YOUNG THUG WANTS TO HELP AFRICANS STRANDED IN UKRAINE
Atlanta rapper Young Thug wants to use his resources and influence to help Africans who are currently stuck in Ukraine. Multiple viral videos on social media show thousands of African students stranded as they try to flee the country due to the Russian invasion.
Medical student, Korrine Sky, 26, explained “Some people have gone to get buses, but they are not allowing Black people basically onto the buses. They’re prioritizing Ukrainians. That’s what they say.”
Not too long after these videos began to trend, the ‘Ski’ rapper posted this message on his IG Story:
“If some of my rap brothers are in I’m willing to help Africans get out of Ukraine however I can sense [sic] they not letting us pass,” Thug wrote. “Whoever holds the info for these movements please contact me ASAP I’m ready.”
Thugga’s message has already started a domino effect of other artists and industry veterans wanting to do the same.
Fans of Young Thug already know he has a very giving heart and we hope all of our African brothers and sisters in Ukraine can find their way to safety.
