Feat Young Thug – Young Thug BREAKS SILENCE on Jail Call EXTORTION, SENDS MESSAGE to Gunna & Addresses Features Pulled – Part 1

Young Thug finally speaks out. In this raw and unfiltered interview, Thug reveals new details about being extorted over leaked jail calls, makes it clear he will never forgive Gunna, and addresses the rumors that his industry features were being pulled during the YSL trial. Young Thug finally speaks out after years of silence. In this explosive conversation on It’s Up There Podcast, Thug details how he was extorted over leaked jail calls, why he will never forgive Gunna, and clears the air on the rumors about his industry features being pulled during the YSL trial. For the first time, Thug lays out what really happened behind the walls — from paying money to stop private calls from leaking, to realizing people close to him were part of the betrayal. He breaks down how extortion works inside the system, the trauma of hearing his own conversations sold to the world, and why this betrayal feels different than anything he’s faced before. The Gunna question is answered directly. Thug admits there will never be reconciliation, even though he still has love. He explains what loyalty really means to him, why trust is forever broken, and how brotherhood changes once it’s mixed with business. The line that shook the culture — “I want you to eat, just not at my table” — is explained in full context here. The conversation also touches on industry politics. Thug responds to claims that rappers pulled features when the case hit. He sets the record straight about who stood by him — mentioning Drake, 21 Savage, Pluto (Future), Cash, and more — and why the narrative that he was abandoned doesn’t match reality. This episode is about more than music. It’s about survival, betrayal, and what it costs to be one of the most influential voices of this generation. Young Thug opens up about losing $50 million while in jail, spending $14 million on lawyers, and the paranoia that follows betrayal. He also dives into his controversial album cover, why he chose to spark conversation about race and artistry, and how he’s rebuilding both his career and his trust in people. If you want the truth behind the headlines, this is the episode you can’t miss.
