YSL artist Strick has just revealed that he’ll be teasing some new music featuring Young Thug during his upcoming headline tour.
The North Carolina native’s new album will feature guest spots from Travis Scott, James Blake, as well as Thugga. The Who The F*ck Is Strick? tour marks the first featuring Strick as a headliner, coming off the success of his supporting role on Kid Cudi‘s To The Moon tour last year.

While Strick’s upcoming album and tour will feature some of Young Thug’s vocals — which is a good thing — the “Stoner” rapper (real name Jeffrey Williams) gave his fans a bit of a scare earlier this week when he was rushed to the hospital with what his lawyers called a “medical emergency.”
WSB-TV, the Atlanta ABC affiliate, reported that Thugga had a medical emergency while he was in court on Thursday (May 11), and the proceedings were halted as he was rushed to a nearby hospital.

“I know he’s had some difficulty of a similar sort at the Cobb County Jail a few months ago, and so I’m obviously concerned about his wellbeing,” his attorney, Keith Adams, told Judge Ural Glanville.
“Mr. Williams is sleep deprived, mandated to wake up on court days between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. and not having more than five hours of sleep per night. By the end of the week, Mr. Williams is fighting to pay attention to the goings on in his case.”
Due to medical privacy laws, details about Young Thug’s illness were not released to the public. However, Judge Glanville did grant Adams permission to visit his client in the hospital.
Prior to this latest incident, the Thugga’s lawyers petitioned the courts to let him out on bond, arguing that the conditions in the prison were less-than-ideal. Their petition was denied.

But at 5:45 p.m. ET on Thursday (May 11), Young Thug’s lawyers released a statement claiming that their client was now “fine” and ready to proceed with the trial.
“Jeffery was not feeling well earlier, and the sheriff’s office had him seen by medical personnel to ensure that he was okay,” Adams told Vulture in a statement. “We expect to be back in court tomorrow as we continue to fight these charges and work toward getting him home.”
