AceShowbiz - Young Thug has officially welcomed producer and singer Yume to his YSL Records label, confirming her signing with a special gesture. On June 25, Young Thug shared a video on Instagram showing him presenting Yume with a custom iced-out YSL chain, symbolizing her new status on the roster.
In the Instagram post, Young Thug mentioned discovering Yume in a club, signaling the beginning of their professional relationship. He followed up with another post confirming her addition to the YSL family, highlighting the significance of this moment for both artists.
Their collaboration history traces back to 2019 when Yume produced the track "Go Crazy," a collaboration between Young Thug and Chris Brown, marking a notable early achievement for her at just 13 years old. Since then, Yume has built an impressive production resume, contributing to projects for major artists such as Drake, Future, and Kid Cudi. In recent years, she has also shifted focus towards establishing herself as a performing artist.
Fans noticed Young Thug began following Yume on Instagram in May after seeing her perform at Rolling Loud, where she previewed a collaboration with Cash Cobain. Earlier this week, during an appearance on PlaqueBoy Max’s stream, Young Thug indicated that the signing was imminent, responding affirmatively to fan questions about Yume joining YSL Records.
Currently, Yume joins a YSL roster that includes artists like Strick, Yung Kayo, 1300Saint, Tezzus, and Diamond*. There is also speculation that Kodak Black might soon join the label after becoming independent from Capitol Records. Recently, Young Thug publicly expressed interest in signing Kodak Black, offering support and resources if a deal could be made.
This signing marks another step in Young Thug’s ongoing efforts to expand and diversify the talent under YSL Records, reinforcing the label’s growing influence in hip-hop and contemporary music. The moment of gifting the iced-out YSL chain in the club underscores the significance of this new partnership.
