Lil Yachty blasts his friend Mitch and cancels their 'A Safe Place' podcast

Lil Yachty is usually a pretty calm guy but that changed on Thursday, August 22, when he tore into the people who accused him of disrespecting Mitch, his friend and podcast co-host.

Everything started when an episode of Yachty and Mitch's A Safe Place podcast was released on Wednesday. In one part, they were talking about people making the transition from street person to artist. Mitch said that he eventually became a producer, and Yachty said it was easy for him to make that leap.

"No, imagine if you didn't have a friend who was already extremely successful to help you get on your feet," Yachty told him. "A lot of people don't have that. So, what I'm saying is, what do you say? Because you didn't want to get a job. I never even suggested you get a job because I knew you wouldn't get a job."

"Remove me from this situation. I was never in your life. What the f**k would you have been doing?" he continued. "I feel like you might have been [robbing people]. Who knows what you would have been doing if you didn't have a n***a to show you."

Later, many accused Yachty of trying to embarrass his longtime pal, which he responded to. "I aint want to do no m*****f****** podcast," Yachty yelled on Instagram Live. "I'm a f*****g rapper. I got millions of dollars. I don't need to talk to other rappers. What the f**k are we talking about? I did the podcast for Mitch. Done put god***n $400,000 in Mitch pocket ... Y'all sitting here talking some, 'He disrespected his friend.' I ain't f*****g with Mitch."

Mitch later responded on X, formerly known as Twitter and said he's no mooch. "Alright let’s clear some things up," he tweeted. "I ain’t nobody lil bro never been check my history i had stats before i met bro and got even more now, all i ever wanted to do was just focus on the music and be involved in the culture in a positive way i hope none of this hinders that."

"Everybody that know me know i put in work nobody can take that from me and he wasn’t trying to take that from me we just debating on camera it got taken out of context," he added. "The next podcast will be epic ion even think we need a guest this time lol.. see ya around (insert think piece below)."

Only time can tell if these two will patch things up. Until then, you can read some of Mitch's tweets below.
