THE MOTHER of one of rapper Young Thug’s children was allegedly shot and killed outside of a bowling alley.
Days before LaKevia Jackson’s death, the rapper spoke of giving up music and retiring in favor of his children.
In an interview with Complex, Young Thug essentially called rap a young man’s game, and said he plans on bowing out to take care of, “other business.”
“Why would I be 45 or 50 years old trying to record albums? When I’m 50 years old, I know 80% of the world is 15 to 24,” he said in the interview.
