Young Thug may not have called out Gunna by name, but fans are convinced the shade was loud and clear. As the UY SCUTI rapper gears up for his next album, a now-deleted tweet has reignited speculation about where things really stand between the former YSL collaborators. “If u a rapper and u a rat, u gotta just go gospel twin,” Thug tweeted before quickly wiping it from his timeline. Still, the damage was done, and the internet wasted no time connecting the dots.

The post was picked up by The Neighborhood Talk and reposted to Instagram, where the comment section lit up. Many saw the “rat” comment as a jab at Gunna, who accepted an Alford plea in the sweeping YSL RICO case that’s still unfolding. One commenter suggested Thug can’t seem to let go of the situation, while others pointed out that Gunna seems unfazed, focusing on his music and staying active in the spotlight.

Though Thug hasn’t publicly confirmed any tension, fans have been reading between the lines for months. In past interviews, he’s avoided questions about Gunna altogether—brushing them off with vague responses. Gunna, for his part, has continued to show love to Thug even after taking his plea deal, fueling mixed reactions from supporters of both artists.

The two were once considered one of hip-hop’s strongest duos, helping shape the Atlanta trap scene and the sound of a generation. But the legal troubles surrounding YSL have clearly shifted dynamics behind the scenes. Whether it’s a true falling out or just an online misunderstanding, the divide feels more visible than ever.

For now, it seems both are moving forward solo, Thug with his new music rollout, and Gunna with his own comeback. Whether they’ll ever clear the air remains to be seen. But one thing’s for sure: fans haven’t stopped watching.
