Social media has been buzzing with Gunna versus R. Kelly debates. This comes after a video emerged showing an Atlanta nightclub coming to a halt when Gunna’s new song was played. Fans took to Twitter to express their thoughts, questioning why the rapper was being ostracized. They pointed out that people still listened to and defended R. Kelly despite his decades of sexual misconduct and imprisonment. Some argued that it was hypocritical to condemn Gunna while still supporting other artists with controversial backgrounds. Some praise people like such as Kodak Black and Dr. Dre, calling them legends, even given their controversies. They felt that Gunna should receive love and support despite his plea deal in the YSL RICO case.
However, there were others who defended R. Kelly and were disgusted by the comparison between Gunna and the disgraced R&B singer. They argued that Gunna being labeled a snitch was different from R. Kelly’s alleged predatory behavior towards women. R. Kelly has been behind bars since June 2022 and was convicted in a federal sexual assault case. He received a 20-year sentence. Gunna, on the other hand, was released from jail in December. The rapper pleaded guilty to a racketeering conspiracy charge as part of the YSL indictment.

Gunna’s recent release from incarceration might have been good for him on a personal level. However, it certainly hasn’t shielded him from intense scrutiny. In fact, he’s currently facing heightened criticism. This stems primarily from his alleged betrayal by snitching on Young Thug. Of course, he vehemently denies these allegations, even after accepting a plea deal in the trial. Numerous former friends and collaborators have distanced themselves from Gunna. Boosie Badazz even said that he wouldn’t entertain a collaboration with the artist. Apparently, he wouldn’t do it even for a staggering sum of $1 billion.
Moreover, Lil Gotit recently took to Instagram to vent his frustrations about Gunna. He boldly declared that it’s the end for the 29-year-old rapper. These sentiments seem to align with a video that has gone viral on Twitter. The video, which is linked above, showcases an Atlanta nightclub coming to a screeching halt when Gunna’s verse in 21 Savage’s track “Can’t Leave Without It” is played. The video was subsequently shared on Instagram. What do you think of the R. Kelly vs. Gunna debate? Do you think that the rapper is being treated unfairly? Let us know in the comments below!
