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.”

You can watch the video for “9 Times Outta 10” above.

Ludacris Recorded Part Of His New Song’ Butter ATL’ With A Mouthful Of Jif Peanut Butter

by

Although it’s been a while since Ludacris last dropped new music — he’s a busy man, after all, what with learning to cook, learning to fly airplanes(!), and starring in the Fast & Furious sequels over the past year or so — he’s found a clever backdoor back into the rap game, combining his love of the culinary arts with his tongue-twisting gift of gab for “Butter ATL,” a slippery new single partially inspired by his Atlanta contemporary Gunna.

Not only does Luda prove adept at adopting the legato flow of his hometown’s current crop of hip-hop stars, but he also gets a little side action as his mention of Jif peanut butter in one of his eye-popping punchlines ties nicely into Jif’s new ad campaign. In the commercial, Luda struggles with finding a new flow to catch the song’s hypnotic beat before getting caught with a mouthful of peanut butter on his next take. His newly muddled attack perks up Gunna in the background, who notes, “That flow crazy.” Luda challenges followers on TikTok to duplicate his feat, inviting them to spit their own verses with a mouthful of Jif.

The ad arrives in midst of a rap resurgence for the Atlanta veteran, who has popped back up with feature verses on Conway The Machine’s “Scatter Brain” with JID and Justin Bieber’s “Peaches” remix and is set to perform at the Lovers & Friends festival in 2022.
