In addition to the aforementioned allegations, Young Thug is also facing murder, assault and armed robbery charges.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis alleges Thug’s Young Slime Life, which is also the name of his record label is affiliated with the Bloods gang and is responsible for “80% of violent crime in Atlanta.”

Thug’s father believes the District Attorney has it all wrong because YSL is a record label.

“It’s a business, It’s a record label,” he explained, before calling on other parents to join him in marching against street violence

“I want any parent that has lost a child to the street violence, any parent that wants to join in marching on street violence, because these are our kids. These are our kids out here. That’s been misled.”
