Young Thug dripped his lawyer out in different pieces from his streetwear line SP5DER ahead of the brand’s latest drop – and fans are loving it.
In a post to the brand’s official Instagram, Brian Steel can be seen rocking various SP5DER hoodies and sweats as an advertisement for their Black Friday drop. It’s quite the contrast from the suits he’d been seen wearing alongside his client in court, and people in the comments ate it up.
“Judge Glanville is probably shouting ‘I KNEW STEEL WAS YSL,'” one person joked. Someone else wrote, “Hardest thing I’ve ever seen.”
Other comments included: “Viral king,” “Young thug got his lawyer dripped out in that sp5der [fire emojis]” and, “I felt the aura 10 scrolls away.”

The pieces are all available now on SP5DER’s website.
Brian Steel represented Young Thug through the long-running YSL RICO trial, which successfully resulted in the rapper’s release from jail as part of a plea deal that includes 15 years of probation.
A part of the terms of his probation is community service, which Judge Paige Reese Whitaker specified includes talking to students.

When Steel made an appearance at Emory University School of Law earlier this month, he conferenced Thug in via FaceTime, who had some inspiring words for the room of aspiring lawyers.
“You gotta always look at it like they’re there to put us in prison and you guys are here to keep us from prison. Brian Steel is the best person possible,” Thug told them. “He should be a professor. You guys should become lawyers. I think it’s very important to help people out of the situations they’re in the best you can. I mean, what side do you want to be on? You want to put people in prison for mistakes? Because everybody makes mistakes, they’re human.”
He continued: “And everybody on this phone, in this classroom, you always need to know that you’re one mistake away. I feel like we need more people like Brian Steel on this earth and less people like that. So I think it’s very, very, very important to be a lawyer over anything. Lawyers and doctors are the two greatest things that were ever founded.

“You actually help people. That’s doing the real God work. I think every one of you in the classroom should become lawyers for sure. Anything you need from me, I’m here always. We need y’all.”
