Atlanta’s Hip-Hop superstar and Young Thug’s ‘close affiliate’ Gunna, born Sergio Giavanni Kitchens, has premiered the sophomore visual treatment from his fourth studio album “A Gift & A Curse”.
Releasing the visuals for Flo and Dunk Rock-produced “fukumean”, which is the biggest rap record on Gunna’s latest album, Gunna has perhaps tried to lessen the damage done to the LP rollout by Young Thug’s “Business Is Business”.
The NSFW visuals capture Gunna’s extraordinary rap life and involve provocative female galore, sex and even visits to a “Vixen” flagship store.
Last time that a rapper linked up with the West’s adult film industry at scale was “Still Be Friends” by G-Eazy featuring Tory Lanez & Tyga or Juicy J’s sprawling rap record “Bandz A Make Her Dance” featuring Lil Wayne & 2 Chainz over ten years ago.

The hard-hitting visuals serve as the follow-up to “Bread & Butter” by the legendary emcee.
Mired by controversies and “snitching allegations” after Wunna reportedly took an Alford plea in the “YSL RICO Case”, Gunna asserted that he was in fact misled by the district attorney into taking the plea and commented on several people’s response over the incident on the reflective visuals.
These are certainly testing times in Gunna’s rap career. The rapper, who was once considered a close aide of YSL’s influential emcee and rap business mogul Young Thug, stands in the middle of alleged betrayal and snitching on Thugger.
While Thug remains incarcerated to this day, he made unprecedented moves in global rap music by dropping his third LP “Business Is Business”.
The album, which was announced within minutes after Gunna released his 4th studio album, featured some of Hip-Hop’s most influential emcees including Drake, Lil Uzi Vert, Travis Scott, 21 Savage, Future and more.
Further, Thugga linked up with marquee record producers David & Eli, Wheezy, Aviator Keyyz, Kid Masterpiece, D Rich, Dr Luke, FNZ, F1lthy, Allen Ritter, Dre Moon, Southside and more.
Notably, the LP was executive-produced by Metro Boomin who reportedly took just two weeks to produce the entire rap record. Thugger is yet to drop any visual treatment from the album whatsoever. However, a visual premier looks far-fetched at this moment. Thug continues to be incarcerated at ATL’s Fulton County Jail since May last year.
