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.

Murder she wrote, murder she wrote, murder she wrote
Murder she wrote, murder she wrote, murder she wrote
Murder, murder, murder, murder, murder, murder, murder
Murder, murder, murder, murder, murder, murder, murder
Murder, murder, murder, murder, murder, murder, murder

No bird, I′m pickin' peacock trees

I′m just trying to raise it up for all the seeds
Don't play or I send all the bees
And this bitch tryna get a hold of these bees
I remember ridin' around with .223s
But I′m thankful for my giving, no knees
Any blunts that we smoke bigger than leaves
12 smell ′em, they tryna pull up and make us leave
Young Thugger be Pillsbury Dough, baby
Young Thugger take a brick and make it snow baby
Young Thugger turn a nine into a ho baby
When you leave Thug, you gotta change the clothes baby

Murder she wrote, murder she wrote, murder she wrote

We just livin' life and like a flu car you cop us
And if a nigga bases is loaded, we red sock ′em

Overall Meaning

The song "Murder" by Young Thug is a rap song that talks about the violent nature of the streets and the tough life that comes with it. The chorus is simply repeating "murder she wrote" over and over again, which seems to imply that the streets write their own violent stories through the acts of murder. In the verses, Young Thug talks about his own experiences living in the streets and the various tactics he uses to survive. He makes reference to guns and drugs, claiming to have had .223s and turned nine into ho's, which is likely a reference to turning a 9mm gun into a machine gun or submachine gun using illegal modifications, alluding to his involvement in criminal activities.

The first verse talks about how Young Thug is trying to make a living and raise himself up using peacock trees, which is a metaphor for his drugs, and his want to spread the wealth around to those close to him. However, anyone who tries to interfere with his operation will feel the wrath of "all the bees." He also talks about being thankful for what he has and smoking large blunts, but having to be careful of the police. In the second verse, he speaks on his past as a young thug, the guns he has, the people who follow him, and how he is irreplaceable because of his unique style. He also vows to kill those who try to stop his grind, regardless of how sinful it may be, and that he won’t be anyone's "man" (i.e., subordinate or henchman).
