While Thugger has been buzzing for a while here in Atlanta the rest of the states have finally caught on to the Young Thug wave. Complex recently caught up with Thug and he discloses joint projects with Rich Homie Quan and possibly Chief Keef, already having songs recorded with Kanye West, and the rumored Freebandz deal.

Thugger on working with Kanye:

I mean, I went to his house and we did a couple of songs. The fact that I was [making songs] so fast amazed him too, because he doesn’t see a lot of people who rap like that. I don’t really rap with a lot of people [because] everyone raps the same way. When I first heard he wanted to know who I was and do songs, I was smiling ear to ear like a clown.

On Yeezus:

I’m a big fan of everything that guy does because of who he is. It’s not even in my league to talk about it, cause I’m that that nigga too. So he can talk about him and I’ll talk about me.

On the unofficial remixes to “Stoner”:

The mindset came from watching myself and niggas where I’m from. I’m way harder than what you’ll think at freestyling. If you feel that you can just come in the studio and freestyle on my song, then I’m ready to rap battle you. That’s just how I feel about it because I know I’m way harder than another rapper freestyling on my song. I don’t want them to think that they good and that they’re doing me a favor. I would respect it way more if someone said they wrote something to “Stoner” or if Drake said I wrote something to “Danny Glover.

on Lil Wayne:

Yeah. Because he has 10-15 years in the game on top and the fact that he knows he can lean back and retire and he still doesn’t. I hope Wayne is listening, I want to get in the studio with Wayne more than anybody in the world. I’ll get in the studio with Wayne before Michael Jackson right now so I hope he listening.
