21 Savage is working to ease the tension in Atlanta’s rap community, specifically aiming to resolve the conflict between Young Thug and Gunna.
On December 17, the Slaughter Gang artist took to X to urge the former YSL collaborators to reconcile and move forward. He openly called for healing, addressing both artists directly.
He wrote, “@gunna @youngthug Yall n*ggas fix that shit yall love each other n*gga you knew gunna wasn’t no gangster when he told the first time and we swept it under the rug for you.”
“You know he wasn’t tryna leave you to hang n*gga fuck the streets we ain’t get shit but trauma from that shit.”
The friction between Young Thug and Gunna began back in 2022 when Gunna accepted a plea deal in the high-profile YSL RICO case.
For some, this move was seen as a betrayal toward Thug, his longtime friend and collaborator. Interestingly, Thug eventually agreed to a plea deal as the protracted trial reached an impasse.
As of now, neither artist has responded to 21 Savage’s public plea.
