Young Thug has finally weighed in on the famous “20 v. 1” Drake beef that involved Future and Metro Boomin, among many others, teaming up against the Canadian superstar — and he wants it to end.
Thugger’s X account posted a message on Friday (October 18) that seemed to call for a truce.

“@Drake @1future @MetroBoomin we all bruddas,” he wrote. “Music aint the same without us collabin.”
Future seemed to agree with the sentiment, reposting the message to his own X account.

Thug’s call for peace is notable because the Drake-versus-everyone beef exploded into public view this past March with Kendrick Lamar’s verse on a Future/Metro song, “Like That.” Drake and Metro spent some time shortly afterwards going back and forth as well.
Drake has been publicly supportive of Thug while the latter is on trial for racketeering charges. On October 10 he a posted selfie on his Instagram Stories of himself wearing a hoodie and cap from Thugger’s Spider clothing brand. Drizzy wrote: “I ain’t talking to talk man I really put [bread emoji] on the [briefcase emoji] 3 Jeff.”

Drizzy’s comment suggests that he has been contributing money towards Young Thug’s legal defense, something he has done before with controversial Toronto rapper Top5.
Meanwhile, Thug’s long-running trial continues to take surprising turns.
A former Fulton County corrections officer has been accused of collaborating with one of Thug’s fellow defendants.
According to WSB-TV, 31-year-old Karmen Bailey has been charged with accepting $17,000 in bribes, including from Marquavious Huey’s family, in exchange for delivering drugs and other contraband to inmates at the Fulton County Jail.

The case against Bailey came to a head when officials searched through her phone and found evidence of Apple Pay transactions and communications with Huey’s mother and brother. She has been charged with four counts of violation of oath, two counts of bribery, and two counts of obtaining/procuring/giving inmates prohibited items without authorization.
The Fulton County Sherriff’s Office also confirmed that Huey’s mother and brother, Malissa and Jermiyah Huey have been arrested, though their charges were not made public.
