Looks like Young Thug is ready to make music with fellow Atlanta rapper Lil Baby again.
Just a few days after being released from Fulton County Jail after a more than two-year ordeal that saw his record label YSL embroiled in a RICO case with the state of Georgia, Thugger took to X to tell Lil Baby aka “Wham” that he wants to release a song. “Wham let’s drop one on these rats peter,” he tweeted.

Lil Baby then responded in kind on his Instagram Stories, telling Thug, “I missed you mf!!!! Welcome home my brudda! Thank God you able to get back to your fam in good health and spirits! Wish ya none but billions jack! #whatwhamsaysgoes.”
Earlier today, billboards appeared around L.A. that say, “Whatever Wham Says Goes” multiple times as if the statement was written on a chalkboard during detention like Bart Simpson in the opening credits of The Simpsons.

“Whatever Wham Say Goes,” refers to a June 26 tweet from Thug which many assumed referred to some comments Lil Baby said about YSL member Gunna during a performance.
Back in December of 2023, Lil Baby was on stage where he allegedly told the crowd, “F—k the rats, turn this sh—t off,” as the DJ played his Gunna collab “Drip Too Hard.” This came around the same time Gunna took a plea deal and was released from jail during the early moments of the the YSL RICO case.
Still, with all the controversy still surrounding Gunna and his plea deal, the judge gave Thug permission to work with his labelmate again. Gunna has denied the snitching allegations and even Thug’s father has came to his defense on multiple occasions. We’ll have to see how he and Thug’s relationship plays out, but for now we’ll wait on this new Slime and Wham that’s coming down the pike.
Young Thug seems eager to collaborate once again with fellow Atlanta rapper Lil Baby, signaling a potential new music release on the horizon.
