Gunna has returned with The Last Wun, a 25-track affair that serves as the follow-up to last year’s One of Wun album, and finds Gunna reuniting with producer Turbo.
Though not confirmed, The Last Wun also might serve as an end to Gunna’s time on YSL Records. The rapper’s relationship with the label, led by Young Thug, has grown publicly complicated following his involvement in the controversial YSL RICO trial. Gunna accepted a plea deal that led to his release, but the move allegedly strained his relationship with Thugga. While neither rapper has commented on the rumored strain, Young Thug has offered a few deleted tweets that gauge his feelings on the matter.
As for the cover art, it was an original painting designed by artist DeJardin, who told Rolling Stone the picture was about communicating the rapper’s state of mind.
“It was about trying to capture Gunna in his essence of where he is in his life,” DeJardin explained, “and then adding stylistic elements to it, to represent anger and vengefulness but also represent peace, stability, perseverance, grinding. It’s like he’s working through his pain and grit, and he has a literal chip on the shoulder as if he’s got something to prove right now.”
Gunna last earned a No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 with 2022’s DS4EVER, but all of his albums have peaked inside the chart’s top three, and reached No. 1 on the Top Rap Albums chart. While it remains to be seen if The Last Wun will do the same, let’s dive into the music.
Here is Billboard‘s ranking of every song on Gunna’s The Last Wun.
