Gunna Finds A Variety Of Tasks ‘Too Easy’ In His New Video With Future And Roddy Ricch

Gunna, Future, and Roddy Ricch try their hands at numerous careers in their tongue-in-cheek “Too Easy” remix video, finding them all, well, too easy. The video is the latest from Gunna’s new mixtape DS4EVER, the fourth and final installment in his long-running Drip Season, which dropped today. While the song itself preceded the release, the video just arrived this morning to pull more eyeballs toward the highly anticipated project.

Among the tasks the three rappers try out, Gunna becomes a wilderness explorer, an expert mountaineer, and a touchdown-grabbing wide receiver. Meanwhile, Future joins Gunna as a pair of news anchors/weathermen who judge a beauty pageant and gets into some Scottish games, including tug-o-war, rock-throwing, and bagpiping. Roddy, meanwhile, becomes a lounge pianist — not far off from his real-life skillset — and gets his Wu-Tang Clan on at a Shaolin temple.

In addition to Future and Roddy, Gunna’s new project has also gotten attention for a number of its other guests including Young Thug, who raps with his protege Gunna on “Pushin P,” Chloe Bailey, who once again sparked dating rumors with Gunna after they were seen holding hands, and 21 Savage, whose punchline comparing Ye and Kim’s divorce to a dropped murder weapon sparked a mini-debate on Twitter about who actually did the dumping.

Watch the “Too Easy” remix video above. DS4EVER is out now on 300 and Atlantic. You can stream it here.

21 Savage Insists Kanye Dumped Kim (And Not The Other Way Around) On Gunna’s New Album

It’s often said that there are two sides to every story and in the case of Kanye West’s ongoing divorce from Kim Kardashian, it looks like he’s sharing his side with friends and collaborators. Although the initial reports had Kim filing for divorce, citing many “little things” that made their differences more apparent, at least one of Kanye’s rapper homies believes it went the other way around.

On “Thought I Was Playing” from Gunna’s new mixtape DS4EVER, fellow Atlanta rapper 21 Savage uses the celebrity split as the subject for a twisted punchline: “SF90 cost a M, dumped his Glock like Ye did Kim.” Fans on Twitter who caught the line sparked a lighthearted but spirited debate about just who dumped whom.

Of course, both stars have since seemingly moved on. Kim has apparently been dating comedian Pete Davidson after remarking that she had no intention of reconciling with Kanye, and while Kanye has made repeated public overtures, even going so far as declaring that God would reunite the couple, he has since also been seen out with a new romantic interest. Actress Julia Fox, with whom Kanye had dinner in New York City, described their date in glowing terms, prompting some fans to give their skeptical impressions of the pairing, drawing comparisons with Fox’s character’s relationship in Uncut Gems.

Gunna, Future, And Young Thug Showcase The Best Of Atlanta With The Confident ‘Pushin P’

It’s been almost two years since Gunna dropped an album for the world to enjoy. That would be his 2020 release Wunna, which showed great growth in the Atlanta rapper’s career and became one of the more beloved rap projects of that year. So what’s next for Gunna? That would be the final installation in his trademark Drip Season mixtape series. The rapper released DS4EVER today and it comes with a healthy cast of guest acts, some of which fans expected and others they did not. An example of the former comes early on the album with “Pushin P” featuring Young Thug and Future.

The track is one Gunna used to promote DS4EVER and announce its release date. “Pushin P” is a braggadocios anthem that captures the three Atlanta-based rap stars in confident spirits thanks to their success in rap, their wealth, and their large collection of lavish items. Prior to the song’s release, Gunna somewhat explained the meaning behind “Pushin P.” “P don’t just mean Playa, P also mean paper too,” he said. “You could be pushing this P with paper too.”

In total, DS4EVER presents 20 tracks and additional features from 21 Savage, Drake, G Herbo, Lil Baby, Kodak Black, Yung Bleu, Chloe Bailey, Nechie, Chris Brown, and Roddy Ricch.

You can listen to “Pushing P” in the video above.

DS4EVER is out now via YSL Records/300 Entertainment. Get it here.
