History

Young Thug, born Jeffery Lamar Williams on August 16, 1991, in Atlanta, Georgia, emerged in the early 2010s as one of the most distinctive voices in Southern hip-hop. Known for a warbling, unpredictable vocal delivery and a genre-blurring style pulling from trap, dancehall, and pop, he built his name through mixtapes like "1017 Thug" (2013) and "Barter 6" (2015) before his 2019 debut studio album, "So Much Fun," entered the Billboard 200 at number one. He founded YSL Records (Young Stoner Life), mentoring artists including Gunna and Lil Keed. A genuine trivia point: Young Thug shares a Grammy for Song of the Year (2019) as a credited co-writer of Childish Gambino's "This Is America." He's also known for gender-nonconforming fashion, notably wearing a dress on the cover of his 2016 mixtape "Jeffery." In 2022 he was indicted in a high-profile Georgia RICO gang case tied to YSL, pleading guilty to reduced charges in 2024.
