Young Thug’s father, Jeffery Williams Sr., took a bold stand against fellow Atlanta rapper Lil Baby. In a recent interview, Williams said the “Yes Indeed” rapper needs to “STFU” when discussing Gunna.
‘He Needs To STFU!’
In a December 19 interview with Infamous Sylvia, Jeffery Williams Sr. was brought on to discuss his son’s ongoing RICO trial. When asked about Lil Baby calling Gunna a “rat” in his new song, “350,” for taking a plea deal, Williams sharply gave his answer:
“He needs to shut the f*ck up because he doesn’t know what’s going on. He’s going off what he heard,” Williams continued, “Ask Lil Baby: has he ever come to a court date? That’s what I want y’all to ask these goddamn rappers and these bloggers with this old snitch s*it,” he added. “When have y’all went to a court date to support Slime, to support Jeffery, to support Thug? However you wanna name him.”
Fans Diss Lil Baby
Williams also suggested that fans spam Lil Baby’s Instagram comments and ask him why he hasn’t been to the courtroom to support Young Thug:
“Go on [his] social media pages and say, ‘Why in the f*ck haven’t you been to the courthouse to support your dude?’ And I guarantee you won’t get an answer.”
Users on Twitter (X) reacted to Young Thug’s father going off on the It’s Only Me artist. One user named @youlovevally commented, “Damn.. this is VALID now that I look @ it Lil Baby ain’t stepped a foot in court for support. “
Another user named @Ivan_Kamali commented, “The dad is right. They are quick to bring someone down by calling them rat off of what they hear on the internet, instead of actually being there in person supporting someone who is on trial!! One other user named @ToPimpAMorale joked by commenting, “This s*it funny Lil Baby doing too much for no reason.”
The 4PF rapper released a snippet in June 2023, and fans thought he was dissing Gunna. In the song preview, Lil Baby rapped:
“P*ssy n*ggas taking pleas/ I know Slime ain’t happy.”
Finally Free
Gunna was released from jail in December 2022 after entering an Alford plea in the YSL RICO case, which means he maintains his innocence but recognizes that it’s in his best interest to plead guilty. Many in the rap community frowned upon the decision and called him a “snitch” or a “rat.”

Young Thug’s Father Opens Up About “Unfair” RICO Case & Clears Gunna’s Name
Young Thug’s father, Big Jeff, recently shared his perspective on the ongoing RICO case involving his son. During a 3-hour livestream call with Infamous Sylvia, Big Jeff expressed unwavering support for his son, characterized the case as a “power show,” and cleared Gunna’s name once and for all.
Big Jeff Speaks Out
In a recent interview conducted on Friday, September 15, Big Jeff, the father of Young Thug, shared his perspective on the ongoing RICO case involving his son. During a 3-hour livestream call with Infamous Sylvia, Big Jeff supports his son and characterizes the popular legal case as a “power show.”
He vehemently denied any involvement of Young Thug in the alleged crimes, he remarked:
“I hate the young man lost his life (Donovan Thomas Jr.), but you gotta give credit to the people that took it, which is his own people, but you’re not gonna make my son his killer, by trying to paint a picture that he’s responsible for a lot of crime being done in the state of Georgia, not just Atlanta.”
According to Big Jeff, his son is being wrongfully targeted by prosecutors, particularly Fani Willis, the district attorney for Fulton County. Additionally, Jeff states that the matter with Fani Willis is “personal.”
‘She Was On The Payroll’
Infamous Slyvia then asked if they had had any interactions with Willis before, where he stated:
“I paid her when she represented us in a case. When she represented YSL Mundo, I’m the one that had to pay her. She’s more of a YSL gang member than anybody she got on the indictment, because she was on the payroll.”
He even suggested that Thugger allegedly had relations with Willis as well, backing up a baseless allegation made by former President Donald Trump. In August 2023, Trump stated:
“I guess they say that she was after a certain gang and she ended up having an affair with the head of the gang or a gang member,” Trump said. “And this is a person that wants to indict me.”
Furthermore, Big Jeff claimed Willis was attempting to pin the murder of Donovan Thomas Jr., a young man who allegedly lost his life, on Young Thug.
Big Jeff Clears Gunna’s Name
Thug’s father went on to explain that two other individuals who were tried and convicted for Donovan’s murder were Donovan’s own friends. These individuals had guns matching the ballistics of the bullets recovered from the victim’s body.
According to Jeff, they were caught near the area where the murder took place and eventually took plea deals. Big Jeff believes that these facts implicate multiple individuals in the crime, rather than just Young Thug.
Jeff also went the extra mile to clear rapper Gunna’s name in connection with the YSL RICO case, stating unequivocally:
“He hasn’t done anything to hurt us.” He added, “I love Gunna, let me try to help the attorney clarify that a little simpler. Gunna hasn’t done anything whatsoever that can hurt us on this case. Period.”
The interview also revealed that Gunna’s attorney had advised him to accept a plea deal deeming it the morally right course of action.
Tory Lanez Rejects 4-Year Plea Deal
In a loosely related story, singer Tory Lanez, known for the shooting incident involving Megan Thee Stallion, was recently sentenced to 10 years. Lanez rejected a 4-year plea deal and opted for a trial.
