Rich Homie Quan has been called to testify in Young Thug‘s ongoing RICO trial after being subpoenaed by the prosecution.
According to social media user ThuggerDaily, Thug’s former collaborator has been served a summons to take the stand at the trial as a witness.
The same account also claims that Quan has previously given a police statement that will be read in court.
Quan will not necessarily provide evidence against Thug during his appearance on the witness stand.

Lil Wayne may also be called to testify in the trial after Fulton County prosecutors tried to play videos of the rapper speaking about Thug in the courtroom, but Judge Ural Glanville refused to allow it unless Wayne testified himself.
The issue relates to the 2015 shooting of Wayne’s tour bus which the prosecution claim Thug was behind.
They claim he hired affiliate PeeWee Roscoe to carry it out. Roscoe was eventually sentenced to 10 years in prison and 10 years of probation over the matter, but his conviction was overturned in 2018.
Though Lil Wayne may end up in the courtroom, one rapper who will not be called to testify is Gunna.
The YSL rapper who previously accepted a controversial plea deal in the case, will not be called to take the stand after the judge ordered the prosecution to cut down on the number of witnesses they planned to question.
There were originally over 700 named witnesses put forward by the state, but now only around 200 could be called to take part in the trial.
Gunna’s name was removed from the revised witness list, as was Thug’s brother Unfoonk, who was previously sentenced to over nine years in prison.
Birdman and YFN Lucci could also still be called to testify as they remain on the government’s witness list.
Gunna has faced numerous accusations that he snitched on Young Thug to secure his plea deal, something he has repeatedly denied. Thugger, for his part, has never commented publicly on the rumors.
Following his plea deal, Gunna attempted to set the record straight by saying: “While I have agreed to always be truthful, I want to make it perfectly clear that I have NOT made any statements, have NOT been interviewed, have NOT cooperated, have NOT agreed to testify or be a witness for or against any party in the case and have absolutely NO intention of being involved in the trial process in any way,” he said in a statement following his release from jail.”
