When it comes to staying consistent, few rappers are moving like Gunna right now. His new album, The Last Wun, isn’t just another drop; it’s another mile marker on a run that’s been one of the most impressive streaks in hip hop over the past few years. Whether it’s pushing out hits, carving out a lane with his smooth flows, or even pushing health and wellness with his own running club, Gunna is literally and figuratively on a different run.
The Album: The Last Wun by Gunna
On the music side, Gunna keeps his foot on the gas with a sprawling 25-track project. Linking up again with Turbo, he leans into a more reflective tone while still sliding effortlessly over beats. The album shows his ability to balance mellow melodies with sharp bars, proving once again that Gunna doesn’t just make songs—he makes vibes.
The project’s global reach stands out. Burna Boy and Wizkid bring that international flair, with tracks like “wgft” and “Forever Be Mine” feeling tailor-made for late-night playlists. And even with all the outside noise—the controversies, the social media shots—Gunna turns pressure into art. You hear it on joints like “Prototype,” where he spits with a subtle defiance, and on “Podcast,” where he flips hate into humor.
Is 25 tracks a lot in the streaming era? Absolutely. But the gems are undeniable. “Sakpase” has that classic Gunna bounce, while “Him All Along” feels like an instant fan favorite. The variety across the project is what keeps his catalog in rotation.
Beyond the Music: Gunna the Runner
But here’s the thing, Gunna’s story right now isn’t just about music. He’s also putting on for health and wellness in a way you don’t usually see from rappers. Starting his own running club, he’s out here showing fans that taking care of your body is just as important as flexing the lifestyle. For somebody who’s faced so much controversy, Gunna is flipping the narrative, choosing growth, choosing health, choosing longevity.
That’s part of what makes this run so different. It’s not just consistency in music, it’s consistency in life. Gunna’s showing that you can drop bangers, handle your business, and still make time to better yourself.
Let’s keep it real! Gunna’s had every reason to fold under the pressure: industry drama, public perception, constant scrutiny. But instead of slowing down, he’s lapping expectations. Every time people count him out, he comes back sharper. That resilience is what makes this current stretch so inspiring.
The Verdict
The Last Wun isn’t just another album, it’s another chapter in a story that feels far from over. Gunna’s proving that being on a run means more than music. It’s about momentum, mindset, and movement. Whether he’s in the studio or on the track, Gunna is setting the pace. And right now? He’s not just running, he’s leading.
