Four rappers who have pleaded guilty to racketeering charges in Atlanta said that YSL — the rap crew they were associated with that is headed by the star Jeffery Williams, or Young Thug — [was not only a renowned hip-hop collective, but also a criminal street gang](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlpGfRP0TiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wMS8xMy9hcnRzL211c2ljL3lvdW5nLXRodWcteXNsLXRyaWFsLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyMzAxMTMmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9ODI3MTEmbmw9ZXZlbmluZy1icmllZmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTIyNTA2JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpjtdHiwWOzR5QDUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~). Now prosecutors are using the testimony of those men to pursue 14 others in the group, including Williams, whom prosecutors describe as a cutthroat gang leader.

The merits of salary transparency are known, but it’s still not easy to talk about money. Like going for a run, or drinking water and getting enough sleep, the benefits of talking candidly about money are widely acknowledged. It’s become popular — even trendy — to openly discuss pay and economic inequality. In practice, however, [employees who try to make it happen in their real lives often face subtle or outright resistance from higher-ups](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlpGfRP0TpaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wMS8xMy9idXNpbmVzcy9tb25leS1zYWxhcnktdHJhbnNwYXJlbmN5LXBheS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjMwMTEzJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTgyNzExJm5sPWV2ZW5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTEyMjUwNiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKY7XR4sFjs0eUA1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA).
