Last week, Chloe Bailey officially began her solo career with the release of “Have Mercy.” She also delivered an exuberant performance of her debut single at the 2021 MTV VMAs. The performance featured a unique moment that impressed many: her licking the microphone towards the end of the performance. That includes Gunna, who took to Instagram to show her love.

The rapper reposted an image of the moment, writing, “It’s the [tongue emoji] for me.” Chloe recently spoke about the moment in an Instagram post. “I swear i didn’t even know i licked the mic til after i watched the performance back,” she wrote under an image of the moment.

Chloe recently addressed claims that she is dating Future. “I don’t know where that rumor came from,” she said on Instagram Live. “He’s a wonderful fella, love his music, I’ve never spoken to him a day in my life.”

Some people also claimed that is in the Illuminati, which she adamantly denied. “One moment you all say that I talk about God too much and the next you say I’m selling my soul. Which is it, my loves?” she said. “I love God so much and I love music, and I just have a lot of passion. That’s it.” She added, “I didn’t sell my soul, no.”

This week, YSL Records rapper Gunna became the latest entertainer from the hip-hop world to be honored with a hometown holiday as South Fulton, Georgia declared September 16 Gunna Day to honor the rapper’s philanthropic efforts in the area. Gunna hails from neighboring College Park and has focused his community outreach in the area through projects like Gunna’s Drip Closet and Goodr Grocery Store. In addition, his Gunna Great Giveaway Foundation has hosted free grocery stores in the community and helped families in Houston, Texas survive this year’s winter storms after the intense cold disrupted the city’s infrastructure.

South Fulton Mayor William “Bill” Edwards announced the honor at a special event on Thursday, saying, “I hereby proclaim Sept. 16 as Sergio Giavanni ‘Gunna’ Kitchens Day in the City of South Fulton.” He also presented the rapper with a proclamation noting his efforts which read, “Gunna is committed to giving back to the community that raised him, buffered him, sheltered him and supported him by creating Gunna’s Drip Closet and Goodr Grocery Store, which is set to provide students of McNair Middle School with access to free meals, clothing, and toiletries for years to come.”

Earlier this year, Gunna and his YSL labelmates also hosted dinner for 30 Fulton County Jail inmates and their families after paying their bail, celebrating with the video for “Paid The Fine.” Previously, Houston’s Travis Scott was honored with his own “Astroworld Day” in 2018.

Gunna And Producer Taurus Come Out On Top ‘9 Times Outta 10’ In Their Confident Video

by

Gunna has spent most of the year teasing the release of his next album, Drip Season 4., which will be the first installment in the rapper’s trademark series, which started in 2013. So far he had yet to share a single from it. That changed on Wednesday with the release of “9 Times Outta 10.”

The track, which boasts production from Taurus, finds Gunna flaunting his winning ways and bragging about his ability to make money and stay ahead of the competition, even when they try to bring him down. The single is also accompanied by a video that shows the bright and dark moments of the rapper’s life.

Drip Season 4 will be Gunna’s first full-length release since he dropped Wunna last spring. The album, which had features from Young Thug, Roddy Ricch, Lil Baby, Travis Scott, and more, became one of the most popular hip-hop releases of 2020. Gunna also appeared a few times on YSL’s compilation album Slime Language 2, which was released earlier this year.

Recently Gunna collaborated with Polo G for “Waves” and Lil Tecca on “Repeat It.”
