I Was Just Thinking Archives - New Hip Hop News

Gunna is obviously happy to have his freedom back after spending months behind bars awaiting trial on RICO charges. Since coming home, the DS4EVER artist has sadly become something of an outcast in the world of rap. Many who previously embraced Gunna have now turned their backs on him. In face, some have even gone so far as to accuse the YSL artist of snitching on Young Thug. While the So Much Fun hitmaker remains in jail, his frequent collaborator made a triumphant comeback with his new a Gift & a Curse album on Friday (June 16), which is now being followed with a music video.

Gunna unleashed the visual for “i was just thinking” on Monday (June 19) afternoon. The southern star – usually known for taking bold fashion risks – keeps it simple in the footage. He confidently raps over the Aviator Keyyz, Rick Anthony, and Sammy Haig-produced track in an all-black outfit. “I was just thinkin’ ’bout the times I was hard-headed / Thought it was right all along, I was misled,” he reflects.

Gunna Keeps it Simple in His Latest “a Gift & a Curse” Visual

“All this weight on my back feelin’ so heavy, these boys claim they want war, well, I’m war ready / I had to bake cake for the boy ’cause he playin’ petty,” Wunna continues, making it clear he’s heard the allegations from his haters. “I done gained a whole lot of more opps, now I’m home / Ni**as’ nose all in mine, don’t know how to mind they own / 23 and one, how you feel when you alone?” his bars continue, causing some serious reflection amongst hip-hop heads.

Check out Gunna’s new visual for “i was just thinking,” which follows last week’s “back to the moon” music video, on YouTube above.

The post Gunna Shares “i was just thinking” Music Video Following New Album appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

Earlier this week, Gunna celebrated his 30th birthday by announcing a project called A Gift & A Curse. It was not clear whether this was just a song or a full-blown album; it’s out today, and it’s a 15-track LP.

The rapper touches on some of the trouble he’s been in lately in his raps. He was released from jail in December and many accused Gunna of “snitching” on the remaining YSL defendants, including Young Thug. This is confronted on the track “I Was Just Thinking,” which name-drops Young Thug by referring to him as “King Slime”:

“N****s’ nose all in mine, don’t know how to mind they own
Twenty-three and one, how you feel when you alone?
That’s four walls talkin’ to you, tellin’ you you gone
Only I done cried ‘causе this feelin’ for my bro (King Slime)
And you know my mind, you done watched that n**** grow
Know you hearin’ the lies that your lil’ brother might fold
Yeah, I had popped out, but don’t let ’em say I told
No, I ain’t you lil’ boys, I’ma show you that I’m grown”
