Gunna continues to promote his new album, One Of Wun, showing that there’s always work to be done to keep the momentum of a project moving. Two weeks ago, he released the video for the title track, and today, he follows up with the video for “Today I Did Good,” showing off all the hard work it takes to stay on top of his game.
The video follows a day in Gunna’s life, seen from his perspective (complete with a blinking eye effect!) as he breakfasts at a hotel in Rome, takes in a fashion show, boards a plane to Johannesburg in South Africa to shoot a video with Tyla, heads to London, then pulls up to Ohio State University to perform the first show of his Bittersweet Tour, and finally heads to Los Angeles for a photoshoot. And yes, all this is done in the space of a day, once you account for time zones. When exactly he sleeps remains a mystery, and honestly, I hope he’s scheduling enough downtime to ensure that getting enough rest.
Watch Gunna’s “Today I Did Good” video above.

One thing fans have learned about Gunna is that he loves to make a music video. Every album cycle of his comes with several visuals. a Gift & a Curse came with six videos for the album’s fifteen tracks. His latest album, One of Wun,is no different. After releasing videos for “whatsapp (wassam),” “back in the a” and “Prada Dem” with Offset, Gunna is back with the fourth video of this album cycle. “today i did good,” a more understated cut than the high-energy tracks Gunna is most known for, is the latest from the album to receive a video.
“today i did good” is Gunna celebrating himself. He applauds himself for getting on a diet (“I ain’t been eating no bullsh*t”). His fitness journey is one he’s documented himself for the last few years. He thanks God that he’s still rich, and talks about his bachelor life. The beat is mellower than one may expect from a Gunna track, and overall, it’s pleasant to listen to. The video, directed by Spike Jordan, is as impressive.
The video itself is Gunna going through several days in his life. The video is also shot on a GoPro-like camera. It gives viewers his point of view in a way that would be similar to how Gunna himself goes through the day. He also time stamps every major point in the day. The video begins with him working out in Rome at 4:45 AM. From there, he eats breakfast, gets dressed, and leaves his hotel at 9:38 AM. He goes clothes shopping and then goes to a fashion show. Gunna leaves Rome at almost 7PM, and heads to South Africa to shoot the video for Tyla’s “Jump,” a track he features on. The scenes in South Africa follow a similar format. After his day in South Africa, he briefly heads to Los Angeles. He then goes to Ohio State University’s Schottenstein Center, the location of the first show of his Bittersweet Tour.
The video’s ending scene is from a photoshoot for P, Gunna’s clothing brand. Following the shoot, they return a room to in a scene that suggests a deluxe version of One of Wun is on the way. There are two pieces of art. One is the album’s standard art. Instead of the standard’s blue and white flowers, the other piece of art shows his head covered with orange and yellow flowers. The video’s last message is essentially telling viewers to make the most of their day. Gunna also wants his fans to not listen to what other people think of them. It’s a nice message to end a very well-crafted music video for one of the more underrated tracks on One of Wun. Watch the video above.
Continuing a prolific run, four-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum Atlanta rap superstar Gunna has revealed the music video for his new single “today I did good.” Once again, he re-teamed with frequent collaborator and director Spike Jordan to capture this visual from while Gunna was on the road in places such as Rome, London, South Africa and more.
If you’ve ever wondered what a day in Gunna’s shoes would be like, the video answers that question. It quite literally assumes the rapper’s point-of-view as he wakes up in Rome before dawn, chooses his jewelry, steps out of his hotel room, and starts his day. It follows him through breakfast and blunt smoke as he makes his way to the front row of an Emilio Pucci fashion show.
Ultimately, the clip pulls audiences deeper into his world and affirms his status as one of the hardest working men in show business.
Gunna’s fifth studio album One of Wun notably marks his first full-length release since his 2023 chart topping album a Gift & a Curse. The 20-track album boasts superstar collaborations with Offset, Normani, Leon Bridges and Roddy Ricch.

