A security guard for Drakeo the Ruler who says he was working for the rapper in late 2021 alleges he saw YG with a knife during the brawl that took Drakeo's life. In a deposition from March 19, 2025, Alrick Cooper III claimed YG was front and center during the fight. Cooper says YG was one of three men carrying what appeared to be short, improvised knives.

YG's run-in with law enforcement isn't pumping the brakes on his highly anticipated VERZUZ battle with The Game. Sources close to VERZUZ tell TMZ Thursday night's event will continue as planned. YG is set to face fellow Compton rapper The Game in their Compton Forever VERZUZ battle, scheduled to kick off at 6:30 PM PT. The confirmation comes after YG was detained during a SWAT response at a property connected to him in Burbank early Thursday morning.

Rapper YG had a run-in with cops Thursday morning during a SWAT response but was ultimately released. The Burbank Police Department responded around 7 AM PT. Cops were executing a search warrant for the investigation into Drakeo the Ruler's murder. The property is connected to YG, who had beef with the late rapper but has denied involvement. YG was not arrested, only detained during the search warrant and released. He was scheduled to perform that night against The Game in their Compton Forever VERZUZ battle.
