On Tuesday (Aug. 27), Young Thug’s attorney, Brian Steel, continued his cross-examination of Kenneth “Lil Woody” Copeland. The two discussed the key witness’ ex-parte meeting in June, his previous statements to the police and an infamous name-drop on one of the Atlanta rapper’s songs.

On the stand, Copeland faced questions from Steel about being mentioned in 2015’s “Halftime.” The specific lyrics read, “I'm walkin' through it like tons of the ones, and these b**ches grabbin', I'm at Follies / F**k n**ga try me, I swear to God, Lil Woody pull up and pop at his noggin.”

Steel suggested that authorities jumped at the chance to interrogate Copeland after the song dropped, and he ultimately agreed. “One of [the police officers] told me,” he recalled. “I got out of one of the jails, and they got me the next day. They were like, ‘Yeah, man, now you’re at the top of our radar.’ He pissed me off when he said that.”

When questioned about whether he was referenced in any of Young Thug’s other tracks, Copeland urged Steel to take that up with the artist himself. “It’s an old song,” he noted, confirming it was recorded a year before it dropped. When asked if he’d actually do what the lyrics suggest in “Halftime,” Copeland replied, “I would never.”

“Halftime” originally appeared on Barter 6 alongside smash hits like “Check” and “With That.” Birdman, Duke, the late Young Dolph, Boosie Badazz and Yak Gotti were among the project’s guest contributors.

The state’s prosecution pressed Copeland about Young Thug mentioning him in songs earlier in the month. “I didn't like him rapping about me," he stated, per Newsweek. "Why are you rapping about what I'm doing in the streets? That ain't got nothing to do with [you], so yeah, I was mad at him, and I was plotting on him.”
