It’s been a long time coming, but these surreal images are proof that Young Thug and his fan Elton John are indeed in contact.
In late 2015, Elton John revealed that he was a fan of Young Thug’s work after hearing a song on Apple Music’s Beats 1 Radio. “I heard a track on Beats 1 and I loved it so much,” he said, before speaking on Thug’s style and eccentricity. “I love all of that, it’s unexpected. I remember when Blind Faith came out, with a nude girl and John & Yoko, you had to buy it in a black plastic bag. And you should be able to do things like that but we don’t live in that kind of world anymore.”
After the initial shock wore off, another wave of Young Thug/Elton John buzz came when rumors started swirling that the two artists had a collaboration in the works. We’re still waiting on that, but today Young Thug shared a couple of pictures with Elton, proving that the two legends have spent time together.
We’ll be looking forward to “Brocodile Rock,” “Slimey Dancer,” or whatever these two cook up.
