The Last Wun

About

With an album title like <i>The Last Wun</i>, speculation is bound to fly about Gunna’s future with—or without—his longtime label home YSL Record. Perpetuating his penchant for portraiture, the Cubist cover art conspicuously obscures his face even more so than on 2024’s <i>One of Wun</i> and further adds to the mysteriousness of these proceeding. Still, considering the repeated successes he’s enjoyed over the past decade, both solo and with hitmakers like Drake and Lil Baby, this sprawling set makes for an impressive send-off, one indicative of his commitment to quality. Victory laps don’t always yield the best result, but <i>The Last Wun</i> stands apart, staying consistently interesting throughout its more than two dozen song. “pushin P” fans don’t have to wait long for new meme-ready moments like “let that sink in” and “just say dat,” though later cuts like the defiant “cfwm” and “him all along” are well worth sticking around for. His moneyed, jet-setting lifestyle matches a perpetual grindset mentality, evident on “showed em” and “on me.” Still, he remains a hedonist at heart, feeling faded yet tenacious on “again” and similarly invested in his pleasure on “gp.” .
