COBB COUNTY, Ga. — A local rapper is facing several gun, drug and gang charges after authorities searched his home.
Fremondo Crenshaw, also known as YSL Mondo, is a co-founder of the YSL music crew with hip-hop superstar Young Thug.
Cobb County police say Crenshaw was arrested for strangling a woman inside a Marietta home last month. They say the 31-year-old did not show up for a court date, so federal agents with the U.S. Marshals Task Force, GBI agents and Cobb deputies searched his home and he’s now facing more charges.

Charging documents do not identify a specific which gang he is associated with, but multiple law enforcement sources confirmed to Channel 2 Action News that he is a member of YSL.
