Young Thug Issues Apology to GloRilla After Jail Call Remarks

Hip-hop is no stranger to controversy, and its latest flashpoint centers on GloRilla and Young Thug. In recent weeks, leaked jail call recordings surfaced online, allegedly capturing the Atlanta rapper disparaging fellow artists. Among the remarks, he reportedly singled out GloRilla, describing her looks in unflattering terms—a jab that swiftly drew her into the broader storm surrounding his ongoing legal battles.

For GloRilla, the attention arrived without warning. She had been in the headlines for her relationship with NBA forward Brandon Ingram, yet the leaked audio shifted the focus sharply. The clips also revived long-running allegations of snitching against Young Thug, raising new questions about his standing in both the courtroom and the culture.

GloRilla, rather than sidestepping the moment, responded with a sharp retort on Twitter: “Mind you dis da same n***a blowing my phone up to ask what color my eyes is lmaooo.” The post ricocheted across social platforms, with fans dissecting both her wit and the complicated undercurrents between two prominent figures in rap.

Young Thug Apologizes After Leaked Audio

Not long after, Young Thug offered an apology that caught many off guard. “@GloTheofficial first of all I’m sorry to u for my words and I honestly don’t think ur ugly at all, I was speaking from jail just having a hard time with life.. I don’t like bashing girls and hardly ever did.. I’m sorry to u twin.” His message — equal parts contrition and explanation — revealed an unusually vulnerable side of an artist who rarely concedes ground in public.

It was the second time in recent weeks he had addressed leaked audio directly. Earlier, he pushed back against chatter linked to his disputes with OTF and Lil Durk, while other instances of interrogation footage had drawn more evasive replies. The exchange with GloRilla, however, carried a sharper personal edge, underscoring both his volatility and his instinct to manage a narrative that seems to shift by the day.

For now, the dust has settled. Still, with additional recordings reportedly in circulation, the open question remains: will Young Thug continue to confront them one by one, or will he let the noise dissipate as he turns his focus back to the music?
