Prince Williams/WireImage Young Thug Isn’t Making Music For A Year, And Here’s Why Young Thug always has some pretty interesting reasoning to his actions, but his latest announcement might take the cake. After announcing just a few days prior that he wants fans to call him by his new name, “SEX,” he’s now saying that he’s taking a year off music–and he explained why he’s doing so. Thugger told fans that he isn’t planning on releasing any music until 2019 out of respect for his brother. “I’ve got a deaf brother,” he told Hypebeast during an interview. “I’ve got a brother who can’t hear or talk, so I want to act deaf for a year. So I ain’t going to put out no music this year.” The rapper explained that he plans to return with his highly-anticipated Hi-Tunes project after that stint of not releasing anything saying, “in 2019, I’m going to put out probably Hi-Tunes. ” It’s pretty common knowledge that Thug has been in the studio a lot lately, so it’ll be interesting to see if he stays with not releasing music, or if he comes back sooner than 2019. You can watch the whole minute-long interview below to hear Thugger’s thoughts on fashion and not releasing any music out of respect for his brother.
