Young Thug Signs Record Deal with Cash Money Records


Since dropping his gritty street bangers ‘Stoner’ and ‘Danny Glover,’ Young Thug has been courted by a few rap labels including Future’s Freebandz imprint. However, it appears that the Atlanta rhymer has signed with one of the biggest rap empires in hip-hop.


According to Mass Appeal, Young Thug has all but confirmed that he’s now an artist on Birdman’s Cash Money Records.


While attending the festivities at NBA All-Star Weekend in New Orleans, YT was asked if he signed with the storied label.


“Yeah. I signed,” he told Mass Appeal journalist Brian Padilla.


Young Thug went on his Facebook page to confirm his alliance with YMCMB. He posted:



Also, if you look at Birdman’s Instagram page, they are several photos of Young Thug getting cozy with the CEO and hanging out with his fellow labelmates. So it’s plausible that a deal has been finalized but the ink hasn’t dried as of yet.


If the news is true, signing with Cash Money Records sounds like a logical choice for the bubbling artist. Since Nicki Minaj bodied his ‘Danny Glover‘ track, could we see YT and Queen Barbz on a song together?


In the meantime, Young Thug is currently on a promotional tour in support of his latest mixtape ‘Black Portland.’ He’s also catching some slander on his Instagram page for his, uh, unique fashion sense and questionable photos.
