Young Thug Worst Nightmare Is Now Reality

Last week, the Fulton County District Attorney in Atlanta charged rappers Young Thug and Gunna with an indictment of more than 80 pages for allegedly participating in street gang activities and violating RICO law — that’s short for “Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization” — a law that was originally designed to fight organized crime like the mafia.

The indictment names “Young Slime Life,” Young Thug’s rap collective, as a street gang, and the rapper as its founder. But these latest charges and arrest fit within a larger web of how the criminal justice system is using RICO to prosecute hip-hop artists. NPR’s Ayesha Rascoe spoke with NPR Music podcast Louder Than A Riot co-hosts Sidney Madden and Rodney Carmichael about how the definition of “gang” is being applied to rap crews.
