One of Wun is the fifth studio album by American rapper Gunna. It was released under license to YSL Records and 300 Entertainment on May 10, 2024.[1] The album features guest appearances from Offset, Normani, Leon Bridges, and Roddy Ricch. Production was handled by a variety of record producers, including Turbo, Teddy Walton, and Larrance Dopson, among others. It serves as the follow-up to Gunna's previous album, A Gift & a Curse (2023), in which he embarked on the Bittersweet and Wun of Dem Nights tours to support both albums. The album was supported by three singles: "Prada Dem", "WhatsApp (Wassam)", and its title track, the former of which features Offset.
Background and promotion
[edit | edit source]Gunna released the lead single of the album, "Prada Dem", which features fellow American rapper Offset, on March 15, 2024.[2] Exactly a month later, he announced the title of the album and revealed its cover art, while its release date was still unknown at the time. On May 3, 2024, he released the second single, "WhatsApp (Wassam)", and announced the release date of the album.[3] The title track of the album was sent to US rhythmic radio as the third and final single of the album on May 28, 2024.[4]

Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork wrote that the tracks on One of Wun "sound like catchy Gunna songs of the past—he's still able to float on these laid-back, skittering ATL trap variants while reading straight off his SSENSE receipt—but they don't feel like them. He's going through the motions."[6] Demi Phillips of HotNewHipHop stated, "One of Wun is definitely evidence of Gunna's melodic prowess and his established place in the trap genre. However, while the album showcases his signature sound and lyrical themes, it also reveals areas where the artist could have stretched his creative boundaries further. The album's production is polished, with Gunna's flow as precise as ever, but it often treads familiar ground." Phillips described the production to be "not at all shoddy" and "very cohesive", before writing "However, for a 20-track album, this sometimes borders on monotonous. Unfortunately, there are moments that lead to a sense of redundancy, especially as the album progresses. The album also seems to need a more specific lyrical depth that could have provided a more explicit understanding of Gunna as an artist. Many tracks don't venture into new lyrical territory that might have offered a fresh perspective on Gunna's experiences."[7]
Commercial performance
[edit | edit source]One of Wun debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 dated May 25, 2024, with 91,000 album-equivalent units (including 1,000 in pure album sales) in its first week. It is Gunna's sixth top ten album. The album also accumulated a total of 118.5 million on-demand streams of the album's songs. [8]
