In the world of hip-hop, controversies and heated exchanges are nothing new. Yet, when Young Thug’s father, Jeffrey Williams Sr., directed some harsh words towards rapper Lil Baby, it ignited a feud that has captured everyone’s attention.

The saga began when Young Thug’s dad, during an interview with journalist Infamous Sylvia on December 19, addressed Lil Baby’s comments about Gunna’s alleged snitching.

Williams Sr. didn’t mince his words, declaring, “He needs to shut the f*ck up, ’cause he don’t know what’s going on.”

He went on to question Lil Baby’s loyalty, asking if he had ever attended a court date to support Gunna, also known as Slime.

“When have y’all gone to a court date to support Slime?…Go on their social media pages and say, ‘Why in the f*ck haven’t you been to the courthouse to support your dude?’ And I guarantee you won’t get an answer,” Williams Sr. emphasized.

Lil Baby, not one to back down from a confrontation, responded in a now-deleted comment under @TheShadeRoom’s Instagram post. His reply was short but enigmatic, simply stating, “IFKYK” (if you know, you know). This cryptic response sent shockwaves through the hip-hop community, leaving fans with more questions than answers. What exactly does “IFKYK” mean? Why did Lil Baby choose this mysterious route instead of addressing the issue head-on?

The feud between Lil Baby and Young Thug’s camp centers around Gunna’s plea deal in the YSL RICO case. Gunna made headlines when he admitted that YSL was a violent street gang during the trial. Lil Baby seemed to take a dig at Gunna in a song snippet over the summer, and a video emerged in December showing Lil Baby saying, “F*ck the rats” during a performance of their hit collaboration, “Drip Too Hard.” These incidents fueled the fire of controversy and brought the issue to the forefront of hip-hop discourse.

While it remains unclear what Lil Baby’s comment truly signifies, it has undeniably intensified the feud and kept it at the forefront of hip-hop news. As the industry watches and speculates on the unfolding drama, one thing is for sure: the hip-hop world will continue to be a hotbed of intrigue and conflict.
