Young Thug is doubling down on his stance against snitching in hip-hop, sparking conversation on X (formerly Twitter) with a cryptic message many believe was aimed at his former YSL affiliate and longtime friend, Gunna.
On Monday (July 7), Thug wrote, "If u a rapper and u a rat, u gotta just go gospel twin."
The comment quickly caught fire online, with fans interpreting it as a subliminal diss directed at Gunna, who has faced snitching allegations since taking a plea deal in the ongoing YSL RICO case.
DJ Akademiks chimed in with a blunt response, suggesting the snitching narrative no longer holds weight in the eyes of fans: "Somebody gotta tell Young Thug that he’s the last rapper on earth who cares who SNITCHING. Lowkey half these n****s telling and the ones telling make the best music. Fans don’t give af."
Young Thug responded directly to Akademiks, seemingly acknowledging the sad truth behind the statement—but with a twist: "That’s actually crazy but true, except the making the best music part."
The exchange once again highlights the divide in hip-hop over loyalty, the street code, and how much weight snitching allegations really carry in today’s music culture.
