Young Thug

Jeffery Lamar Williams (born August 16, 1991), known by the stage name Young Thug, is an American rapper from Atlanta. 
Initially starting out with a number of independent mixtapes, Williams' career took off after signing with Gucci Mane's 1017 Records. Though yet to release a studio album, he has released a number of successful commercial mixtapes to date. 
== Career ==
Beginning to rap from a young age, Williams released three debut mixtapes from the I Came from Nothing series in 2011 and 2012. He soon caught the attention of successful rapper Gucci Mane and in 2013 signed to his label 1017 Records. He then released his first mixtape from the label 1017 Thug which received positive reviews. Williams soon became known for his original style. 1017 Thug was placed on numerous lists of the best mixtapes of the year.
Williams' fast rise in popularity lead to controversy over his label, especially after talks with Future and Birdman over signing to their respective labels. It was also announced he had signed with 300 Entertainment, though he stayed signed to 1017. Williams planned to release his debut album to be named Carter 6 after Lil Wayne's album series, however Wayne was unhappy about the tribute. Williams then announced it would be renamed Barter 6 and was released as a mixtape.
In 2015, Williams announced his debut album would be titled Hy!£UN35. First though, he released two well received mixtapes Slime Season and Slime Season 2. In 2016, Williams appeared on Kanye West's The Life of Pablo and released mixtapes I'm Up and Slime Season 3. In August 2016, Williams released another mixtape Jeffery and soon after started his own record imprint YSL Records.
In 2017, Williams released a mixtape titled Beautiful Thugger Girls. In October, he released a collaborative mixtape with Future titled Super Slimey which made it to number two on the Billboard 200. In April 2018 he released an EP Hear No Evil.
