Tune into the headlines with “On The News,” a powerhouse collab between Young Thug and Cardi B on his fourth studio album UY SCUTI, out now via YSL Records, Atlantic, and 300 Entertainment. Released today on September 26, 2025, this 18-track cosmic journey is Thug’s first full project since his October 2024 prison release following the RICO trial, and it’s packed with the introspective trap-soul that shaped Atlanta hip-hop. Drawing its name from the universe’s largest known star, UY SCUTI captures Thug’s larger-than-life status, inspired by “f**king space” as he shared in a recent GQ interview, featuring slurred melodies, Auto-Tune flair, and production from Metro Boomin and Taurus that pulses like a supernova.
As a track three on the list, “On The News” brings Thug’s wavy flows together with Cardi’s sharp, commanding bars over booming 808s and eerie synths, turning personal scandals and public scrutiny into a defiant anthem of resilience. Lines trade off like a news ticker, with Thug reflecting on his legal battles and Cardi flipping tabloid drama into triumphant flexes, all while nodding to their shared path of rising above the noise. Fans on X are lighting it up as a highlight, praising the chemistry that echoes their past “Point Made” vibe but with a post-prison edge, and it’s fueling talks on how it fits the album’s escape-from-earth narrative.
Spanning over an hour, UY SCUTI pulls in stars like Travis Scott on “Pipe Down,” Future on the lead “Money on Money,” and a closing duet with Mariah the Scientist on “Dreams Rarely Do Come True,” turning pain into propulsion through Opium cuts like “Yuck” with Ken Carson and tributes such as “RIP Big & Mack” with T.I. It’s Thug orbiting his orbit, raw yet radiant, trap at its most boundless. Dive into the On The News lyrics below and unpack its headline heat. Don’t miss other UY SCUTI tracks like Pipe Down for more of Thug’s cosmic trap glow.
