Thug grew to prominence in 2013 after releasing his mixtape 1017 Thug to positive critical reception. He has collaborated with artists such as Gucci Mane, Young Scooter, Rich Homie Quan and Waka Flocka Flame.

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.

Aye, how many hoes you bout to fuck, fool? Twelve
(We got London On Da Track) Hey

Never wore fake gold, nigga, diamond's water like it knew Michael Phelps
Every time I get a shape-up
I give 'em Jacksons like niggas was Michael Che (woo)
Nut by myself, hut by myself (what?)
Fight break off in the chain gang, they ain't getting cut by myself
Nigga same thing, nigga bang bang, I did a lot of things for this wealth
Yeah, what's left? (what's left?)
Calculator living, now she fuck me on the steps
50k a show, I pray to God I don't get killed
Plus she pray to God I don't get killed cause she need help
[?] in my belt (ooh, ooh)
Nigga, how the hell you gon' throw the profit?
My old school own diamonds, [?]
Nigga, nigga let 'em have it
How many, how many, how many girls
So many years without Tampax Pearls
But you forgot to train your lil' girl
