Young Thug is focused on rebuilding and expanding the Young Stoner Life Records roster following the conclusion of his lengthy legal battle, but recent comments from Nine Vicious have sparked questions about one of the label’s reported signings.
During a recent livestream with streamer PlaqueBoyMax, Young Thug spoke about his plans for the future of YSL and claimed that Nine Vicious remains part of the label. According to Thug, rumors that the artist had parted ways with YSL were inaccurate.
The Atlanta rapper went a step further, stating that he had re-signed Nine Vicious and invested millions of dollars into the deal. The comments appeared to be an attempt to shut down speculation regarding the artist’s relationship with the label.
However, the situation quickly became more complicated.
Shortly after reports of Thug’s remarks surfaced online, Nine Vicious reportedly responded in the comment section of a social media post covering the story. His response strongly suggested that he disagreed with Thug’s version of events, prompting fans to question the true nature of their business relationship.
Neither artist has publicly expanded on the disagreement since the exchange, leaving supporters to speculate about what may be happening behind the scenes.
The tension is notable because Young Thug also revealed that a new YSL compilation project is currently in development. During the livestream, he explained that he is actively working on a label-wide release that would showcase both established and emerging artists affiliated with Young Stoner Life Records.
Given the uncertainty surrounding Nine Vicious’ status, fans are now wondering whether he will appear on the project at all.
This isn’t the first time questions have been raised regarding the artist’s connection to YSL. Last year, Nine Vicious made a series of cryptic comments on social media that many interpreted as criticism of the label and its internal dynamics. While he did not directly accuse anyone of wrongdoing, the posts hinted at dissatisfaction and a lack of support within his professional circle.
As of now, no official release date has been announced for the upcoming YSL compilation album, and the details surrounding its roster remain unclear.
Meanwhile, Young Thug continues to look toward the future. The rapper recently expressed interest in signing Kodak Black, who recently completed his contractual obligations with Capitol Records following the release of Kodak The Blessing. Thug even suggested he would be willing to offer Kodak whatever it takes to bring him into the YSL fold.
For now, however, much of the conversation remains centered on the apparent disconnect between Young Thug and Nine Vicious. Until either artist provides further clarification, fans will be left guessing about the true state of their relationship and what it means for the future of YSL.
