Young Thug And Gunna’s Complicated Relationship Takes Another Turn
The relationship between Young Thug and Gunna has long been under scrutiny, especially following their legal troubles in 2022. Once close collaborators, their bond faced strain after both were arrested as part of a gang-related indictment. Gunna accepted a plea deal, which fueled speculation about “snitching” and created tension between the two artists.
Young Thug stayed largely silent on the situation for months. In August 2025, he referenced Gunna in a leaked Lil Baby track, rapping, “Only reason I f**ked with you Gunna, it was cause of Troup.” The line clarified some of the lingering confusion among fans about their relationship.
On December 3, Lil Baby released his new album, The Leaks, featuring the full version of the track “Superman.” In this release, Young Thug’s verse was revised and no longer mentioned Gunna by name. The reason for this change is not confirmed, but fans speculate that Young Thug may be signaling a desire to move forward.
Young Thug discussed his feelings during a September appearance on the Its Up There podcast. He described the situation as complex, acknowledging that he still has love for Gunna but does not intend to collaborate with him again. He explained, “It ain’t even about not f*cking with you because I want him to just understand why I feel like it shouldn’t happen again. I’m not gonna be able to look at you the same no matter what. We can get a trillion dollars together, I’m still not gonna be able to look at you the way I looked at you before we went to jail. We love each other, we’re just going our own ways. Sometimes you do that.”
The removal of Gunna’s name from “Superman” adds another layer to their ongoing story. Fans will be watching closely to see whether the two artists reconcile creatively or continue on separate paths. The situation highlights the lasting impact of legal challenges on personal and professional relationships in the music industry.
