After a long legal ordeal, Young Thug is back and reconnecting with old friends, including Atlanta rap legend T.I. The “About the Money” collaborators reunited on November 4, sharing a video that shows the two grinning and hinting at new music. This comes shortly after Thug’s release from jail on a plea deal, marking a new chapter after over two years of incarceration.

In the video shared by T.I., he teases Thug’s return by asking, “What you gotta tell these people?” Thug, ever the showman, responds, “Back, Jack […] No cap in my rap. The right way.” The King of the South himself added fuel to the fire by captioning the post: “The Kings have Reconvened #KingJeffrey #KingSr Guess I’m officially outta retirement.” This suggests that T.I. might be tempted to step back into the studio — at least for one more round with Young Thug.

Building Momentum

Thug’s release has sparked excitement across the music industry, with multiple artists expressing their eagerness to work with him. In fact, one of his first social media posts since his release was directed at fellow Atlanta star Lil Baby. “Wham let’s drop one on these rats peter,” he wrote, referring to his close friend by nickname. Shortly after, billboards promoting the potential collaboration began to appear in Los Angeles and Chicago, emblazoned with “Whatever Wham Says Goes,” a nod to a previous message from Thug during his jail stint.

Lil Baby appears ready to deliver, posting a video on his Instagram Stories soundtracked by their 2020 song, “We Should,” with the message: “I missed you mf!!!! Welcome home my brudda! Thank God you able to get back to your fam in good health and spirits!” Their bond remains strong, signaling an exciting collaboration for fans.

Thug’s Uncertain Relationship with Gunna

The possibility of new music with Lil Baby, however, brings up questions about Thug’s relationship with another YSL artist, Gunna. In 2022, Gunna faced backlash and accusations of snitching after he took a plea deal in the YSL RICO case, sparking rumors of a rift. Though Thug has largely remained silent, his recent plea deal added an interesting twist: it included a request to contact and work with Gunna, which some see as a potential business decision rather than a personal reconnection.

As he adjusts to life on the outside with 15 years of probation ahead, Young Thug’s interactions will be closely watched. His reunions and collaborations indicate he’s ready to move forward, though his choices may test the loyalty of those in his circle and could reshape YSL’s internal dynamics.
