Young Thug shares first verse since release on Lil Baby’s new album ‘WHAM’ – featuring Future, GloRilla and more
Lil Baby has released his new album ‘WHAM’, featuring Young Thug‘s first verse since being released from prison.
Released today (January 3), ‘WHAM’ – which is short for “Who Hard As Me” – is comprised of 15 tracks and sees the Atlanta rapper team up with the likes of GloRilla on ‘Readbone’, Rod Wave and Rylo Rodriguez on ‘Be Myself’, Travis Scott on ‘Stuff’ and 21 Savage on ‘Outfit’.
Most notably, Lil Baby is joined by Future and Young Thug on ‘Dum, Dumb, and Dumber’, which also marks the latter’s first verse since being released from jail last year. The rapper takes a moment to address his situation in the interlude prior to his verse, rapping: “I don’t even believe I was locked up, for real, for real / I was havin’ my way the whole time, fool, you know what I’m sayin’?.”
When I said these U.S bitches kinda bad I meant “bad girls” not ugly girls.. we got the prettiest girls on earth…

Thug took to his official X/Twitter account earlier today to clear up one of his bars on the track and explained: “When I said these U.S bitches kinda bad I meant “bad girls” not ugly girls.. we got the prettiest girls on earth…”
Back in 2022, Young Thug – real name Jeffery Lamar Williams – was arrested and spent two years in prison on gang-related charges. He was then charged with seven additional felonies. In November, the rapper was released from jail after pleading guilty to gang, drug and gun charges, ending the longest criminal trial in Georgia history.
The ‘Slime Language’ rapper was originally arrested alongside fellow rapper Gunna, who are both involved with the musical collective YSL (Young Stoner Life), which prosecutors accused of being “a criminal street gang”.
Both musicians had denied their charges, with the former having his bail denied three times.
‘WHAM’ marks Lil Baby’s first full-length release since 2022’s ‘It’s Only Me‘. In a three-star review of the LP, NME shared: “Fortunately, closer ‘Russian Roulette’ bookends the album with a sentiment that mirrors the record’s introductory track as Lil Baby peers into the farthest corners of his musicality. If the trimmings were removed from ‘It’s Only Me’, it might rival his previous releases – instead, it’s a few notches shy of greatness”
In other news, Young Thug recently made his first post-trial appearance in an Instagram video with T.I.
