GQ: You excited about the new album?
Young Thug: Not really.

GQ: People’s biggest complaint is that you mumble. Does that ever get to you?
Young Thug: It don’t really get to me. When it gets to me, I’ll do it worse. I’ll make a whole fucking mumbling album.

GQ: Why’d you decide to connect with Birdman and Cash Money Records?
Young Thug: Because my whole life I looked up to them. I wanted to stunt like Birdman, which I fucking am. And I wanted to be like Wayne.

GQ: Plain and simple: Did you try to have Lil Wayne killed?
Young Thug: Fuck no.

GQ: Does it bother you that Wayne, one of your idols, clearly has a personal problem with you?
Young Thug: Maybe if I was a peasant it would. But of course it bothers me some, because that’s what I always wanted. It was so weird: I always wanted to be in the studio with Wayne. I would tell Birdman to bring him over, but he never fucking came.

GQ: How do you feel about the whole Meek Mill/Drake beef? Tough month for Meek, right?
Young Thug: Tough month for Drake, tough life for the other guy.

GQ: Why do you wear women’s clothing?
Young Thug: Because women’s clothes are [slimmer] than men’s clothes. The jeans I got on right now, they’re women’s jeans. But they fit how they’re supposed to fit. Like a rock star. The only thing I probably have in men’s is, like, briefs. T-shirts. Ninety percent of my clothes are women’s.

GQ: When did you start wearing predominantly women’s clothing?
Young Thug: When I was 12 or some shit, started gambling, getting my own money. My dad wouldn’t buy me tight pants. I had to get my own money to buy them.
