HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Alberto E. Rodriguez / Getty Atlanta rapper Young Thug posted a video to his Instagram story Wednesday to show the world a confrontation he had with a private jet pilot who wouldn’t let everyone in his party fly.

There was DJ Pauly D and his girlfriend Nikki, JWOWW and her fiancé Zack, parents-of-two Deena and Chris, and Mom and Dad Mike and Lauren, who were ready for their first “big night out” since having baby Romeo.

During his interview with TF1, Stromae discusses the dichotomy of his joyful beats and dark lyrics, likening them to his outlook on life. “There are difficult mome...
