Young Thug Calls Out Gunna in Deleted Tweet: Inside the Growing Tension Between Former YSL Artists
Young Thug's recent tweet has sparked fresh speculation about tensions with former collaborator Gunna. The now-deleted message stated, "Gunna stop acting like we friends on the internet, I don't know you my guy," intensifying discussions about their relationship following Gunna's 2022 prison release.

The controversy stems from Gunna's acceptance of an Alford plea deal in 2022, which led to accusations of cooperation with authorities in Young Thug's ongoing case. Despite these claims, Gunna's attorney, Steve Sadow, has repeatedly denied any cooperation with law enforcement, stating explicitly on Instagram that "Gunna did not snitch to get out of jail" and that his plea statement cannot be used against other defendants.

The tweet's ambiguity has led to various interpretations, with some suggesting "Gunna" might be wordplay for "going to" rather than a direct reference to the artist. The swift deletion of the tweet has only added to the uncertainty surrounding their relationship.
Prior to this incident, Young Thug had expressed interest in continuing musical collaboration with Gunna through YSL Records, making the current situation more complex. While neither artist has provided further clarification about the tweet or their relationship status, the industry watches closely for developments that might affect their future collaborations.
This situation highlights the intricate dynamics of relationships within the music industry, particularly when complicated by legal matters. The coming months will likely reveal whether these artists can move past current tensions and resume their successful collaborative partnership.
