After being released from jail last October, Young Thug has hit the ground running. He’s featured on projects like Lil Baby’s WHAM and has found himself in a few love triangles. However, despite his return to the spotlight, the rapper is still grappling with the fallout from the May 2022 YSL raid that dramatically impacted his life—and he’s eager to reclaim his personal belongings.
Young Thug want his cars, $150K cash, and jewelry returned
Young Thug’s legal team recently filed a petition seeking the return of items seized during the raid, including a 2022 Porsche 911, a 2022 Chevrolet Corvette, two Mercedes-Benz AMG GTs, valuable jewelry, firearms, and $149,426 in cash. A civil hearing to address the matter was scheduled for February 21 but was ultimately canceled.
Instead of the anticipated discussion, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Paige Reese Whitaker signed a consent order on February 21, directing several pieces of Thug’s jewelry to be released to Rafaello & Company Inc., presumably the jeweler who made them.
The pieces to be released include:
- Rolex Datejust watch engraved with “King Slime”
- Diamond cross pendant
- Necklace with circular and square green jewels
- Diamond double-row tennis necklace
- Two diamond stud earrings
- Diamond ring with 13 diamonds on band (potentially this one)
The Rolex Datejust watch and necklace with circular and square green jewels might be the same as those pictured in a post by @rafaelloandco from 2021, flexing pieces he did for Thug.
Rather than immediately going back into Thug’s jewelry collection, the State ordered the pieces to be released to Manubir S. Arora (the counsel representing Rafaello & Company Inc.). They will hold onto the property, and the order suggests Rafaello & Company Inc. and the rapper have reached a private agreement that doesn’t involve the courts.
The consent order only covers the specific jewelry mentioned above, so what’s next for his other personal belongings is still unclear. Nevertheless, fans are thrilled to have the rapper back, especially as he continues advocating for the release of other artists, like Pooh Shiesty.
