Inspo - Young Thug has claimed that Caitlyn Jenner is his "hero" and made Caitlyn his first follow on Instagram.Meanwhile, back in 2014, Young Thug mentioned in his interview that he'd rather work with Lil Wayne more than Michael Jackson. But it seemed that once Young Thug got welcomed into the YMCMB crew, things took a turn for the worse with him and Wayne's relationship. Thugger was still claiming Wayne was his idol and collaborating with him on the record "Take Kare" up until the day Lil' Wayne finally went off on Twitter about how his project Tha Carter V wasn't going to be released thanks to his label Cash Money Records. Soon after, Young Thug announced the Carter 6 mixtape, which officially sparked their almost never-ending beef.(Photos form left: Larry Busacca/Getty Images for Time, Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for Anheuser-Busch)
