Snitching Allegations: Young Thug Presents Court Evidence in Defense
Atlanta rapper Young Thug, whose real name is Jeffery Williams, has firmly denied allegations of snitching after a resurfaced audio clip from a police interrogation went viral on August 27, 2025. The clip, originally surfaced nearly two years ago, allegedly features Thug mentioning Peewee Roscoe in connection to the 2015 Lil Wayne tour bus shooting.
Facing accusations of cooperating with authorities, Thug took to X to assert his loyalty, stating, “They didn’t play my interrogation video in court cause I helped my brada #Ratwhere?” He further doubled down by sharing a court motion, claiming it was filed because a detective falsely alleged he made a statement in a police car, which he insists “never ever happened.”
Thug also distinguished his actions from snitching, writing, “See the difference between me and you is… I made an honest mistake saying that we sold Lil Wayne Weed to try to prove to the detectives.”
Peewee Roscoe defended Thug in a social media video, calling him “clean as Listerine” and explaining that Thug’s interrogation comments were misinterpreted. Roscoe said Thug’s mention of selling weed to Lil Wayne was a standard tactic to deflect police, not snitching, stating, “He did what a tax-paying citizen do, a real street n***a. He kept it silent, kept it overly real.”
However, YSL co-founder YSL Mondo criticized Thug, accusing him of hypocrisy for previously labeling Gunna a “rat” over his Alford plea in the YSL RICO case while now facing similar scrutiny. The controversy has fueled infighting within the YSL camp, with YSL Duke also targeting co-defendant Yak Gotti over alleged statements to law enforcement.
Thug’s fans remain divided, with some defending his loyalty while others question his stance, especially given his past criticism of Gunna
