Flouting hip-hop conventions while defying gender and sexuality stereotypes, Young Thug has been one of the most distinctive contemporary rap artists since attaining his chart debut with "Stoner" (2014). The eccentric rapper's first of many gold- and platinum-certified recordings arrived amid a barrage of mixtapes that led to the Top Ten entries JEFFERY (2016) and Beautiful Thugger Girls (2017), and eventually his chart-topping debut studio album, So Much Fun (2019). A keen collaborator, Thug has been featured on dozens of tracks, including pop hits such as Camila Cabello's "Havana," Childish Gambino's Grammy-winning "This Is America," and Post Malone's "Goodbyes," and he has hit the upper reaches of the charts with the co-headlining commercial mixtapes Super Slimey (with Future) and Slime & B (with Chris Brown), as well as the crew compilation Slime Language 2. In 2021, he offered his second chart-topping studio album, Punk.
