Trae Tha Truth Reunites With Missing Daughter After Months Long Search

Trae Tha Truth had an extremely difficult end of 2024. The rapper's daughter went missing, and he made it very clear that he was desperate to find her. Trae Tha Truth accused the child's mother of absconding with her after their last visit, and he provided updates via social media. He even released an emotionally charged song detailing his concerns. Fortunately, this saga has a happy ending. The rapper was able to reunite with his daughter, Truth, on New Year's Day.

Trae Tha Truth told TMZ that he got a phone call on New Year's Day from authorities. The mother of his child had been arrested on child endangerment charges in El Centro, California. The rapper proceeded to get on a flight from Texas to San Diego, and then drive 100 miles to reunite with Truth. Trae Tha Truth did not waste time ensuring his daughter's safety, either. The outlet reported that Trae immediately returned to Texas with his daughter. Truth's mother, meanwhile, will be extradited to the Lone Star State shortly.

Trae Tha Truth Admitted His Reunion Was "Emotional"

The saga involving Trae Tha Truth's daughter lasted a whopping four months. The rapper posted about Truth's disappearance in August. Shortly after, he hired a private investigator to track his child's mother down. The woman managed to evade capture, however, until her recent El Centro arrest. Trae admitted to TMZ that the whole ordeal has made him very emotional. He plans to take things "one day at a time" and spend as much time with his daughter as possible.

"Emotional" is definitely the word we would use to describe Trae's aforementioned song, "Letter to Truth, Pt. 2." In it the rapper details the helplessness he feels in not knowing where Truth was. "I been waiting on the call, I hope I don't miss you," he rapped. "Everyday I been looking for you. Houston been looking for you, Granny been looking for you, Nico been looking for you, everybody been looking for you." We're relieved and very happy to know they finally found her.

Young Thug shares first verse since release on Lil Baby’s new album ‘WHAM’ – featuring Future, GloRilla and more

Lil Baby has released his new album ‘WHAM’, featuring Young Thug‘s first verse since being released from prison.

Released today (January 3), ‘WHAM’ – which is short for “Who Hard As Me” – is comprised of 15 tracks and sees the Atlanta rapper team up with the likes of GloRilla on ‘Readbone’, Rod Wave and Rylo Rodriguez on ‘Be Myself’, Travis Scott on ‘Stuff’ and 21 Savage on ‘Outfit’.

Most notably, Lil Baby is joined by Future and Young Thug on ‘Dum, Dumb, and Dumber’, which also marks the latter’s first verse since being released from jail last year. The rapper takes a moment to address his situation in the interlude prior to his verse, rapping: “I don’t even believe I was locked up, for real, for real / I was havin’ my way the whole time, fool, you know what I’m sayin’?.”

 

Thug took to his official X/Twitter account earlier today to clear up one of his bars on the track and explained: “When I said these U.S bitches kinda bad I meant “bad girls” not ugly girls.. we got the prettiest girls on earth…”

Back in 2022, Young Thug – real name Jeffery Lamar Williams – was arrested and spent two years in prison on gang-related charges. He was then charged with seven additional felonies. In November, the rapper was released from jail after pleading guilty to gang, drug and gun charges, ending the longest criminal trial in Georgia history.

The ‘Slime Language’ rapper was originally arrested alongside fellow rapper Gunna, who are both involved with the musical collective YSL (Young Stoner Life), which prosecutors accused of being “a criminal street gang”.

Both musicians had denied their charges, with the former having his bail denied three times.

‘WHAM’ marks Lil Baby’s first full-length release since 2022’s ‘It’s Only Me‘. In a three-star review of the LP, NME shared: “Fortunately, closer ‘Russian Roulette’ bookends the album with a sentiment that mirrors the record’s introductory track as Lil Baby peers into the farthest corners of his musicality. If the trimmings were removed from ‘It’s Only Me’, it might rival his previous releases – instead, it’s a few notches shy of greatness”

In other news, Young Thug recently made his first post-trial appearance in an Instagram video with T.I.
