Young Thug Attorney in RICO Case Says THUG Means “Truly Humbled Under God”

Young Thug said what gang? He’s a man of God doing good for his community and his loved ones.

Check out the video below of his attorney Brian Steel explaining what the moniker “THUG” means as it relates to Young Thug’s stage name. He also claims the rapper is a studio gangster who did not live out his raps. According to Steel, “Pushing P” stands for “Pushing Positivity”.

“He is not running a criminal enterprise on Cleveland Avenue to gather money and power,” Steel says, arguing that by 2014, the rapper, whose legal name is Jeffery Williams, was a superstar who wouldn’t have had anything to gain and everything to lose by running on the street. “He is not sitting there telling people to kill people. He doesn’t need their money. He’s worth tens of millions of dollars.”

Jeffery Lamar Williams, is charged with violating Georgia’s anti-racketeering and gang laws, among other things. He was indicted last year along with more than two dozen other people, five of whom are set to stand trial with him.

BMF: Chad JBo Brown Re-Arrested on Federal Drug Charges in St Louis

BMF affiliate and former Big Meech right hand man Chad JBo Brown was re-arrested on federal drugs charges in his home city of St. Louis for the alleged distribution of methamphetamine, fentanyl, and cocaine as well as fraud. The alleged fraud is based on the receipt of a Covid 19 PPP loan intended for struggling businesses and employees.

JBo was also arrested during the initial Black Mafia Family bust that landed Demetrius ‘Big Meech’ and his brother Terry ‘Southwest T’ Flenory and his former girlfriend Tonesa ‘Toni’ Welch (and a host of others) in federal prison. The federal indictments stemmed from a massive DEA raid on the drug organization back in 2005. He ended up serving 11 years on a 15-20 year plea deal for those charges.

According to news reports, more than two dozen Black Mafia Family affiliates were also arrested last week in connection to various charges after a bust recovered a large amount of drugs, firearms and cash. As of today a total of 34 people have been charged in the investigation.

BMF: The Tonesa Welch Story is Now Streaming on BET+

The riveting life story of Tonesa Welch has finally hit the small screen and I can’t wait to watch it.

Tonesa — or just “Toni” — is most known as The First Lady of the one of the biggest drug trafficking organizations, BMF.

With the wildly huge success of 50 Cent’s television series, “BMF” which chronicles the rise of the Black Mafia Family kingpins Terry “Southwest T” & Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory — Welch, who dated Terry before and during his rise to power, felt the series did not accurately depict her life and character. Welch has previously spoken out about how producers of the Starz television series never reached out to get her side of story before using her likeness for the show.
