Rapper young thug his father advises him not to enter into a plea agreement before the trial in a new interview with The infamous Sylvia. The notice comes ahead of the YSL trial on the RICO charges starting Jan. 5.
Atlanta rapper Young Thug’s father, Jeffery Williams, Sr., shares his thoughts on what he should do before his RICO case. Williams Sr. said Young Thug, Jeffery Williams, Jr., shouldn’t accept a plea deal.
During the YouTube video, Infamous content creator Sylvia asked Williams Sr. if Young Thug’s YSL label was a gang.
“YSL is a record company,” Williams Sr. said. “The state made YSL a gang. The city made YSL a gang.
Williams Sr. also said that YSL stands for “Young Stoner Life” and not “Young Slime Life” and denied it was a gang. Later in the interview, Infamous Sylvia asked Williams Sr. what he thought of YSL members accepting plea deals in the case.
“Fear,” said Willams Sr. “That’s an A-1 token for the system.”
Williams Sr. also added that some YSL members accept plea deals because they are “scared” or “uneducated” regarding how the justice system works. Atlanta rapper and YSL member Gunna was released last month as part of a plea deal following being incarcerated since May 2022.
In addition to his RICO charges, Young Thug was also charged with street racing in Atlanta last month.
Last December, the Atlanta rapper young thug received good news as a judge ruled that cellphones and evidence seized from his home in 2015 might not be used as evidence in his RICO case.
