Young Thug to donate proceeds from concert to Planned Parenthood

The rapper tweeted about being a teenage parent.

Young Thug is stepping up for Planned Parenthood.

The rapper vowed to donate all proceeds from Thursday night’s New York City show to Planned Parenthood, tweeting, “I was a teenage parent. Planned+unplanned parenthood is beautiful.”

I'm donating the proceeds from my show tonight to @PPFA. I was a teenage parent. Planned+unplanned parenthood is beautiful 🐍❤️

Young Thug played cuts from his new album, Beautiful Thugger Girls, at the Terminal 5 show and brought out Lil Yachty, Dae Dae, and Ugly God.

Thugger’s tweet is timely, however: The GOP’s proposed healthcare bill would defund Planned Parenthood for a year. Celebs like Jennifer Lawrence, Amy Poehler, Riz Ahmed, and Jon Hamm recently participated in a video about the importance of Planned Parenthood.

Bless up @youngthug 👏🏾🙌🏾 We see you & are here to help young ppl make educated sex & parenting decisions that are best for them #StandwithPP https://t.co/6vjMjpgSM7
