Young Thug was in jail for over two years, from May 2022 until his release on October 31, 2024. He was sentenced to a total of 40 years, with the first 5 years to be served in prison but commuted to the time he had already served (which is those two-plus years). After release, he must serve 15 years of probation and avoid the Atlanta metro area for the first 10 years of probation except for special occasions. If he violates probation, he faces an additional 20 years in prison. Therefore, Young Thug effectively spent about two and a half years in jail before his release under these conditions.
