Young Thug is being hit with some serious charges stemming from his arrest last year in Georgia. Among them are eight felonies, including possession and intent to distribute meth, hydrocodone and marijuana.

The news comes via TMZ, which reports that in addition to the multiple drug possession and intent to distribute charges, the rapper has been charged with the possession of a firearm.

The charges stem from Young Thug's arrest in Georgia last September. At the time, he was booked for one count felony marijuana possession and for tinted windows. The court documents now obtained by TMZ, however, have laid out the barrage of other felony charges.

As previously reported, Young Thug was also arrested while celebrating his 27th birthday and the release of his Slime Language project last month. During that arrest in Hollywood, he was booked for possession of a concealed firearm in a vehicle.
