With Young Thug‘s upcoming mixtape Jeffery coming soon, it looks like the Atlanta rapper is reportedly looking into a potential name change. According to 300 Entertainment’s CEO, Lyor Cohen, Thugga will be switching his rap name from Young Thug to No, My Name Is Jeffery sometime after the release of his forthcoming project, Jeffery.
Here’s what Lyor had to say about the name change:
“The reality of the situation is, Young Thug is not going to be ‘Young Thug’ anymore. His new name is going to be “No My Name Is Jeffery.” “No, My Name is Jeffery.” That’s his new name. And the reality is, when you see this commercial, you’re all going to understand what we do here at 300. Because it’s powerful images of what makes someone Young Thug and what the evolution and how someone is Jeffery. It’s a circular thing, it’s important. “No, My Name is Jeffery” is on it’s way. Please respect us to actually segue and utilize his name going forward because it’s important.”
