Week after week, hip-hop never disappoints when it’s time for new music to drop. This week, an artist who was caught up in the YSL RICO case drops a surprise album, everyone’s favorite rap stoner releases a new mixtape, a rap veteran delivers his sixth full-length solo album and more.

Gunna Drops A Gift & A Curse Project

Since being released from jail after making a plea deal in connection to the YSL RICO case in December of 2022, Gunna has remained relatively quiet until now. On Friday (June 16), the Atlanta rapper dropped his surprise album, A Gift & A Curse.

Earlier this month, Wunna released a song called “Bread & Butter” where he addressed snitching allegations following his release from jail last year.

“Never gave no statement or agreed to take no stand on ’em,” he rapped on the song, surmising that he may have been misled by his attorney and prosecutors in his case. “Lawyers and the DA did some sneaky s**t, I fell for it/On my Ps and Qs because, this time, I be prepared for it, yeah,” he added.

His new album follows his 2022 effort DS4Ever (or Drip Season 4Ever). The LP bolted to the top spot of the Billboard 200 chart for the week of Jan. 22, 2002. The LP’s standout track is “Pushin P,” featuring Young Thug, has now become part of the hip-hop lexicon.
