Young Thug Denies Snitching Claims After Viral Interrogation Audio Resurfaces

August 28, 2025 | ATLANTA

Atlanta rapper Young Thug addressed a resurfaced police interrogation clip today on social media, vehemently denying allegations that he cooperated with authorities and insisting he was only trying to help a friend.

According to an Express Tribune report, the two-hour recording, first made public nearly two years ago and circulated again this week, features Young Thug allegedly name-dropping fellow YSL associate Peewee Roscoe while under police questioning. Fans on X (formerly Twitter) reignited criticism, accusing the rapper of “snitching” on his peers.

In a post responding to the renewed controversy, Young Thug wrote, “They didn’t play my interrogation video in court ’cause I helped my brada. #Ratwhere?” He maintained the footage demonstrates his loyalty, not betrayal, and called on critics to reconsider the context before judging his actions.

The clip’s reemergence also revived debates over Young Thug’s past conflicts with labelmates who faced similar accusations, particularly rapper Gunna, who entered an Alford plea in the YSL RICO case in December 2022. While some supporters applauded Young Thug’s transparency, others questioned his consistency, noting his earlier public denouncements of artists who cooperated with prosecutors.

As the online discourse continues, Young Thug’s clarification underscores the delicate balance between legal strategy and public perception in the ongoing aftermath of his high-profile RICO case.
