You know what I thought. I was thinking to myself, man, if only Gunna and Burner Boy made a track like Usher and R. Kelly when they was talking about having the same girl. Because if you didn't know, Chloe Bailey has Burner Boy and Gunner allegedly. Because, you know, there's no Red Pueil podcast, but you know, I had to start off with some messiness. Because I thought to myself, I'm listening to Gunna's latest album, One of Blondeau. one that's out now in all DSPs and I was like I know that ain't who I think it is because I had to you know go through my mental Rolodex to realize what I was actually hearing right now because

I was thinking to myself you telling me Gunna and Burner Boy is on the same track and the entire chorus is just but then you know what I'm saying I was like damn look at the state of hip-hop Like, what's going on? Ladies and gentlemen, that may be currently my favorite track off of the album. As of right now, I'm really at again as far as the album. There's a lot of music that came out, a lot of firing music, too, that came out. So when it comes to that, J.I.D., I gave like two listens. Now I'm into Gunner's album.

I'm going to get into Bryson Tillers album. I know Young Nudy dropped, but it's not my type of music. So as far as Gunna, listening, not going to lie. Every track so far has been fired. So when it comes to gun him, he consistently gets listed for me throughout the entire project because I already know that he put forth some phenomenal flows and melodies all over the project. And that's exactly what this project is as far as me getting all the way to again.

Obviously, I have a lot more to go because I don't know if y'all know. This album is 25 tracks long, an hour and eight minutes. Of course, his last album, as far as one of one, was very interesting. As when you look at the length of that one, pause, you guys, see, that's the problem. May 10th, 24, one of one was 57 minutes in length. So when you come to last, well, okay, and then before that, 2003, it was a gift and a curse was 45 minutes in length. So now if you're getting into an entire album, not only an entire hour, not only an hour and eight minutes, like goodness gracious, I'm a listen to every single one of those seconds,

minutes, and hours because guess what? I'm a huge fan of Gunna. So now, when I come across this track as far as with Burn a Boy, it just went off in my brain that Chloe Bailey was linked to Gunna and Burner Boy. And the entire track is about, I don't know, it's just very interesting. Anyways, but that being said, the last one is out now. Obviously, they don't put any features. Oh, he does put features.

Okay, there's offset on there, Burn a Boy, Whiz Kid, Nietzsche. I don't know who that is. Asoske. And I think that's it for the features. So when you look at Gunna, when you look at his latest album, the last one, one can see how this could be the last entry into his deal with Young Thug. because I was thinking to myself the last one is very interesting

because if you go from one of one to last one, it seems like that you're symbolizing something. Now it makes me wonder where is he going to go next for his next run into hip hop because if he leaves Youngstona Life 300 Entertainment, which he is now under,

I mean, he's under a bunch of people. Young Stoner Life slash 300 Entertainment. Oh, that's basically it. Yeah, that's it. But anyway, with that being said, young thug is over that label right so if you're under young thug and he completely despises you to the point where i kept calling gunna the biggest gangster in Atlanta because obviously i was telling a lot of uh fibs as far as jokes and showcasing how you know in Atlanta people not care about people say they care about snitches talking about

free young thug whole time gunner been snitching on young thug he had some of the hottest material that he's he's had since coming out of prison and young thug can't even get close to to a hit right he put out a track with the most influential artists arguably of all time as far as future and now that track debuted like 70th most played track in the world is nowhere on the charts and that was like what a month ago so young thugs probably at the drawing board thinking to himself hold up now y'all telling me that somebody who y'all said was wrong for snitching on me has had the most success since coming out of prison and me somebody that y'all claims you're holding down saying free young thug free young thug I put out a track with

future after coming out of prison basically my first day out April 25th of this year title money on money featuring future Hendricks and the song is fire I think the song's fire and ultimately the quality level is at a level that the engagement is not at because now the engagement people could care less ain't hip-hop fans the fickleest fans ever say to hip hop like what's going on so the reason why i say that is because the way that gunna got out of his um riko the ys l rico is because of his plea deal right that was all the way back in 2022 talk about feeling old so now in 2025 when the entire game has shift to where gunna is harder than ever right and yon thug is seemingly cooled off people are cool off of him it's it's like it's is is air hopefully i'm using this word

It's eerily similar to Bobby Schmurter when he got out of prison. It seemed like the best situation in the world, right? Bobby Smurter gets out of prison and we're just waiting for another hot, you know, it's a PG podcast, but y'all get the point. We're waiting for one of those hot type of tracks from Bobby Schmerter. And now, Young Thugs in that same situation to where he's putting our music and people could care less to the point where his partner, Mariah, she's way harder to him. as far as burning blue is the 41st most played track in the world and we're talking about currently obviously you know longevity young thug could go touring certain places that marai camp which i think is more um respectable as far as building up a fan base but as far as bari the scientists currently with music burning blue is the 41st most played track in the world you know thug doesn't have any track that he's been putting he's been trying right young thug has been putting out all type of tracks i mean

money on money he had dumb, dumb and dumber with little baby that's what he first came out the gate that hey little baby and future on it he came out the gate swinging he was like okay that didn't work money on money with just future that didn't work well I guess y'all really just wanted me to stay in prison

because y'all really not support my music so anyways with Gunna that's why I call him the biggest gangster in Atlanta because somehow he then turned the whole tide the whole perception and now he's one of the hottest artists in Atlanta not only that but he's also one of the hottest artists in hip hop.

So now when I look at it, as far as him being under Young Thugs label, 300 entertainment and him seemingly getting out of his deal calling this album the last one, seeming like it's the last project, he has to turn into the label. I believe that he could set himself up to go to UMG, which is the big dog in the music industry,

because as hot as he is right now, I think he could probably negotiate a favorable deal, especially for the long-term career for Gunna. So anyways, this is longest album ever for Gunna continues his post trial run of just completely shifting the game and showcasing how he is one of the more impactful artists that we've seen in quite some time. So with that being said, ultimately, the album's fire. I haven't finished it yet, but of course, I'm at, let me see, I'm at again.

So I'm enough tracks in to say that this track is, or this project is straight fire. but you know i still got i still got another half to go it's our name in this so you know i still got some time but with that being said uh click my link sure in my bio let me know one of my social medias what do you think about gunna's latest album the last one and why do you think everybody switched up on young thug
