Young Thug apologized to GloRilla after insulting her looks during a leaked jail phone call, and netizens are giving their two cents on the matter. On September 4, 2025, an alleged phone conversation between the rapper and his girlfriend, Mariah The Scientist, began circulating on social media.

In the two-minute recording, the rapper calls GloRilla ugly and makes remarks about her “big head” and “big mouth”:

"Long a** bullsh*t a** wig, skinny sh*t, goddamn big a** head, big mouth… I would not pursue her, like at all… that sh*t ain’t nun.”

After the recording went viral on X, GloRilla seemingly responded to Young Thug with a tweet saying:

"Mind you dis da same n***a blowing my phone up to ask what color my eyes is lmaooo."

Young Thug took to X later to apologize to GloRilla for his mean statements about her. He backtracked on his earlier remarks, stating that he didn’t find her ugly at all:

“@GloTheofficial first of all, I’m sorry to u for my words, and I honestly don’t think ur ugly at all. I was speaking from jail, just having a hard time with life.. I don’t like bashing girls and hardly ever did. I’m sorry to u, twin.”

@PopBase shared details of the rapper’s apology.

An X user (@harryshouse3) didn’t find the apology sincere: “The apology is not genuine he only apologized cause it got leaked apology not accepted and Mariah is also weird asf for laughing.”

Others shared the same sentiments:

Another X user (@pukerrainbrow) added: “Is this a real apology…. Or just damage control after getting exposed?”
An X user (@Sagarmishra121) stated: “Is saying sorry enough after something like this leaks?

Other X users praised the rapper for owning up to his actions.

X user (@ChaleyEx) replied: “Hats good gesture tho.”
Another user (@GeneralXCT) added: “Young Thug is so humble for doing this. Bless his heart.”

The Go Crazy hitmaker has been in a phone leak scandal where some private conversations about his industry mates circulated on social media. Recently, a jail phone conversation leaked where Young Thug allegedly stated that Kendrick Lamar would never be bigger than Drake because he refused to collaborate with him:

"These n****s too big, like 'I ain't doing no features,' why? Why wouldn't you wanna do a feature for a superstar?" He continued, "Put somebody on! It's okay to run your few hundred M's up, but who'd you help, though?" You supposed to be a n**** blessing n****s. That’s why these n****s will never be bigger than Drake, EVER in life."

Young Thug, in another controversial phone leak, alleged that he had paid $50k to buy fake streams for rapper Gunna.

“Like, I know you can’t go nowhere in this world and get no $20 million check from no label,” he added. “You’re not doing numbers like that. You all right, but you ain’t doing it like that. Like, the number one album you just had right now, I paid for you to have the number one album. You didn’t honestly earn a number one album over The Weeknd, my boy. I paid for that sh*t.

The rapper responded to the criticism over his leaked jail phone calls, saying:

"Bashing me only goin fu** that rap community up more, I’m the blue to this fake a** game.”
