WIZKID’S COLLABORATION WITH GUNNA ON THE LAST WUN DIVIDES FANS BUT GENERATES GLOBAL EXCITEMENT
Nigerian music sensation Ayodeji “Wizkid” Balogun is back in the global spotlight, this time contributing his vocals to American rapper Gunna’s newly released 25-track album, *The Last Wun*. Released on August 8, 2025, the album marks Gunna’s sixth studio effort and serves as his final release under YSL Records and 300 Entertainment. The project features an impressive lineup, including Offset, Burna Boy, Asake, and Nechie, blending Gunna’s melodic trap sound with Afrobeats, rap, and R&B influences. For many fans, Wizkid’s inclusion was an immediate win. On X (formerly Twitter), user @GucciStarboi expressed their excitement, stating: “Wizkid is no longer a normal human; he’s now a god!!! Jesus, see music.” Others praised Wizkid’s remarkable versatility and his knack for bringing listeners into new musical realms. User @BigMallyX remarked, “Wizkid made me listen to H.E.R., Ella Mai, Damian Marley, Don Toliver, Bucie, Normani, Tay Iwar, Anais Cardot, Jasmine Sullivan, Brent Faiyaz, Skillibeng, Shensea, MHD, Ty Dolla, Swae Lee, Tyga, Lay-Z, and more. Tonight, he’s shaping my music taste again towards trap with his collaboration on Gunna’s upcoming album. This is why he remains the Most Versatile, Successful, and Greatest African/Afrobeats artist.” However, not everyone shares the same sentiment. On Reddit, one listener labeled Wizkid’s performance as the “worst feature” on the album, preferring tracks like "GP" and "Sak Pase." Love it or hate it, one thing is clear Wizkid’s influence continues to transcend borders, genres, and cultures. With *The Last Wun* already generating buzz worldwide, the discussion surrounding this collaboration is only just beginning.
