Young Thug hit the stage in Las Vegas over the weekend and immediately got people talking. The Atlanta rapper performed at ComplexCon in front of a hyped-up crowd, but social media wanted to know where did his tattoos go?
Thugger was shirtless during the performance but fans noticed his normally inked body looked bare—smooth even. Some – like me – thought it might be makeup or tricky stage lighting. Others thought it might be some legal condition or image control. Either way, people worried about this for about 14 hours straight. And still are.

I saw another clip of Thug backstage and it seemed like his tattoos were back in place. I don’t know for sure, but that’s what I feel I saw.
Gunna, Thug’s old bud, has already reinvented himself. He’s running marathons and showing off his good health like a new chain. Could Thug be next in line for a rebrand? He’s been through the storm and seems happy.

Now, there was some low-vibrational silliness. Some online chatter took the low road! Thug’s physique has changed. We do not do body shaming around here. But if we’re being honest, maybe the shirt should’ve stayed on this time! (I kid.)
All jokes aside, Young Thug’s Vegas performance reminded everyone that he still “knows how to command a crowd.”got it.” He even jumped into a mosh pit, connected with the audience and had a ball.
Now, if he really is stepping into a new chapter, maybe he’ll expand musically too. His last project didn’t quite land. If the tattoos are gone, put songs with the “hard ER” there too!
