--------
In a recent interview with Vlad TV, YSL co-founder Mondo delved into the origins of the YSL collective and his early connections with prominent members like Young Thug and Gunna. Growing up on the west side of L.A., Mondo described a childhood surrounded by music, with his father and grandfather deeply involved in the industry. His friendship with Young Thug began in high school but fully bloomed around 2012, facilitated through mutual friends in Atlanta.
Mondo recounted that the Young Stoner Life (YSL) brand originated from a spur-of-the-moment decision and a fondness for Yves Saint Laurent clothing. With core members including Mondo, Young Thug, and a few close friends, YSL began as a small group that quickly gained traction. The collective embraced unique slang terms like 'slime' and 'slatt,' signifying brotherhood and loyalty, often incorporating snake imagery to reflect their gritty, yet unified persona. Despite challenges, YSL's organic growth and distinctive style have cemented its place in hip-hop.
