Hill, uncomfortable due to the microaggressions, presented...

On Tuesday, Oct. 19, Young Thug shared on his Twitter platform his interest to make Slime City “solar powered” with the help of Elon Musk. I wanna make Slime City solar powered wya @elonmusk — Young Thug ひ (@youngthug) October 19, 2021 The launch of his highly anticipated album “Punk” isn’t slowing down the rapper’s plan to invest in his newly acquired land Slime City.
