Hip Hop fans are still wondering what Gunna’s next move will be. After being released from jail in December, the rapper hasn’t made much movement in his career or social media. He was initially a part of the first string of arrests tied to the YSL RICO case. Gunna, Young Thug, and over two dozen of their purported associates were detained on charges related to several crimes. It was alleged that YSL was a criminal street organization, but Thugger and his supporters have insisted it is only a record label.
Meanwhile, Gunna was the first to accept a plea deal to taste freedom. He has flown under the radar, but DJ Akademiks claims to have inside information. “I think he’s cooked up an album. From what I heard, he has an album ready,” Akademiks said while on Livestream. “He has an album discussing a bunch of sh*t. He’s got an album, he’s got some sh*t to say. But there’s nobody down to stand with him.”
Akademiks Speculates About Gunna’s Future
“So, it becomes one of those situations where, yeah, how good could you make a case if everybody’s leaving you on an island. So, I think Gunna is kinda in limbo, waiting to see what happens with Thug. I think he’s praying that Thug gets a favorable outcome. Or he’s probably praying that, you know, despite what might happen to Thug, that Thug has some type of grace for him.”
The rant was all speculative, as Gunna hasn’t spoken out much. He and his lawyer have repeatedly denied snitching allegations, and Gunna emerged on Instagram to give a shoutout to Thug. However, Akademiks shared what he’s heard down the grapevine, while Hip Hop awaits more from Gunna himself. “I think, if you ask me, these are just my thoughts. I think if Thugger gets 20 years or 15 years, I think Gunna will try to proposition this offer to them: ‘Yo, how ’bout if y’all give me that co-sign that I need to get the snitch thing off of me, to get that jacket off of me, I’ll give a bigger percentage of my earnings to Thugger.’”

Additionally, Akademiks claimed that he also heard that Gunna was making moves to leave YSL. Because the relationship is “fractured,” Akademiks said there is no way Gunna can go through something like this with the label and come out on the other side. Check out more from DJ Akademiks above.
