Rapper 21 Savage has slammed fans who were unhappy about Young Thug and YFN Lucci’s surprising reconciliation. The two Atlanta rappers, known for their long-standing beef, recently collaborated on the track “Whadda Up Jesus” from Young Thug’s latest album, *Uy Scuti*.
On September 25, 21 Savage took to Instagram to criticize those who refused to accept the newfound peace between the two artists. He wrote:

**The Origin of the Beef**
Young Thug and YFN Lucci’s feud dates back to 2017. It started with a social media quarrel over the legendary rapper Tupac Shakur. Young Thug posted on social media:
*”I dropped E.B.B.T.G. on 2PACS bday because I’m the #NewPac. I feel like I’m the thug he didn’t get to become.”*
This statement, referring to his 2017 EP *Easy Breezy Beautiful Thugger Girls*, did not sit well with Lucci. In response, YFN Lucci pointed out that Tupac “never wore a dress,” alluding to Young Thug’s choice to pose in a dress on the cover of his 2016 mixtape *Jeffery*.
The back-and-forth continued with threats and diss tracks. Young Thug warned Lucci to “be humble” or face serious consequences, while Lucci fired back with his single “Like Pac,” further fueling the tension.

**Escalation and Continued Feuding**
In 2018, the feud cooled down temporarily when both artists featured on T.I.’s album *Dime Trap*. However, Young Thug reignited the rivalry during an Instagram Live session in March 2019, claiming he would “slap the hell” out of YFN Lucci.
Lucci responded on social media, with his friend Sauce Walka also joining the beef. The situation escalated further when Sauce Walka mentioned Young Thug’s wife, Jerrika Karlae, in an Instagram story, saying her husband “ain’t nun.” Young Thug continued to diss Lucci on his 2019 album *So Much Fun*.

**A New Chapter: Collaboration and Reconciliation**
On September 26, Young Thug and YFN Lucci officially ended their long-standing feud by appearing on each other’s latest albums. Lucci was featured on “Whadda Up Jesus” in Young Thug’s *Uy Scuti* — his first studio album release since concluding his RICO trial.
Meanwhile, Young Thug appeared on Lucci’s track “Still Waiting” from his new album *Already Legend*. In the song, Thugger also paid tribute to Lucci’s mother, who testified in his RICO trial, rapping:
*”Lucci told me play it safe, you know all of the pigs home / She kept it so solid on the stand, shout-out to mom.”*

**What Led to the Reconciliation?**
In an interview with FlyGuyDC on SiriusXM, YFN Lucci explained why the two rappers decided to bury the hatchet after years of hostility:
*”First off, we been through a lot. Everybody lost people; we lost people. Most important sh*t, 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***a do to bro? We gone keep doing that sh*t and end up back in jail or one of our homies dead or one of us dead? Or we gone fix this sh*t and make this sh*t look good for the A?”*
He added that they chose to collaborate regardless of how fans reacted—whether happy or upset.
