Young Thug is undoubtedly one of the trendsetters in Hip Hop. While some artists might opt to pick up a pen when it comes to their rhymes, Thugger explained to i-D magazine that he’s never written a lyric on paper in his life.
“I’ve never written a lyric. Ever,” he said. “I really haven’t. I kind of just freestyle. I just go with it as it comes. I never really wrote anything down. I’m not patient enough to sit and write. It just takes a lot of my day.”
The quote was prompted by a question asking about his favorite lyric he ever wrote. However, Thugger did reveal that he’d consider putting pen to paper when it comes to songwriting if he ends up in jail again.
“Only time I’ve had the time to write lyrics down is when I’ve been incarcerated,” he said. “Even if I just have to go to jail for a day or something. I don’t like writing and that’s the only way I can write; if I just got time on my hands and there’s nothing in the world I could do.”
Although, if he had to choose just one of his lyrics, the 30-year-old went with “Trying to kill these bastards like family don’t matter” off his 2017 Beautiful Thugger Girls song “Family Don’t Matter.”
“Maybe because of how important family is to me,” Young Thug continued. “You know? That’s probably why it’s like fuck, like, you actually said it.”

Cap
You forgot to add an “r” in between the c and a. There you go, That should help there, buddy. Good as new.
He said he’s never written a lyric down ever then proceeds to say that the only time he’s written a lyric down was in jail. Lol so you have written lyrics down. Tf are you saying.
What do you expect, these breeds are born in slow motiin
Not known at all for his lyrics. These producers need to start showing their brand more. This article a perfect example of new era rap only being good if the beat is fire.
We know because it SOUNDS like he’s never written a proper 16 bars in his life. He’s horrible…. Revolutionary lol…no, he’s another word that begins with an “R” and that’s revolting. He’s part of the reason why so many people keep thinking that the ATL is a gay culture now. If it weren’t for Gucci Mane (Before Prison) Young Jeezy (Not just Jeezy), Big Boi , Ludacris , 2Chainz , ShawtyLo , and Pastor Troy even I’d be ashamed to represent Atlanta cuz this recent generation of rappers wear too much makeup,skirts, lipstick,dresses, colored extension, and polished nails to pay attention to keeping it real/street or honing their craft.
He raps like taco tuesday night at the prison and all the stall are full except you can at least flush the toilet after you’re done unfortunately with his music,in Atlanta it has become a part of the gay culture now so you’re forced to listen to it everywhere.
some people just freestyle bars – there was dudes back in the day who were rumoured to have freestyled whole albums other guys like Pac wrote everything down. Young Thug is more of a vibe artist than a lyrical dude nothing wrong with that
Yes there is when it’s garbage.
got a lot of hateful people on here masquerading as rap fans just saying whatever with no context- fk you proud boy losers
You support not taking pride in your craft so fuck you. Dude said it would take too much time out his day to get better basically. He ain’t shit but a surrogate for producers then, they making the vibe not him. Simp
What craft? He’s Young Thug he does young thug music people like. He doesn’t have to pass your rap college course for people to dig his vibe. He’s not my favorite but there’s good Young Thug tracks. He laid back does shooby dooby scat style improvised sing song rap. He not stopping anybody from spitting complete lyrics on their own project
