Young Thug has been dominating headlines this week after a series of leaked jail calls revealed that the Atlanta rapper admitted to cheating on his girlfriend, singer Mariah The Scientist. The couple, who began dating in October 2021, has been under intense public scrutiny as the explosive leaks continue to spread online. Now, in the wake of the controversy, Thug has made a surprising move — canceling a highly anticipated livestream with popular (and polarizing) streamer Adin Ross.
Ross broke the news to his viewers on September 7, just hours after Young Thug publicly apologized to Mariah in a heartfelt message. “I’m sorry chat. It’s not in my control. Young Thug wanna do it at a better time,” Ross explained. He made it clear that the decision came directly from Thug, who wanted to avoid fueling the already chaotic news cycle. The livestream, which had generated major buzz online, would have given Thug a massive platform to address the controversy — but instead, he opted to remain quiet for now.
According to Ross, the cancellation had nothing to do with money or clout. “He a real one tho, he didn’t wanna do it for $,” Ross told his audience, making it clear that Thug wasn’t interested in profiting off his personal turmoil. Instead, it seems the rapper’s main priority is handling his recent troubles privately rather than turning them into content for public consumption.