Jon B is not an S-tier R&B singer, but he’s got classic songs. So many classics, in fact, that he’s become a popular source for samples. A little Jon B goes a long way in giving a song a retro, 90s feel. Gunna and Chloe Bailey were going for this precise feel on their 2022 collab, “You & Me.” Unfortunately, they didn’t clear the sample of Jon B’s “They Don’t Know” that plays throughout the song. Jon B was not pleased when he found out, and he let it be known how much he hated the new song during a recent interview with Can We Talk RNB.
The R&B singer went on the podcast shortly after the Gunna and Chloe Bailey single dropped. He did not mince words when asked what he thought of the sample. Jon B said he “couldn’t stand” what the artists had done to his original composition. He dubbed their version of “They Don’t Know” as “ratchet,” and he lamented that “You & Me” ever saw the light of day. “My lane is my lane… I earned that,” Jon B explained. “Just like, if you made a hit, in your area… I’m not just gonna come into your area and take your joint and make it mine. And then not pay you.” Damn, tell us how you really feel, Jon.
The criticisms didn’t stop there. The singer accused Gunna of failing to clear the sample, which could result in legal action. “They never got my rights to do the record,” he asserted.” Jon B is obviously not a fan of the Gunna and Chloe Bailey collab. That said, he understands that music is subjective. He told Can We Talk RNB he was more bothered by the lack professionalism with regards to clearances. “Gunna we got to holler about that,” he stated. “That’s some business sh*t we got to handle.”
Jon also had some strong words for his blue-eyed successor, Justin Timberlake. During the podcast appearance, the singer laid into Timberlake’s latest single, “No Angels.” He was somehow even more brutal with JT than Gunna or Chloe Bailey. “That new single is trash,” he plainly stated. “I’m not feeling his music at all anymore. And the video is even more trash.” One of the few people Jon B has has nice words for, ironically, is everybody’s enemy in 2024: Drake. The 6 God sampled Jon B on his 2011 opus Take Care, and the latter gave love in return. “One of the most humble ppl I’ve met in the industry,” he wrote on Facebook in 2012. “It’s nice to know the respect is mutual. Big up Drake.”
About a month and a half ago, Gunna shared some insight as to what his intentions are for his next album. “I might do this love album. Not all love songs but just a pocket of songs that’s more intimate. I think that’s going to be the next album for me”, he told Spotify for their A Day In The Life series. There is no current timetable for when this will come to fruition, but fans are hoping its sooner than later. In fact, it just might be because Gunna was in Paris teasing a song with LeBron James in attendance. According to Kurrco, the rapping and NBA superstars were seen at some sort of event post the Olympic games. Perhaps it was after Team USA’s win over Puerto Rico in their final group stage game on Saturday.
Regardless, Gunna and LeBron James were clearly chopping it up and having a good time while in France. Down below, you can hear the snippet, and it sounds fire. It sounds braggadocious and atmospheric as per usual, so it appears that Gunna isn’t ready to tease any love cuts just yet. Overall, like the album, fans are wanting this unreleased record ASAP.
“Streets need that”, one user on X writes. Another makes a clever pun regarding Gunna’s past hits and to show that Bron is a big fan of the ATL MC, “ebron”. Others are joking that it needs to drop, but only so the NBA legend can start practicing the words. “Bron gotta start learning the song so he know the lyrics when it drops”. Whenever this comes out, it will be the latest offering since his One of Wuntape. However, it will also come after a handful of high profile collabs with Offset and IDK.
What are your thoughts on Gunna’s potentially new song teaser? Do you think he’s got a new album in the works already? How do you feel about him and LeBron James linking up in Paris during the 2024 Paris Olympics? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Gunna and LeBron James. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.
Gunna is giving his latest album One of Wun its fourth set of visuals, as he drops the music video for the title track this weekend. This is follows up on his Atlanta tribute piece for “back to the a”, which is now a month old. Other cuts from his fifth studio effort to receive such treatment include “whatsapp (wassam)” and the most successful collaboration “prada dem” featuring Offset. In the music video for “one of wun”, the most popular track on the record, Gunna commands each sideline on the basketball court. It appears to be a big-time matchup as well, especially just based on the talent that’s on display. According to Uproxx, almost all of the basketball players are sought after high school recruits.
