Day 28

Drip or Drown by Gunna

I’ve been sitting on this one for a while. One of my best friends texted me this morning and said it was a young gunna wunna type of day. I think it’s only right I pull this one off the shelf.

Sophomore year of college I lived with 6 dudes in an apartment. One bathroom.

One of my best friends was a Gunna fan. I hadn’t really gotten the hype but I knew it was around. I had a handful of friends that were stuck in slime szn but I had managed to refrain, although I didn’t know why.

My best friend got me on the wave when we found out Drip or Drown 2 came out. I saw he had a song named Derek Fisher and I was sold.

Some of my best friends and I took a class in college that was a breeze. There were a few hunnies in there too that made it all that much worthwhile. I ended up having a huge crush on one of them by the end of the semester.

Something I’ve always admired about one of my boys is he has always gone to the beat of his own drum. He knows his limits and boundaries but is a blast to be around. I can go him about anything – he always has that calm demeanor like a James Bond character. Just all around a cool dude. That said, sometimes he’s just in his own world, almost like a space cadet.

Literally. He said he saw aliens once.

Class had started and my guy was nowhere to be found. About five minutes in, he strolled in with the corded Iphone headphones. One in, one out. You could hear Young Gunna Wunna slipping through the speakers.

The whole class stopped, but he was vibin’. He comes up to me and goes “what you know about that young gunna wunna?!” and dapped me up. A slight hiccup in the class but a day I’ll never forget with one of my absolute best friends in the world.

We’ve been gunna fans/best friends ever since. During COVID we actually got so bored we wrote lyrics to this song and sent them to each other. I really wish I still had that video.
