Young Thug has reportedly been sent back to jail for failing to pass a court-ordered drug test. According to court documents provided by The Blast, Thugger has had his bond and probation revoked due to the positive test result.

Court records indicate the rapper was arrested November 7, one day before he was due in court for an arraignment hearing from his September 2017 arrest for possession and intent to distribute. Young Thug — real name Jeffery Williams — is currently being held at DeKalb County Jail. This news follows Thugger’s previous unrelated felony gun charge in L.A. last month outside his listening party at Dave and Buster’s, which compounds on top of his eight gun and drug-related felony charges after his Georgia arrest last year.

In other news, Earl Sweatshirt just dropped his first single in several years.
