Young Thug Held a SXSW Funeral Procession to Mark the Announcement of 'Slime Season 3'

Death to all doubters.

For a few months now, details of rapper Young Thug's newest record Slime Season 3 have been relatively elusive. The record was originally supposed to drop last month before Thugger put out a new EP in its place, I'm Up. Luckily for us, he announced the release date at South By Southwest, and goddamn he did it big. Last night he brought a casket around Austin with Slime Season 3 and a release date of March 25 plastered around it. It's a really sick move to announce a record, and given how good the other Slime Seasons have been it should live up to all the hype.
