Thug was born amongst the masses eliminating any doubt that he wouldn’t be special. The second youngest child of 11 children developed a skill for standing out amongst many, early. Young Thug moved to Jonesboro, an impoverished suburb of Georgia where his lifestyle was engrossed by the crime, drug addiction and violence that surrounded him. It was there that he developed an insatiable appetite to succeed his current situation. After discovering and acknowledging his talent and creativity for music in 2010, Thug started a new hustle that would soon mature as one of the most promising music careers in the South. He also founded the record label YSL ( Young Stoner/Slatt Life) in 2010.
Eyeballing the throne of Hip hop royalty, Young Thug began to create a sound and style that would inevitably place him on top. Young Thug’s catchy verses and raw lyrical talent distinguished noise from art, clearly being the latter his creations are the best that remain of Southern hip hop. He is the embodiment of the evolution of Southern hip-hop. Young Thug is the representative for a generation that doesn't see hip-hop as a hobby but a lifestyle. Keeping true to himself, his art, and his home Young Thug will stand alone as the one true savior of the Southern movement.
2. Young Thug aka The Demon Child is hardcore/horrorcore rapper/beatmaker from Central France. Often collaborated with Lil Prod. Also he made 2 albums under the alias Da Mystic Terror, in these 2 albums he changed his voice to make it sounds like it's an other person rapping.

For My People
Young Thug Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
YSL shit, know what I'm sayin?
Me and Lil Duke
Aye lil' boo, who are you?
I put it down for my people
Ready to die for my people
We multiply with the people
We gon' take lives for these people
We gon' fly high like an eagle
I sold them hunnas and eagles
I know that bitch and mistreat 'em (Thugger!)
Beat up that pussy, no nerve in it
Bitch say she straight like a perm in it
Bentley Spur with the curtain missin'
Bentley Spur with the curtain missin'
Pussy clean, ain't no germs in it
My pocket, it look like a book with the worm in it
I woke up, I prayed and I'm hustlin'
I roll up, I pull up with shorty
I pour up a four of the muddy
I pour up a four of the muddy
I lean, I lean on my luggage
Got Aquafina, it's nothin'
I fucked that bitch while in London
I beat that bitch like I'm London
I put in work for my people
You say you not broke, but me either
Man I'm gettin' so fly like a seagull
And I'm ready to die for my people
Bitch I'm a zoo, not a zebra
I cook up the dope and no ether
Old school, it sound like a beeper
We not gon' let you mistreat 'em
Bitch I'm the shit, fuck a toilet
If you can't stand him then seat him
Run up a check and I'm glory
Farrakhan, me, I'm a leader
I was just smokin' on doja
Fuck niggas trick 'em and treat 'em
Pour up a four in a 40
We drop a four in a liter
I pour up a four while he cook up the blow
I just fucked your hoe, pussy nigga you know
I just got the blow and it came off the boat
Got racks inside my skinny jeans and they pokin'
No hokey, no pokey, fuck nigga you're broke as shit
I heard that you tote it, I heard that you wrote it
I heard that they pay you to watchin' your focus
I put it down for my people
Ready to die for my people
We multiply with the people
Have a shootout for my people
We gon' take lives for these people
We gon' fly high like an eagle
I sold them hunnas and eagles
I know that bitches mistreat 'em
Beat up that pussy, no nerve in it
Bitch say she straight like a perm in it
Bentley Spur with the curtain missin'
Bentley Spur with the curtain missin'
Pussy clean, ain't no germs in it
My pocket, it look like a book with the worm in it
Lil Duke insisted
Thot bitch, she crippin'
Play with me, he trippin'
They find your ass missin'
We built like relentless
Pull up to shows in them Bentleys
Choppa go right for your kidneys
I'll prolly be fuckin' your mistress
I swear this one hell of a feelin'
I swear this one hell of a livin'
I drink on the Act all day
I got a hell of a kidney
I swear that they know that these niggas ain't scarin' me
YSL on, bangin' that 'til they bury me
These niggas fake and they're fairies, they're tellin' me
We some young veterans dodgin' the federal, settled
I whip up that white like she work, I'm the chef
I know a few niggas just waitin' on my death
Bitch I'm Sudan, I got planes on my steps
Y'all bitches, you know we in here
Got bitches on bitches, you know we in here
Yeah, we make it snow in the VIP
Gats on our hips and we totin' in here
Racks in my pocket, they know what it is
I put it down for my people
Ready to die for my people
We multiply with the people
Have a shootout for my people
We gon' take lives for these people
We gon' fly high like an eagle

I know that bitches mistreat 'em
Beat up that pussy, no nerve in it
Bitch say she straight like a perm in it

Bentley Spur with the curtain missin'
Pussy clean, ain't no germs in it

Young thug is a musical genius. He is pretty much a human instrument the way he can bend his pitch and make melodies out of indistinct lyrics. He'll start a word on one note and hit 3 or 4 notes by the end of it. The guy goes through full scales in one line. This makes his verses reminiscent of guitar solos. completely improvised, You don't need to understand what he's saying when his voice is an actual instrument. It's not about what he's saying but how he's saying it. It's not about the meaning of the lyrics it's about the feeling. The feeling is the meaning. He's also extremely hood it's his language. He's evolving language tho so that you don't need to know what he saying to feel something. If your worried about the lyrics you don't get the genius that is young thug.
