Young Thug is on a 15-year probation but that did not stop him from electrifying the crowd at his first concert after being released from prison last October.

The Atlanta artist, who is prohibited from entering Atlanta for 10 years, performed at Summer Smash in Chicago.

Thugger gave a heartfelt shout-out to his longtime love Mariah The Scientist and performed the hit track Ski.

The 2021 song was a collaborative effort between Thug and Gunna, who is also mentioned in the original lyrics.

However, the 33-year-old refrained from saying his old friend’s name during Sunday’s performance, seemingly confirming bad blood between the two.

The Stoner hitmaker allegedly called his YSL affiliate a “rat” after he was released and seemingly doubled down on his sentiment when he posted on X, formerly Twitter: “Gunna stop acting like we friends on the internet, I don’t know you my guy.”

Since then, Thug’s label YSL Records has removed all mentions of Gunna on their Instagram, while the Drip Too Hard rapper has made a music deal with another label and has been teasing his next album.

Why did Young Thug call Gunna a snitch?

Following Young Thug’s arrest in May 2022, YSL member Gunna also turned himself in after an arrest warrant was issued in his name.

Gunna was released in December 2022 after making a plea deal, causing some to believe that the Lemonade hitmaker had snitched on his affiliates.

The 31-year-old and his attorney have publicly denied informing against his YSL associates.
