Yung Bleu Apologizes To Police, Plans To Sue Trailer Company For Discrimination After Altercation In Georgia

On Monday, Aug 23, Yung Bleu spoke about his encounter with the police in Gainesville, GA, to which he believed he was racially profiled while trying to rent a trailer.

The rapper is now apologizing to the police for his anger and claims it was misdirected. In his Instagram post, he stated,

“I apologize for taking my anger out on the Gainesville police department, instead of the business who lied and manipulated the situation. I was embarrassed and in disbelief of what happened so I directed my energy towards the wrong people.” 

Yung Bleu continued,

“My energy will now be directed towards Absolute Trailers because their lies could have turned to a possible deadly situation for me. Officers were moving off what they were told by this establishment. That I was a “fraudulent thief” before even knowing my name or interacting with us.” 

He added,

“No I’m not being quiet! Im not letting this slide and blow over. That can open the door for more ignorance in the community that can be more dangerous to those after me. I will use my platform to make an example and create possible change in this community for the good.” 

He finished by saying,

“I will be suing Absolute Trailers for Discrimination and Profiling and hopefully this promotes fair service to all black people in the community.” 

Yung Bleu said he can admit when he is wrong and although he did not agree with the tactics used by the police, everything was done legally.
