Artists throughout the world of hip-hop have been speaking out as of late following the police killing of George Floyd. As many of you should know by now, there have been protests raging all across the country and the police are ramping up their efforts to keep people from protesting for longer periods of time. It's clear that people want a real change to take place and at this point, it seems like we are going through a revolution of sorts.
Young Thug is one of the latest artists to speak out about the protests and late last night, he shared a poignant quote about what's been happening. "They'd rather let the nation burn than arrest 3 of their own," the quote read. Thugger offered some commentary of his own saying "Crazy but true."

Since the start of the protests, many fans have been demanding for more artists to stand up and use their platforms for good. Young Thug has heard these requests loud and clear as he continues to post about Floyd and the injustices that cops commit every single day.
While Young Thug has never been a political artist, it is definitely refreshing to see him delve into politics and stand up for what he thinks is right.
