Judge Rules Young Thug’s Lyrics Can Be Used Against Him In YSL RICO Trial

FULTON COUNTY, ATLANTA – A judge ruled on Thursday that rapper Young Thug’s song lyrics will be allowed as evidence under certain conditions in the Young Slime Life RICO trial.

Judge Ural Glanville said 17 sets of rap lyrics can be used by prosecutors as evidence in the gang trial against rapper Young Thug and his alleged associates. The judge also agreed that prosecutors must lay a foundation in order to use them.

The ruling came after hours of arguments from both sides.

Young Thug’s attorney of course argued that the rapper’s lyrics are expressions of art and freedom of speech.
