    Id guess all the d**** on them were for personal use, maybe cops planted meth or it was knock off addies

    a little bit of meth be in everything tbh.

    niggas get caught with lean or ecstasy or prescriptions, they test it, and tack on the meth charge on top.

    I remember when niggas thought TI was doing meth lol

    S*** is terrible

    How is RICO legal

    They're trying to paint it like these guys are the mob,

    Which sounds cool in fantasyland but in reality they're trying to get as many with as many charges as they can

    Thug is doing no less than 3-5 at this point he has the money and resources for anything they accused ysl of

    gunna might be forced to snitched if he want no time and the same goes for everyone else wanting minimal time in ysl

    Theres no way Thug is only doing 3-5 at this point. Thats how long Gunna will probably be locked up though if he doest snitch.

    I mean music aside, a lot of these dudes legit terrorize their own communities and make it hard for the honest working man

    Not exactly Robinhood stealing bread for their families

    Is this the APD or federal government charging them? Looks like it said state of Georgia on the charges so I’m guessing APD?

    Fair, but Shmurda had a lot of clout of that song. His era would have been just as big as Fetty Wap’s.

    Fetty another rapper they got on conspiracy charges.

    Doesn’t really matter. RICO was originally used against the Mafia people like Capone who didn’t get his hands dirty so they’ll get the low level guys to snitch on everyone who even claims affiliation. That’s exactly the whole point

    Yes, the heads of crime organizations. Like young thug. Lil baby could be repping it for status which is completely different than financing or helping

    Plot twist: cops been pressuring labels to sign more street acts just cause they knew they wouldn’t be able to let the life go and it helps them build bigger cases. It was a long game.

    Knew hip hop taking over as much as it did this past 10 years was mysterious. It was all a setup to bring down everyone in hip hop.

    I can definitely see that,labels been the Feds. Lyon Cohen was actually gonna help BMF/Big Meech create BMF Ent. with the intent of helping them money launder. Then the Feds came down on Cohen and told him “if you sign BMF,the FBI will investigate you and Def Jam”and he dropped BMF like a bad habit.

    Young Jeezy was gonna be apart of the label. So I’m saying,these execs know exactly what’s going on so they could definitely be a real initiative.

    I thinks so too. I think they have leverage on some of these labels and they in on helping to sting these artists.

    everyone in industry knew ysl & thug himself lived their raps

    his mannerisms past couple years showed he knew his freedom was on borrowed time

    There is so much incriminating s*** in all of their song and videos too. Not just there’s guys either it’s so common in rap music these days…

    Hopefully situations like this will make some people re consider how they’re moving and portraying themselves
