Young Thug seemed to be in good spirits in court this week.
A new clip of Thugger and his lawyer vibing out to his song “Halftime” has gone viral.
It’s unclear why the song was being played in court.
“Halftime” is from Thug’s arguably best album, 2015's Barter 6, which boasts appearances from Birdman, T.I., Boosie Badazz, Young Dolph, and Jacquees, among others.
It’s good to see the 32-year-old in a cheery mood, given that Thursday, May 9 marks two years since he and 27 other YSL members were arrested in a 56-count RICO indictment. The trial started last November and has been the longest in Georgia’s history. It's unknown when it will end.
Prosecutors alleged that Young Thug is the co-founder and leader of the alleged gang Young Slime Life. He’s also been accused of other crimes, beginning in 2013, the year before he released his hit songs, “Stoner” and “Lifestyle.” Among the charges are conspiracy to violate RICO, participation in criminal street gang activity, violation of the Georgia Controlled Substances Act, and possession of a machine gun.
