetings and witness intimidation from the side of the prosecution. Young Thug’s lawyer Brian Steel even attempted to have Judge Ural Glanville recused from the trial.

One of the key witnesses in the trial is Lil Woody. As we have reported over the past couple of weeks, the Woody situation has been a bit bizarre, to say the least. He fired his lawyer in the middle of his testimony. Furthermore, he was jailed after refusing to testify during one of the court dates. Not to mention, whenever he does testify, he ends up wasting the court’s time by stalling and asking repeated questions. This week, Lil Woody has some time to himself, and it appears as though he is making the most of it.

DJ Akademiks Flabbergasted By Being Mentioned During Young Thug YSL Trial

by

Young Thug has been sorely missed by the entire rap community ever since he was arrested back in May 2022. He was brought in on a 56-count indictment that allegedly saw him head an Atlanta street gang that committed multiple serious crimes. Fans and peers alike are constantly wondering when he will be free, or what his fate will ultimately be. It seems we are far away from any decision as of now. Yak Gotti’s attorney filed a motion recently to shorten the prosecution’s witness list. Currently, the list is at a reported 400. One of those 400 could be DJ Akademiks, as his name was dropped in a recent YSL RICO trial.

There is no confirmation if he is even a suspected witness. But with names like LeBron James and Serena Williams being tossed around, DJ Akademiks has a good chance of being called in. The social media pundit has talked about this lengthy case extensively, so it was not too much of shocker to hear his name talked about. However, Akademiks was sure as hell confused as to why he was mentioned.

Young Thug’s YSL Trial: Judge & Prosecutor Get Into Heated Argument In Court

by

Fulton County Superior Court Chief Judge Ural Glanville called out District Attorney Adriane Love in court during Young Thug’s ongoing YSL RICO trial on Wednesday. He was unhappy with the late-minute submission of a 105-page PowerPoint presentation, which led to a shouting match between himself and the state’s attorney.

“That’s too late,” he remarked, before wagging his finger. “The evidence is excluded. I’m gonna exclude because I told you that this was gonna happen. We’re excluding that and I’m gonna exclude the PowerPoint that you all submitted. You’re not gonna wholesale introduce it.” From there, the prosecutor approaches the podium and argues that they attempted to reach out to the defense on multiple occasions.

Young Thug Seemingly References RICO Case On Kid Cudi’s “INSANO”

by

Today, Kid Cudi finally unleashed his eagerly-anticipated ninth studio album, Insano. As expected, the project boasts numerous high-profile features from the likes of Lil Wayne, Travis Scott, ASAP Rocky, and more. He even tapped Young Thug for the track “RAGER BOYZ,” amid the YSL founder’s ongoing RICO trial.

As his defense team fights for the rapper’s freedom, Young Thug has continued to release music from behind bars. He unveiled a full album back in June, Business Is Business, and has gone on to appear on several other artists’ records. Of course, several of his songs allude to his persistent legal troubles, and his verse on Insano is no exception.

Kid Cudi & Young Thug Team Up For “RAGER BOYZ”

“Ayy, I told the judge, ‘I’m prolly biggest off’ / I told the b*tch she can’t be chargin’ me for Saint Laurent / Yeah, I told my baby not to break the law / I told my baby mama, careful not to get involved,” Young Thug rhymes. The chorus of the song, featuring both artists, also repeatedly emphasizes the sentiment, “Motherf*ck the law.” While fans appreciate Young Thug’s clever bars, some suspect that the judge might not, as prosecutors have already tried to use song lyrics against him in court.

As for Kid Cudi, he promises fans that there’s even more to come. After unveiling the 21-track Insano tracklist earlier this week, social media users made their disappointment known, as it was rumored that the project would include 40 songs. He took to social media to respond amid the chatter, reminding followers that a deluxe edition is in the works. “I said there will be a deluxe,” he wrote. “Patience.” What do you think of Young Thug seemingly mentioning his court case on “RAGER BOYZ” with Kid Cudi?
