Young Thug Shuts Down Quavo’s Push for a Gunna Reunion: “How Uma Fix Some Sh** I Didn’t Break Qua?”
Quavo tried to play peacemaker for Atlanta — and Young Thug shut the whole thing down in public.
It started Thursday (Nov. 12) on The New York Times’ Popcast, where Offset explained why he never stopped rocking with Gunna after the YSL trial, even as other artists distanced themselves over snitching allegations. “I’m not a follower, right? I rock with who rock with me. I rock with who I rock with, no matter what,” Offset said. He called Gunna his brother, said the two still talk personally, and put the blame for Atlanta’s fractured scene on the fallout itself: “All that bullsh*t divided our city, and it made each artist pay for it. At the end of the day, we ran the whole hip-hop scene. Now it’s a gap.”
Offset backed the words up on wax, too — Gunna appears on his new album GMFU, which dropped Friday (Nov. 13). And with Quavo and Offset recently making amends themselves, Quavo decided to push the reunion one step further.
Quavo shared a clip from Offset’s interview to his Instagram Story, tagged Thug directly and wrote: “We all family @thuggerthugger1. We all some playas.” He added: “We gon fix it or let’s hit.”
Thug reposted Quavo’s message to his own Story — and answered it right on top of it:
“How Uma fix some sh** I didn’t break qua? I been a real man since day one, no n**** on this earth can tell u I lead them wrong or f***ed them over,” Thug wrote.
The rift goes back to the YSL RICO case. Thug and Gunna were arrested together in the spring of 2022, and that December, Gunna accepted an Alford plea deal and acknowledged in court that YSL was a gang — a moment Thug has treated as a betrayal ever since. Gunna has maintained that he never cooperated with prosecutors and never agreed to testify against anyone.
Thug took his own plea deal and came home on October 31, 2024, and the two have traded subliminal shots on social media and in their music ever since. As recently as September 2025, Thug said on the It’s Up There podcast that he still loves Gunna — but admitted he can’t look at him the way he did before the case.
Fans online split right down the middle: some are still begging for a Thug and Gunna record, while others say Quavo is pushing unity and Thug is standing on loyalty and accountability.
As of Saturday (Nov. 14), Gunna had not publicly responded to the exchange. So Atlanta’s biggest reunion stays on ice — and if Thug’s post is the final word, he’s not the one who’s going to thaw it.
