Young Thug & Gunna Named In 56-Count Indictment
Rappers Young Thug and Gunna have been named in a 56-count indictment filed Monday, May 9, in Fulton County, Georgia.
According to WSBTV Reporter Michael Seiden, the 56-count indictment includes 28 other Young Slime Life (YSL) members on numerous charges including “murder, armed robbery, and participation in criminal street gang activity.”
Young Thug, born Jeffery Lamar Williams, has been taken into custody and is being held at Fulton County Jail. Williams is being charged with conspiracy to violate the racketeer-influenced and corrupt organizations act (RICO) and participation in criminal street gang activity, while Gunna, born Sergio Giavanni Kitchens, is being charged with one count of conspiring to violate RICO.
Prosecutors have alleged that two associates of YSL, CHRISTIAN EPPINGER and ANTONIO SUMLIN, worked to get permission from Young Thug to allegedly make a 2nd attempt to murder YFN Lucci, while he’s jailed in Fulton County.
In March, it was reported that YFN Lucci was stabbed by another inmate while on a video call with someone from the outside. According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Lucci stated that there was a bounty on his head and he would voluntarily go into 24-hour confinement as he feared his life.
YFN Lucci, born Rayshawn Bennett, has been in custody since 2021 after he was named in a 105-count indictment where he is charged with racketeering, violating the state’s anti-gang law, felony murder, aggravated assault, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony.
“The YFN studio located on West Peachtree Street in Atlanta is a central point for the group and a notorious stronghold. YFN has continued to attract additional associates as Bennett gained notoriety,” according to the indictment.
Earlier today, GossipOfTheCity reported an alleged altercation took place between August Alsina and Tory Lanez outside of a club.
After a few hours went by, August Alsina took to Instagram a picture of himself with a bloodied mouth, seemingly confirming that an altercation did occur. Though he did not address Tory Lanez by name, he referred to the artist as a Leprechaun and wrote the following caption: “As I’m exiting the building after the show last night, a 4’11 sized leprechaun ran down on me w/ 8 oversized security n*ggas.”
Alsina also confirmed GossipOfTheCity’s report that Lanez was mad he did not dap him up. “There was never a ‘fight!’ Simply an assault,” said Alsina.
Tory Lanez has denied that an altercation took place stating, “I don’t know what everybody talking about… But I’ve been in the studio… I’m not in anything negative… I’ve been working on my myself… and being a better person.”
Riding on the momentum of his performance at Rolling Loud: Toronto, Tory Lanez returns to announce his new album, Sorry 4 What.
Supported by the single, “It Doesn’t Matter,” Tory Lanez upcoming project is scheduled to drop on Friday, Sept. 30. Sorry 4 What will serve as a follow-up to his 2021 album, Alone At Prom. The news comes shortly after Lanez received a new court date in the Megan Thee Stallion felony assault case. “Trial start date continued to between Nov. 28 and Dec. 8 over objection of prosecutors bc Tory’s lawyer in an arbitration,” said Rolling Stone reporter, Nancy Dillon.

On Monday, Sept. 12, video surfaced of rapper Pnb Rock laid on the ground of a Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles establishment covered in blood. According to bystanders who posted the video footage, the “Selfish” rapper had reportedly been shot after a robbery gone bad at a Los Angeles’ Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles.
The video is too gruesome to share, but has been going viral on social media. However, it has been confirmed that the rapper was with his girlfriend, Stephanie Sibounheuang, at the time of the shooting.
“The victim was sitting at a table eating with a female witness when he was approached by the suspect,” said Los Angeles police Capt. Kelly Muniz. “The suspect then brandished a firearm and demanded his property. … The suspect then fired multiple rounds and then appears to remove some property, to what extent we don’t know at this time.”
As of 8:30 PM, the Los Angeles Times has confirmed that PnB Rock, born Rakim Allen, passed away just before 2 PM PT/5 PM ET.
He was 30 years-old.
Our prayers are with his family and friends.
