Young Thug’s Reaction
Young Thug, also known as Jeffrey Williams, responded to the controversy with a series of tweets on X. The rapper dismissed claims of a romantic relationship with Sayed, suggesting that the conversation in the leaked video was taken out of context.
“Man me and twin was talking bout some whole other serious sh*t,” Thug tweeted, adding, “Never have, never will [be romantically involved].” He characterized their bond as platonic, stressing that his focus remains elsewhere.
