A Timeline of Young Thug and Gunna’s Tumultuous Relationship

While Young Thug and Gunna used to be the closest of friends, there has been an insurmountable amount of tension brewing between the two Atlanta rappers in recent months.

Since being released following his YSL RICO case in Georgia, Young Thug has continuously thrown jabs at his former labelmate Gunna over allegations that he cooperated with law enforcement to secure his freedom. While the issues between the two rappers haven’t played out in the public view much, Thug did admit to GQ that relations between them weren’t what they used to be.

“I know everybody wonders [what our relationship is like now],” Thugga noted in April, before saying: “I don’t know.”

He did not elaborate further, leaving more questions than answers. As fans started to accept that maybe they’d never fully learn about what happened between Wunna and Thugga, things finally came to a serious head on Tuesday (Sept. 2). Alleged leaked phone calls of Young Thug speaking to 21 Savage from jail hit the internet, all but confirming that the once-fruitful relationship between Gunna and Young Thug was no more.

So the question remains: How did such close ties between two Atlanta stars unravel so quickly? From the pair’s early days before the rise of YSL to subliminal disses and plenty of tweet-and-deletes, there are a lot of breadcrumbs leading us to this very moment. Here is the full breakdown of Gunna and Young Thug’s relationship and a look at how things got to this point.
