Young Thug fell victim to an “insert-foot-in-mouth” scenario on Monday (December 28) on an episode of Gillie Da Kid’sMillion Dollaz Worth Of Game podcast. During their conversation, Thugger was bragging about having 30 or 40 stadium-worthy anthems, slipped up and essentially insulted JAY-Z in the process, saying, “JAY-Z ain’t got 30 songs like that.”
Judging by the look on Gillie’s face, Thug must have realized he said something outlandish and quickly backtracked.
“I’m just saying like, I know he do, he probably got 50 of them bitches,” he sputtered. “I”m not literally saying him. I’m saying n-ggas who you thinking … I seen n-ggas like, ‘Damn, they don’t know this song?’ I’m so scared to get boo’ed, I don’t even perform songs they won’t know.”
With 13 studio albums dating back to 1996, Hov has amassed an arsenal of not only Billboard hits but also celebrated B-sides. Not to mention, he’s sold over 29,179,000 studio albums as of December 2014.

Young Thug Gets Crucified On Twitter For André 3000 Disrespect
Meanwhile, Young Thug has dropped one solo studio album — the platinum-selling So Much Fun — three EPs and 19 mixtapes. Of those 19 mixtapes, seven of them have charted on the Billboard 200. 2016’s Jeffery peaked at No. 8 and his Super Slimey collaboration with Future landed at No. 2, his highest chart position to date.
Thugger has faired much better on the Billboard Hot 100. Thirty of his songs either as a featured or lead artist have been certified at least gold by the Recording Industry Industry of America (RIAA), while his collaboration with Camila Cabello, “Havana,” was certified 9x-platinum in 2017.
