Recently, Young Thug took a moment to address the rumors surrounding his newly released album, BUSINESS IS BUSINESS. One particular track titled “Want Me Dead” caused a stir due to speculations about a possible reference to rap superstar Saweetie.
The lyrics in question state, “My nga ain’t even tryna hit sweetie. That bch turn me off, no kizzy,” which led to assumptions of a direct jab at Saweetie. However, Young Thug took to Twitter on the following day to set the record straight.
In his tweet, the YSL rapper clarified, “Her name is Saweetie. I said sweetie. #BusinessIsBusiness,” in an effort to dispel any misinterpretation. To provide further context, he added, “Also, that song is 6 years old.”
By sharing this information, Young Thug aimed to address the misunderstanding and provide a more accurate perspective on the matter.

While Thug dispelled the possibility of a Saweetie diss, another section of the album has elicited a similar reaction from listeners. Despite the fact that these songs were most likely recorded before the Atlanta rapper’s arrest in May 2022, fans can’t help but associate some of the lyrics with snitching allegations against Gunna.
Slime Season raps in “Jonesboro,” “Y’all n**gas just a bunch of dykes, f**king n**gas.” N**gas informed me, and he was my homie. “I can’t miss him, nobody feels him,” he says, with some taking it as a dig at Gunna.
BUSINESS IS BUSINESS managed to land on Apple Music’s top albums and songs charts despite the fact that Young Thug’s direct communication with his fanbase is restricted due to legal proceedings. While the initial excitement faded as fans scrutinized lyrics for veiled jabs, the rapper remained unmoved, dismissing allegations against Saweetie and leaving fans to ponder the rest.
