Atlanta rapper Lil Baby recently disclosed that he was at Young Thug’s home just hours before the police raid in May 2022 that led to Thug’s arrest in connection with the YSL RICO case. 

The revelation came during an appearance on Lil Yachty’s podcast, A Space Place, where Lil Baby also expressed his joy over Thug’s release.

Reflecting on the arrest, Lil Baby shared how difficult it was to watch Young Thug navigate his legal troubles. The experience profoundly impacted him, prompting significant changes in his own life and career. He advised aspiring rappers to avoid naming their record labels after their crews, warning that such affiliations could lead to legal issues similar to Thug’s case.

Lil Baby admitted that the ordeal opened his eyes to the potential consequences of being associated with others’ actions. He revealed that he has since narrowed his circle and shifted his focus toward family and personal growth.

Young Thug’s arrest, which has kept him behind bars for over two years, significantly altered the landscape of Atlanta rap. Meanwhile, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis continues to crack down on such cases, emphasizing the importance of staying clear of legal trouble.
