Young Thug is set for his first concert since he was released from jail last year after agreeing a plea deal with prosecutors in his RICO trial.
It was confirmed in March that the Atlanta born star will be one of the headliners at this year’s Lyrical Lemonade Summer Smash this weekend.
Now, Young Thug is hyping the event just days before it is supposed to take place with a video package released on social media that teases “THUGGER RETURNS”.
Thugger will close the event, performing in the headline slot on Sunday (June 22).
Elliot Montanez, director of operations for Lyrical Lemonade, said in a statement: “In a weird way, all of that happened with Summer Smash being one of the shows he was about to do before he went away for a little bit, and now Summer Smash being the first show [he’s doing] fresh out, it is full circle.
“I just think it’s interesting. I’m definitely glad that moment will be at Summer Smash, where fans will interact with him in person for the first time in a minute. But it’s a beautiful, full-circle moment.”
