The record is slated for just next week, August 16 (also the rapper’s 28th birthday). The announcement also unveils the album’s artwork (see below), which features many Young Thugs standing in a field, making up a picture of his own face (with jewellery made of Thuggers and a gold Thugger grill, ofc). Young Thug has previously hinted that he’s been working on an album, confirming the name change to So Much Fun last month (July 19) and teasing music all the way back in March. Album name changed to “SO MUCH FUN”— Young Thug ひ (@youngthug) July 19, 2019 Recently, Young Thug is also likely to have been on people’s minds due to his remix of Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road”, along with the Walmart yodelling kid Mason Ramsey (because the song wasn’t a big enough meme by itself, apparently). Oh, and it also got a video featuring the pair, along with Lil Nas and Billy Ray Cyrus, storming Area 51.
