Lil Baby Reveals He ‘Could’ve Been’ Arrested With Young Thug: ‘I Was At His House’

Lil Baby came uncomfortably close to Young Thug‘s jail situation, revealing that he narrowly avoided being caught up in the May 2022 arrest involving the YSL rapper.

At one point in his conversation with Lil Yachty on his A Safe Place podcast last week, Baby revealed that he was actually at Thug’s house the day he was apprehended.

“What people don’t know and I don’t even tell people – I could’ve been with him,” he said. “I was at his house the same day. Thank God I just happened to leave two hours early. That’ll fuck your head up more than anything. Like damn I gotta see bro go through this [and] that shit really could have been me.

“A n-gga had to change they whole life around. [This is] not even my rap peer. This is my everyday [friend]. These n-ggas I grew up with.”

Gunna was also arrested as part of the YSL RICO case and infamously  released last year after accepting a plea deal – which has since removed him from the good graces of Young Thug, Lil Baby and many more of their peers.

Appearing on a recent episode of Charlamagne Tha God’s Out of Context series on YouTube, Baby didn’t mince words when asked about the status of the relationship with his former collaborator.

“We don’t got no relationship. Nope,” he confirmed.

The veteran radio host then asked Baby if he’d join a studio session with Gunna if Thug asked him to.

“I don’t see that happening. I don’t know what nobody else will do, but as far as me,” he replied.

Baby did, however, deny that he was dissing Gunna and calling him a rat on “350.”

“That’s just the internet and what they gonna create,” he said. “I talk about rats in every song I have since I started rapping. So now you know they just create a narrative and I don’t even be talking about a n-gga.”

Released last December, “350” finds Baby rapping: “I know one day it’s gon’ hit me, bro ain’t never coming back/ Ain’t never say nothing ’bout it, n-gga, you know you a rat.”

He also appeared to take subliminal shots at Gunna in a song snippet that surfaced months earlier, in which he also defended Young Thug: “Pussy n-ggas taking pleas/ I know Slime ain’t happy.”
