As many of you already know, Young Thug is currently in jail over a pending RICO case in Georgia. His YSL understudy Gunna is also facing similar charges right now, and the entire hip-hop world has been calling for their release, while also showcasing support on social media, and even in lyrics.
RICO cases can be incredibly scary as the conviction rate is high. One of the more recent RICO cases in the hip-hop world featured none other than 6ix9ine, who saw many of his former associates get over 10 years in prison. With Young Thug’s trial beginning in 2023, there is now a ton of speculation and analysis into what may happen next.
