YFN Lucci and Young Thug dropped jaws and bars on Friday (September 26), when both Atlanta rappers released new albums featuring each other—an unexpected move that ended a years-long feud and signaled a reset for the city’s Hip-Hop scene.
The dual releases—YFN Lucci‘s Already Legend and Young Thug‘s UY Scuti—landed on the same day. But it wasn’t just the timing that caught attention.
Both albums included surprise guest appearances from the former rivals, creating buzz across social media and Hip-Hop circles.
Lucci addressed the long-awaited reconciliation during an interview with Fly Guy DC on SiriusXM, confirming that the collaboration was intentional and aimed at shifting the tone in Atlanta’s rap community.
“First off, we been through a lot,” he began. “Everybody lost people; we lost people. Most important s###, we lost our time. We had to be away from our family. So, coming home, it’s like, damn, what the hell can a n#### do to bro? We gone’ keep doing that s### and end up back in jail or one of our homies dead or one of us dead? Or we gone’ fix this s### and make this s### look good for the A?”
He added, “F### it, let’s do one. Some people are going to be mad, some people are going to be happy. But who cares? We got to g###### deal with the outcome of this s###.”
The two rappers had been locked in a bitter feud for years, one that spilled into diss tracks and street tension, culminating in separate high-profile legal battles.
Young Thug pleaded guilty in October 2024 to gang, drug and firearm charges tied to the YSL RICO case. He received time served and 15 years probation, and is currently under house arrest with a restriction from entering metro Atlanta for a decade.
Lucci was sentenced to 10 years in prison and 10 years probation after pleading guilty in January 2024 to gang-related charges stemming from a 2020 drive-by shooting.
He was released on January 31, 2025, after receiving credit for time served and a recommendation for early parole.
The decision to collaborate came after both artists returned from prison and reassessed what their feud had cost them—and what Atlanta’s Hip-Hop scene could gain from unity.
The rollout for the albums included light-hearted trolling between the two on social media. However, the message behind the music was serious. The features weren’t just for show. They were a deliberate move to steer Atlanta rap away from conflict and back toward creativity.
