Young Thug Talks Sexuality, Lil Wayne, and JAY-Z's NFL Deal
Fresh off the release of his debut album So Much Fun, Young Thug stopped by “Big Boy’s Neighborhood” on REAL 92.3.
During the 80-minute interview, the “Surf” rapper opened up about a variety of hot topics including his sexuality. “People judge me and people say gay, but at one point, I probably had more hoes…It’s serious,” he said. “If people think that I’m gay, they already misjudged. I’m the straightest man in the world…I hate guys. What the f**k are you talking about? I’m not even having no threesome with no ni**a.”

He also addressed his beef with his idol-turned-rival Lil Wayne. “I don’t think that ni**a like me,” he laughed. “I don’t know why though.”
When pressed further, he responded, “I just think it’s because he’s been with Birdman his whole life. He’s just so spoiled to the point where he’s really spoiled. He’s been a millionaire, he’s been a superstar since he was nine years old. So he don’t know nothing but his way. The first thing that don’t go his way, it don’t have nothing in the world to do with me.”

Big Boy also asked Thug about his relationship with Rich Homie Quan. “We don’t have no problem. I don’t think we can be like how we used to be,” he said. “He already did some bullshit, he already know my heart so I’m too pure. Once you do that, it’s like no.”
While he forgives him (“I always forgive”), he said they have no plans to collaborate again. “It’s nothing about music. It’s 100 percent personal,” he said. “Now you probably can never get the blessing of having me on the song and I can never get the blessing of having you on the song again.”

Plus, Thugger weighed in on JAY-Z’s NFL partnership. “I think JAY-Z the GOAT. If I was a billionaire and I had the power they had, I’ll try to own a football team just to let the black brother play on the team,” he said.
He’s hopeful that the Roc Nation boss has a bigger plan that will involve Colin Kaepernick. “This guy life is a setup. This is the trailer. It’s gonna happen 100 percent.”
