DJ Akademiks has never been one to leave drama alone, and in one of his latest livestreams he throws some shade in the direction of Young Thug‘s YSL record label.
Thugger and YSL’s RICO case has seen its share of twists and turns over the last several months, with the most recent involving a leaked document that has revealed the name of a state informant cooperating with the prosecution.
After news of the informant broke, Akademiks made sure to get his two cents in on the situation. “YSL new name? YS-Tell,” Akademiks began his rant while requesting someone send him the leaked document. “Everybody tellin’, OK?! Everybody tellin’. All that slime and slat shit, they basically going to prosecutors and singing agreements, n-gga.”
After telling fans that he didn’t post any of the documents on his page for fear of violence occurring, Ak read off the paperwork stating that a YSL member had agreed to cooperate with authorities and inform them how Young Thug allegedly orchestrated the murder of a rival.
Akademiks then compared the informant’s cooperation to 6ix9ine, who famously agreed with prosecutors to testify against his co-defendants in his 2020 RICO trial in exchange for a lighter sentence.
“It’s so interesting, that the rap community shunned 6ix9ine and acted like what 6ix9ine did was an anomaly,” Ak said. “Yo, how could a n-gga act like a street n-gga and when got in problems, he was tellin’? Everybody didn’t like it.
“There’s something interesting about the street codes. You expect these dudes to uphold to a code, but they couldn’t uphold to the law. So they’re like, fuck the laws, but I’ll uphold to street codes. Why did they do that? I don’t know. When it come to n-gga shit and gangs? There’s no consequences for snitchin’ in Hip Hop culture!”
According to the Atlanta-Journal Constituton, one witness was placed in protective custody following the leak of documents online showing their willingness to testify.
On Thursday (August 18), Fulton County prosecutor Don Geary asked for information regarding the case to be further restricted ahead of next year’s trial for Young Thug and several YSL associates.
“We found a lot of information concerning one of our witnesses on basically a (celebrity news) outlet,” Geary told Superior Court Judge Ural Glanville.
Young Thug & Gunna Share Their First Conversation Since RICO Arrests
The news comes as Young Thug was denied bond for the third time on Thursday (August 18). On the same day Geary requested for information to be restricted, Judge Glanville ruled against the “Go Crazy” rapper, despite his lawyer’s wishes.
“He says in the songs he’s the general. He runs a very violent street gang that has committed numerous murders… if he’s let out I would expect that to continue. This is the real deal, these are violent people, dangerous people,” Geary said about Young Thug’s lyrics, which may potentially be used against him in trial.
Thugger and his team have repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and maintain their innocence.
Is not everyone….it’s one of two people more than likely…. YSL Woody or Gunna. Gunna is a possible one since he’s got a known history of snitching. YSL Woody was likely a plant in his crew for YFN from the start who was waiting for his opportunity but when the feds got him he decided to squawk and take a deal to save his own beak like a good stool pidgeon. YoungButtPlugga went from just 24 to 84 count indictment. He FUBARed. He better plea or he’s done. In hindsight, wearing a dress, make-up, and lipstick maybe wasn’t the best idea for his prison life survival chances.
Wakademiks once got into a fight with Grimace over the last hamburger at his 11th birthday party. Word is Grimace beat the shit outta him…
Naw, he ate Grimace. That’s why he’s been missing for almost a decade.
THOSE ARE MY BURGERS !!!!
Doesn’t matter, The lesson here is that crime doesn’t pay especially if you’re a butt pirate. Also the other lesson is that if you’re a fat gay looking teletubby loser all you have to do is be a constant bitch on social media and you can make it in this industry.
Idk why people are surprised. The name of the game in life is self preservation. If you’re really smart you don’t join gangs in the first place cuz they bring nothing but trouble. If you’re not that smart, but not stupid you lay low and stop that activity once you “make it” and move on to bigger and better things. If you’re dumb, you’ll work with prosecutors when you land in prison. Only brain dead fools stay silent and do decades in prison, because that’s what the “streets” say you should do. There’s no point. Someone always turns, the person protecting takes a plea, and the people laughing on the outside for “snitching” would 99% turn informant if the roles were switched. Freedom is priceless
Shut Up, Bitch
no YOU shut up, you remedial fuck. i guarantee you’re a little no-sheet ku klux on his mom’s laptop. SHUT THE FUCK UP, NO-SHEET
*Farts*
Your supposed to stay quiet because it’s hard to charge anyone with anything if no one is there to talk.
No one stays quiet. The prisoners dilemma is a thing for a reason, and prosecutors know how to get most to break. They’ve also been watching young thug since 2010, and I’m sure they have similar surveillance on everyone else involved, so even if they never talked the DA office is just going to take everyone to trial with what they already have. This case is a practice run for the Rico law that the DA wants to use on trump for GA election interference, so they’re not just gonna roll into court with just lyrics as evidence. Everyone involved is utterly screwed, and cooperating is gonna be most’s best bet if they wanna see outside again
When was the last time you saw a MFer in court on trial and taking the stand to talk? Never and still get his a$$ locked up. Lol
I don’t understand why people are surprised. When you’re faced with 20-30 years and your girl is pleasing with you not leave little John John alone without a daddy, you’ll get some cracks in your armor. These rappers are not mob type of dudes or even dudes from the Deathrow era.These young dudes wear skinny jeans and skateboard so I can expect a lot of people to tell on Young Thug and the shooters/criminals. Young Thug is not doing the crime but he’s ordering it and providing the financial backing.
All they got on him is renting a car, trust me idk if he’s innocent but we really shouldn’t put ppl behind bars based on hearsay and lyrics
Bro don’t even play, you know all YSL guilty. Can’t even argue
YSL guilty as fck. He’s stupid af too.
YSL 4 life
These are not the founding fathers of the Culture so they are not built like that. Get the book “Cash the source of Hip Hop’s Beginnings by JCash Thigpen” on amazon.com and goto hhcs.teachable.com and YouTube videos for “CASH179TH” get the songs of the birth of Rap and The real badboys of the Culture. Not these wannabes.
IF AKADEMIKS WAS IN THIS SITUATION HE WOULD SNITCH HIS OWN MOTHER I’M SURE.
I can‘t stand Akademiks but he‘s right – everybody tellin‘. All these rappers „real“ and gangsta and g-code this and no snitching that but as soon as they get pinched and face the prospect of spending all those years behind bars… Guess what? They all singing. Shit, I would too, fuck prison. It’s cool, just don‘t act hard in songs and interviews then.
I DON’T DISAGREE WITH YOU BUT NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR THIS FROM AKADEMIKS
Jay z holds that crown
It’s all good until someone is looking at real time. LOL. Blacks need to stop acting like they’re hard and immune to this sht. Only an idiot would do time for someone else’s wrong doing and only a loser finds himself in situations that require him not to snitch. Being a criminal is cool, stop acting all noble about it ???
Lawyers say dont talk. Gang leaders say don’t talk. Parents say don’t talk. BECAUSE! THEY Have you. All you can do is make it worse,trying talk your way out ,before you know how much shit they got on you. Which they have to tell your lawyer. Why drag others into the cell with you? Make a deal to plead to your own bullshit. You knew it was criminal and you loved it. Till them folks came knocking off them hinges. Your girl acting like she had no idea. Foh! Hold it down,get the best mouth piece.
