Rapper Young Thug, whose real name is Jeffery Lamar Williams, is scheduled to go on trial for racketeering and gang-related charges. Prosecutors allege that Young Thug co-founded a violent street gang called Young Slime Life (YSL) and used his music and social media to promote its criminal activities. The indictment includes lyrics from his songs that prosecutors claim are evidence of his involvement with the gang. Fellow rapper Gunna, whose real name is Sergio Kitchens, and other associates have already pleaded guilty to charges related to the case. The trial is expected to last for months.
Atlanta rap star Young Thug changed his plea to guilty Thursday in Georgia’s longest-running criminal trial, but averted prison time with probation, bringing a stunning close to a chapter of a case that has riveted court watchers for nearly two years.

The plea change by the rapper, whose real name is Jeffery Lamar Williams, appeared on the brink of not happening after Superior Court Judge Paige Whitaker asked if he agreed to a nonnegotiated plea. That means prosecutors and the defense could not come to a sentencing deal, and that the judge would ultimately decide his punishment.
