YG has reignited his longstanding feud with former president Donald Trump with yet another lucrative jab soon after the latter’s mugshot went public.
On Thursday (August 24), the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office released the booking photo that was taken when the Republican politician turned himself in following his indictment for election interference.
The next very day, YG followed up on his 2016 collaboration with Nipsey Hussle, “FDT (Fuck Donald Trump),” and announced a new line of t-shirts featuring Trump’s sulky image while he was in police custody.
Check out the new merch drop via the Compton rapper’s imprint, 4Hunnid below:
YG and the late Nipsey Hussle created one of the definitive protest anthems of modern United States politics with “FDT (Fuck Donald Trump).” During the last elections, appreciation for the joint spiked as its sales tripled.
According to Nielsen Music/MRC Data (via Billboard), the DJ Swish-produced track became one of the most popular songs in the country once again, experiencing a reported 221 percent jump in sales as the elections were underway (November 3, 2020) compared to the previous day, while streams increased from 240,000 to 1,050,000 — a 338 percent rise.
In 2018, Nipsey broke down how the monumental collaboration came to be. During an appearance on Big Boy’s Neighborhood, he referred to YG as a genius.
“I think protest music is important,” Nip said. “Even how the song came up, we was just in the studio doing a collab mixtape. He asked me, ‘What you think about this Donald Trump shit?’ I’m like, ‘I thought it was a joke!’ I didn’t really think he could secure a Republican endorsement or even win. I didn’t think that was possible. The way the song came out it was really like some movie shit.”
He continued: “He said, ‘I got a beat, what you think?’ He played the beat, started bouncing his head, said the hook and everybody in the studio like, ‘This song? You just saying ‘Fuck Donald Trump’ over and over on the hook.’ It immediately clicked and we knocked it out in one take.”
Biden way tha fuk worse. What y’all even on. Ain’t never voted but I’m swingin right whenever next voting is. Shit we in now is fucked up.
Did the Stormfront send you? Dylan Roof ass troll.
White Supremacist dudes all up in these HipHop sites trying to do reverse psychology to other non black people.
Then say I’m woke for saying this. FOH!
Hahaha! Lames. Black people don’t care about riding no politician d*ck, let alone a rapper.
That’s some devil worshipping sh*t Yall love Satan.
@Bez how the fuck do you know who typed that comment? You don’t, so sit your ass down. And if that “reverse psychology” actually works on ppl, perhaps you should tell those people to use their fucking brains. Also, how is lying about your race reverse psychology? Or your views? Reverse psychology would be more like saying how horrible and awful Trump is, painting him so badly that others are inclined to then defend him. You clearly didn’t know what reverse psychology means.
@ Idiot you’re right, in context I am wrong how I used reverse psychology, but as far as I’m concerned it is what it is. Definition of reverse psychology: subtly encouraging a behavior….keep talking about how bad things are based on a current politician vs. A previous politician, check.
By advocating its opposite….non black folks on a predominately black music website advocating for a idealism unpopular in black culture. Example, let’s keep flooding these comment sections with as many anti woke, pro Chump, political propaganda as much as possible and perhaps these n*ggers will be convinced their peers must be on to something and jump on the Supremacist band wagon. The shooting in Jacksonville, Florida proves my point. This is psychological warfare.
YG? lmao , another nobody loser trying to clown trump. Dementia patient and creepy hair sniffer in chief biden or trump. America is a laughing stock around the world thanks to senile joe mumbling absolute gibberish and falling over all the time. We currently have a president who would be better off in a 24h care home
Was it really that popular? I hope you make your money back on the shirts. Lol
