Lil Baby recently opened up about a harrowing near-miss regarding Young Thug’s legal troubles, revealing that he was at Thug’s house on the day of his arrest in May 2022. During a conversation with Lil Yachty on the “A Safe Place” podcast, Baby expressed gratitude for having left two hours before the incident, stating, “I could’ve been with him. Thank God I just happened to leave two hours early.”
Reflecting on the situation, Lil Baby noted how it affected him deeply, saying, “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.” He emphasized the personal connection he has with Young Thug, describing him as more than just a rap peer, but as an everyday friend.
The conversation also touched on the strained relationship between Lil Baby and Gunna, who was arrested alongside Young Thug in the YSL RICO case. Gunna’s acceptance of a plea deal has created a rift between him and many of his peers, including Lil Baby. When asked about his relationship with Gunna, Baby candidly stated, “We don’t got no relationship. Nope.”
Lil Baby made it clear that he would not participate in a studio session with Gunna if Young Thug requested it, saying, “I don’t see that happening.” Despite the tension, he denied that his lyrics in the song “350” were aimed at Gunna, stating that the narrative created by the internet was misleading.
