A new Coachella look from Young Thug has sparked another round of drama with Tekashi 6ix9ine.
After Young Thug stepped out at the festival with rainbow-colored braids, 6ix9ine accused him of copying a hairstyle that helped define his own image.
The rapper took to Instagram to share photos of himself and Young Thug side by side, alongside an old video clip where he said Young Thug had “stole that s–t.”
6ix9ine then doubled down with more posts aimed at the rapper.

“U NOT ME GANG,” he wrote on Instagram Stories. “Bro thought this was tuff.”
He later uploaded another video showing himself dressing in an outfit similar to the one Young Thug famously wore on the cover of Jeffery, joking that Young Thug copies his style while getting upset when the favor is returned.
6ix9ine has repeatedly criticized Young Thug since footage from an interrogation room surfaced online last year. Calls were also leaked from Thugger’s time in jail, where he was recorded talking negatively about several popular rappers, including GloRilla, Gunna, Lil Durk, and even Drake.
Young Thug turned Coachella into a whole different energy with “Digits”…

More recently, he also criticized Young Thug’s “F–k The Streets” movement with 21 Savage, saying it was an attempt to reopen the door for artists to work with Gunna again. Social media slammed him as a “hater.”