Additionally, there are some Overtime Elite hoopers, a league ran by a sports media company of the same name. It’s helped some athletes reach the NBA level such as recent lottery pick Alex Sarr. If you are wondering who makes appearances in Gunna’s video these are your stars. They are Tyran Stokes, Brandon McCoy Jr., Parker Robinson, Jayden Wilkins, and Romelo Hill. The first two are the top two high school stars in the country, while the latter are all OTE players. Making this a clever video is the fact that it relates to this bar from Gunna, “Think all about how they want me to lose, but I’m W, due for a win“. He literally does take an L and a W at the same, which adds a smidge of comedy into the mix. You can check out the video with the link below.
oday, four-time Grammy Award-nominated, multi-platinum Atlanta rap superstar Gunna unveiled the official music video for his title track “One of Wun,” directed by Spike Jordan and filmed at the Overtime Elite Arena in Atlanta, GA.
The visual places Gunna in a different context altogether. This time around, he assumes the dual-role of two very different coaches competing against one another. Each of his characters masterminds strategy in his own way. One coach quietly orchestrates plays like chess moves, methodically drawing out his vision for victory in the locker room. The other coach takes over the court, commanding the action from the sidelines with authority and bombast. The game intensifies with a championship on the line, but coach Gunna remains calm.
Not to mention, Atlanta’s own DJ Greg Street of V-103 notably cameos in the clip too. Other cast includes Tyran Stokes of Notre Dame High School in Sherman Oaks, CA (#1 ranked player class of 2026), Brandon McCoy Jr. of St. John Bosco in Bellflower, CA (#2 ranked player class of 2026), Grant Nelson of Alabama University Men’s Basketball, Isaiah Elohim of University Southern California Men’s Basketball, comedian and former pro football player Lou Young, and comedian Navv Greene. OTE players are Parker Robinson (Rising Junior), Jayden Wilkins (Rising Sophomore), and Romelo Hill (Rising Junior).
In the video for the title track from Gunna‘s new album, One Of Wun, the Atlanta rapper takes on dual roles, playing both coaches in a high-stakes basketball game between two teams at the Overtime Elite youth basketball league arena. Each version of Gunna is a different coaching stereotype; one is cool, calm, and calculating, while the other is bombastic and demonstrative on the sideline.
Rather than playing out with one team losing and one winning, however, the split-screen video (directed by Spike Jordan) ends with both outcomes, playing on the chorus lyric, “Think all about how they want me to lose, but I’m W, due for a win.” In the end, Gunna gets to have his cake and eat it too, winning no matter what.
A whole slew of real-life rising star high schoolers appears in the video as themselves, including the #1 and #2 ranked players in the country, Tyran Stokes of Notre Dame High School in Sherman Oaks, CA and Brandon McCoy Jr. of St. John Bosco in Bellflower, CA (respectively), and OTE players Parker Robinson, Jayden Wilkins, and Romelo Hill.

In the video, Gunna takes on dual roles as two contrasting coaches competing against each other. One coach, calm and methodical, strategizes in the locker room, treating the game like a chess match. The other, energetic and commanding, drives the action from the sidelines. The tension rises with a championship on the line, but coach Gunna’s poise remains unshaken.
The video features a cameo from Atlanta’s own DJ Greg Street of V-103 and showcases a stellar cast including Tyran Stokes (#1 ranked player, class of 2026, Notre Dame High School, CA), Brandon McCoy Jr. (#2 ranked player, class of 2026, St. John Bosco, CA), Grant Nelson (Alabama University Men’s Basketball), Isaiah Elohim (University of Southern California Men’s Basketball), comedian and former pro football player Lou Young, and comedian Navv Greene.
