Gunna is continuing to show love for Young Thug, even though some critics are raising their eyebrows.
Young Thug, caught up in a highly publicized YSL RICO trial, is getting plenty of love from fans and peers alike. Having been behind bars for over two years now, he faces accusations that his Young Stoner Life label is actually a ‘violent street gang.’ Despite efforts to speed up the trial last year, it’s rumored to drag on until 2027. Arrested in May 2022 alongside several alleged YSL members, including Gunna, the case has generated intense public interest.
Gunna was released in December 2022 after taking a plea deal, fueling speculation that he turned on his co-defendants for freedom. He denies this, yet rumors persist. Regardless, he frequently shows support for Young Thug, both at his shows and online, eliciting mixed reactions from his followers.
Recently, Gunna took to Instagram to share a new photo dump featuring shots from his ‘Bittersweet’ tour, workout videos, and more. Among these was a poignant image of a small child wearing a t-shirt that read ‘Free Thugga,’ signaling his ongoing support for his former collaborator.
In an interview with XXL last month, Gunna emphasized that his friendship with Young Thug remains unchanged despite the ‘snitching’ rumors. ‘It’s the same,’ he said about their bond. ‘It’s love, always. Our relationship is our relationship… I definitely feel like everybody’s been misled.’
Gunna’s actions speak louder than words, showing that his loyalty to Young Thug remains steadfast despite ongoing controversies and public scrutiny.
