Young Thug Calls Himself The New Tupac, Hip Hop Reacts Pricelessly

Over the weekend, Young Thug decided to troll everyone by calling himself the new Tupac. 

On what would've been the late rapper's 46th birthday (June 16), Thugga released his Beautiful Thugger Girls project. Pac news was already a major highlight that day. But, it wasn't because it was his B-Day. Pac's biopic, All Eyez On Me, hit theaters that day, as well. 

Taking advantage of this publicity, Young Thug tweeted that he was basically the second coming of him. "I dropped E.B.B.T.G on 2PAC'S bday because I'm the #newPAC. I feel like I am the thug he didn't get to become #SoImGoinFinishWhatHeStarted," he said. Check out that tweet below. 

Since then, hip hop has reacted to the tweet. Everyone has been disagreeing with Thug, rightfully so. YFN Lucci responded, as well. The two have traded jabs on social media ever since. See those exchanges below. 

We're shaking at our heads at yet another rapper comparing himself to the late icon. So, we're just going to leave this here...

So, basically Thugga...
