Young Thug Facing Civil Lawsuit
Young Thug may be in custody for felony racketeering charges, but it’s not stopping lawsuits from being filed against him.
A-1 Concert Entertainment claims Thugger’s company, YSL Touring LLC, failed to pay back a concert deposit after the show was canceled due to his arrest earlier this year.
According to reports, A-1 claims they gave the rapper a $150,000 deposit to secure his service for a concert performance set for June.
The owner of A-1, A’lencio Graham, alleges he reached out to YSL seeking reimbursement and was “assured that he would receive a refund of the funds.” However, A-1 is still waiting on the return.
Young Thug Breached Contract
A-1 is claiming The “Ski” rapper breached their contract by not returning the deposit if Thugger canceled the show.
According to reports, A-1’s lawyers gave more detailed information regarding the breach, writing:
“Defendants breached the agreement by canceling the performance on May 9, 2022, when Williams was arrested on numerous felonies charges.”
They continued:
“Defendants breached the agreement when they failed to reimburse Plaintiff the $150,000 deposit paid.”
Young Thug’s legal team has not responded to the suit.
