Having said that, there have been some moments of hilarity during the trial. Mostly, this occurs whenever Thugger’s music gets mentioned. As it turns out, even the State’s witnesses can’t help but admit just how extensive Young Thug’s discography is. In the clip below, you can see the latest witness claim that the song “Lifestyle” is a banger. This leads to an objection in court and when it gets overruled, the whole court shares a quick laugh.
