Atlanta rapper Gunna is opening up like never before—reflecting on his turbulent journey through legal battles, his unwavering fanbase, and his personal growth as he prepares to release his final album under YSL, titled “The Last Wun.”
“My Fans Really Came Through for Me”
Following a high-profile legal ordeal and eventual acquittal, Gunna stepped back from the public eye. But when he made a comeback performance in New York City, it was to a sold-out crowd—a moment that reminded him of the strength of his connection with fans.
“It’s one of the best feelings in the world, that I’ll never forget,” he told will.i.am during a recent interview with Uproxx.
“I never take it for granted… it was really about [my fans] showing up for me. I got die-hard fans, for sure.”
“Pray Until Something Happens”
In the emotional sit-down, Gunna had a powerful message for those who have stood by him:
“Thank you for being with me. And never give up. Don’t stop, especially when they want you to stop. Really keep going then. That’s when you really, really push.”
He added that resilience is key, especially when obstacles seem overwhelming:
“A lot of things will pull you down… but when you get over the hump, you feel stronger.”
Finding Peace Through Isolation and Reflection
When asked how he managed to keep his mental strength during the storm, Gunna revealed that isolation and deep conversations with family gave him clarity.
“I take heed, I listen. So when I’m going through something… you still gotta look and see what’s in front of you and what’s going on around you. Because it’s clues… ways to get through stuff you might not know.”
According to him, guidance can come from anywhere—especially from loved ones:
“It might be through words of your moms, or it might be everything together that you take and you can use.”
“The Last Wun” – A New Chapter
At 32, Gunna is closing a chapter with the upcoming release of “The Last Wun,” marking the final album under his deal with YSL. While the release date hasn’t been officially confirmed, anticipation is building, as fans see it not just as an album, but a symbol of survival, growth, and transformation.
As Gunna moves forward, his story serves as a reminder of the power of loyalty, perseverance, and the healing found in music and genuine connection.
