Young Thug’s 2016 cut “Slime Sh!t” has been used as evidence in his RICO case. According to ABC News, the 56-count indictment of the YSL affiliates includes rap lyrics from the Atlanta native between 2016 to 2021. Throughout the RICO case, the rapper’s attorneys have attempted to prevent lyrics from being used as evidence in the court. The determination to ban rap lyrics from courtrooms has amassed support from congress across the nation, with governer Gavin Newsom and Senators Jamaal Bailey and Brad Hoylman introducing laws in California and New York State, respectively. Young Thug's lyrics are used as alleged evidence in a RICO indictment.
