Gunna Takes Shots At Drake On New Album

by Sandra Appiah, 11:37am May 15, 2024,

Rapper Gunna’s new album, One of Wun, has stirred the pot with its subliminal messages, which fans and critics alike believe are directed at fellow rapper Drake.

The album dropped on May 10, and listeners did not take long to pick up on the lines that seemed to aim the Canadian rapper.

The track Still Prevail has been the center of attention. Gunna’s lyrics suggest a disdain for artificial enhancements, a topic recently associated with Drake.

This comes after other artists have alluded to Drake’s alleged cosmetic procedures to enhance his physique. The rap community has been abuzz with these claims, and Gunna’s words have only fueled the fire.

Furthermore, Gunna’s Collage has raised eyebrows by mentioning authenticity and self-reliance in the creative process.

This has been interpreted as a nod to the ghostwriting controversies that have previously enveloped Drake, suggesting that Gunna prides himself on his independent artistry.

The album’s release was also shadowed by an anticipated clash with Future, who had hinted at dropping new music on the same day.

Social media exchanges between the two suggested a brewing tension, but it was a false alarm as Future’s comments were related to another project.

Amidst the album’s pointed lyrics, Gunna also addresses his relationship with Young Thug and the accusations of betrayal that have been circulating.

He has openly denied wrongdoing and maintains his stance amidst the ongoing legal battles involving the YSL label.
