Young Thug is coming off a particularly prolific year, having pumped out four well-received releases in 2016. Jeffery, featuring instaclassics like “Floyd Mayweather” and “Guwop,” landed on a slew of year-end lists, including our own. As Brendan Klinkenberg wrote in our top 50 roundup, Jeffery “is, inarguably, Thug’s most cohesive, coherent album.”
During a takeover of YouTube’s New York office in August, 300 Entertainment CEO Lyor Cohen declared Young Thug the most brazen artist he’s ever known. “You wake up every day without any fear,” Cohen said, Billboard reported. “I’ve dealt with so many rappers all through my life that wake up every day fearful. They’re scared to death and they try to imitate the most successful rapper at that moment. You don’t even listen to the radio.”
