On September 11, 2025, Young Thug posted a short visual and shared the lyrics for a new track called “Man I Miss My Dawgs.” In the song, he names people tied to his personal life and career and offers short apologies or clarifications.
The release can be read as a direct response to recent leaked jailhouse calls that had exposed private conversations and put parts of his relationship and friendships under public scrutiny. Thug’s approach mixes a posted note, lines from the song, and a longer handwritten letter that circulated on social media.
The most detailed lines are aimed at his girlfriend, Mariah the Scientist, where he asks for privacy and admits wrongs. He also calls out peers by name, Drake, 21 Savage, Lil Baby, Future, Gucci Mane, and others, and uses short, direct phrases to say he wants to repair those ties.
Young Thug issues a public apology in his new song
The song lists people Thug says he wronged and pairs those mentions with short lines that sound like apologies or defenses. As per TMZ reports, he explicitly apologizes to Mariah the Scientist, Drake, Lil Baby, Future, 21 Savage, and Gucci Mane. The song was released with lyrics posted by Thug on his account, which made the lines easy for outlets to quote.
The apology to Mariah the Scientist is the most personal
Thug’s note and verse aimed at Mariah are the clearest emotionally. He wrote,
“My baby I was wrong and I’m sorry for what I put u through”.
According to InMusic reports, he said one of his biggest fears is
“losing you to the internet.”
Those exact lines were shared in his social posts and reproduced by multiple sites.
Young Thug names Drake and tries to separate jail calls from other conversations
As per TMZ reports, in one quoted lyric, Young Thug addresses Drake directly,
“Drizzy, you my brother / You know I ain't going against you / … F*** the jail call, you know the other calls we had.”
That line was widely reported and read as an attempt to say the leaked jail recordings do not tell the whole story of their relationship. For 21 Savage, Thug offers a short line defending him and rejecting claims that would harm his reputation.
Apologies also touch on other peers, mentors, and family
Beyond Mariah and Drake, the song and accompanying posts mention Lil Baby, Future (referred to by some reports as a mentor figure), Gucci Mane, and family members. Coverage says Young Thug combined the song with a handwritten letter and social posts that named several people and asked for peace for those affected by the leaks.
Trending
Leaked calls have been circulating for months and renewed scrutiny when new clips surfaced. Those recordings reportedly included admissions of infidelity and other private comments that stirred backlash. By posting lyrics and a letter, Thug used music and social media to respond directly to people he named instead of issuing a short statement through a publicist.
