When Young Thug said he was the new 2Pac, the folks on Twitter really let him have it, including the rapper YFN Lucci.

Thug quickly responded to Lucci and pretty much threatened to kill him.

The recent exchange between Thug and Lucci doesn't come out of left field. In February of last year, YFN suggested that he was hanging out with Thug's fiancée Jerikka Karlae in a screenshot.

"I know you miss laying on that sofa with me, girl," wrote Lucci.

Thug then responded with a photo of Jerikka on a private jet.

"This the only sofa this bitch on," he wrote.

Lucci hasn't responded to Thug's threats yet, so we'll have to see where this beef goes from here. On another note, why do you think Thug would compare himself to Pac, probably knowing that he would get so much backlash for it?
