While Young Thug’s arrest and incarceration earlier this year has resulted in a new legal battle with a live music company, it has also pushed back a court hearing in relation to an existing legal battle with another live entertainment firm.
Which is to say, a dispute between the rapper and live giant AEG now won’t get to court until October 2023.The existing dispute between Young Thug – real name Jeffery Williams – and AEG relates to a 2017 agreement.
In late 2020, AEG complained that Williams had been involved in concerts promoted by other companies, despite it paying a $5 million advance in 2017 in order to gain exclusive rights in relation to the rapper’s shows.Not only that, but Williams had put up some of his intellectual property rights as collateral in that deal which meant that – now he was allegedly in breach of contract – AEG might have a claim to the rapper’s trademark, his Young Stoner Life brand, and even a cut of his music publishing income.Initially reps for Williams were busy trying to negotiate a settlement with AEG.
However, with no deal being done, the dispute was heading to court this coming October. But then Williams was arrested in the US state of Georgia in May and denied bail.In the criminal case, Williams is accused of co-founding a gang that went on to commit murders, shootings and carjackings.
