Young Thug has embraced the reality of being a wanted man.
Despite having a warrant issued for his arrest, Thugger is continuing to promote his recently announced album, On The Run. The eccentric rhymer has unveiled a guest list for the project that plays up the concept of his legal woes.
Elton John is billed as the judge, Jaden Smith plays the prosecutor, 6LACK is his co-defendant and T-Shyne takes the role of the district attorney.
According to TMZ, a felony arrest warrant was issued for Thug in DeKalb County, Georgia. A grand jury indicted him on eight felony counts stemming from a 2017 arrest in which he was initially pulled over for tinted windows.
Thug has been charged with possession and intent to distribute methamphetamine, hydrocodone and marijuana. He’s also been charged with possession of amphetamine, Alprazolam, codeine and a firearm.

Young Thug is already prepared to drop his next album. Just a few weeks after releasing the Slime Language compilation with his YSL Records imprint, Thugger announced a new LP on Sunday (September 9).
“‘ON THE RUN,'” he tweeted. “Album in 2 days.”
Thugger’s second tweet indicates he’ll be releasing the album on Tuesday (September 11). It’s also possible he was describing it being recorded in two days since retail releases typically drop on Fridays.
While the ATLien has some new music on the way, he’s also dealing with serious legal woes. Thugger is facing eight felonies charges stemming from a 2017 arrest.
He has reportedly been charged with possession and intent to distribute methamphetamine, hydrocodone and marijuana. He’s also been hit with charges for possession of amphetamine, Alprazolam, codeine and a firearm.

More trash
So
This week, on Ru Paul’s Drag Race…
Is it going to be in English?
Thug’s feature on “We Ball” with Meek Mill was tremendous! Can’t imagine listening to a full solo Thugger song, let alone an album. Always been a feature rapper to me.
Next album: On Lock
That warrant issued today is gonna slow him down. Fk this pos he tried to kill lil Wayne. Says in the indictment he was on the phone with the shooter. He’s going away for a while and his rap “career” has been over.
Young Hug that should be his name with that weak ass material.
Are we supposed to be hyped for this? Cause that Slime Language album he barely dropped was trash.
Dude is below average artist well lets be honest I wouldn’t purchase nothing this clown put out wish he would get out the game
ummmm. So.
Young thug is a bitch and a liar…I personally know.
Last week friday night, Young thug did a concert here in Milwaukee at 618, and the DJ Gee A was playing a lot of songs that included rich homie Quan features….His people walked up to the DJ and told him to “don’t play anything with Rich homie in it, period, You got that?” don’t believe me
[from march 2015 after thug denied his feud with ex-lover ]
Y’all ain’t shit on my mother
