The RICO trial of Young Thug continues in Georgia.
Today, Thugger's lawyers played the Rich Gang track "Lifestyle" as part of their cross-examination of YSL co-founder Trontavious "Tick" Stephens, who is on trial along with Thug.
The Young Thug / YSL trial opened today with Rich Gang's "Lifestyle" playing as the camera panned to the six defendants.

They also want the judge to allow them to get Birdman and Rich Homie Quan -- the rest of Rich Gang -- on the stand to discuss the track.

The judge isn't sure if that's a good idea, but could be convinced.
We won't know what he decides for a while. Shortly after that exchange, the judge declared the trial would be in recess until January 22.
