When it comes to interacting with Young Thug, DDG stated that there were no issues between them despite what social media might suggest. DDG clarified the rumors surrounding an encounter with Young Thug during a livestream, where there was speculation that Young Thug ignored him and greeted someone else instead. DDG explained the situation about working at the Marathon Burger restaurant, co-owned by Nipsey Hussle's estate and Blacc Sam, and how the online narrative about him being ignored was blown out of proportion. He mentioned that he greeted Young Thug off-camera before the stream started, emphasizing the importance of not double-dapping in the Black community. DDG expressed his frustration with fans for sensationalizing the situation without knowing the full context. Although there are circulating theories about tension between DDG and Young Thug, DJ Akademiks shared insights suggesting that Young Thug may be upset due to DDG associating with Gunna during a time when Young Thug was dealing with legal issues.
