American rapper Gunna and Nigerian global superstar Burna Boy have joined forces for the music video release of their new single, “WGFT,” an electric fusion of Atlanta trap and Afro-fusion rhythm. The video, released on November 4, 2025, arrives as one of the flagship visuals from Gunna’s latest album, The Last Wun, and showcases two artists at the peak of their international influence.

The song short for “We Gon’ Fck Tonight”* threads Gunna’s melodic flow with Burna Boy’s signature warmth and vocal grit. Together, they’ve crafted a sonic space that transcends region or genre, capturing the evolving pulse of modern global music.

A Cinematic Visual That Mirrors Luxury And Depth

Directed with a minimalist yet cinematic edge, the “WGFT” video balances luxury and storytelling. The opening sequence glows in deep neon hues, setting a moody tone that complements the track’s introspection and swagger.

Gunna, known for his effortless composure, delivers his verses surrounded by sleek architecture and subtle opulence. Burna Boy, in contrast, commands his moments with rhythmic power and intensity, a reminder of why he’s one of Africa’s most globally resonant voices.

The production, handled by Turbo and Shootie, weaves together 808-driven trap beats with tropical percussion and layered synths. It’s a soundscape that feels equally at home in Atlanta’s club scene and Lagos’ nightlife proof of how fluid today’s music landscape has become.

Bridging Cultures Through Sound

The collaboration underscores an important moment in global music: the deepening link between U.S. hip-hop and Afrobeats/Afrofusion.

For Gunna, “WGFT” reinforces his evolution beyond American rap circles, positioning him as a player in the global conversation. For Burna Boy, it’s another international milestone in a career defined by borderless sound following previous collaborations with artists like 21 Savage, J Balvin, and Ed Sheeran.

Their chemistry feels organic. Gunna’s controlled, melodic cadence flows naturally alongside Burna’s dynamic delivery. Each artist enhancing the other without compromise.

Since its premiere, “WGFT” has gained major traction online. Within 48 hours, the video amassed over 5 million views across platforms, with fans praising its sleek visual tone and transatlantic synergy.

On TikTok and X (formerly Twitter), clips of Burna’s verse quickly went viral, while Gunna’s chorus sparked a new wave of dance and styling edits. Music critics have called it “a clean, confident bridge between Atlanta rhythm and Afro soul.”

Streaming trends show WGFT climbing multiple playlists, including Spotify’s RapCaviar and Apple Music’s Global Top 100, hinting that the record could achieve simultaneous charting in both the U.S. and Africa.

Context Within “The Last Wun”

“WGFT” lands as one of the defining tracks on Gunna’s The Last Wun, an album that leans into introspection while preserving his signature flow. The project reflects a more reflective side of the Atlanta rapper, exploring themes of time, loyalty, and perseverance with WGFT offering the album’s emotional centerpiece.

For Burna Boy, the feature extends his ongoing streak of high-profile collaborations that amplify African artistry within the global mainstream. His presence on WGFT feels deliberate, as though the record was built for him.

What Comes Next

With WGFT already making waves across continents, industry insiders expect a possible remix rollout before the end of the year potentially with Afro-house influences to tap deeper into African markets.

Both artists have upcoming tour cycles, and sources close to Burna Boy’s camp hint that a joint live performance could be in discussion, though no official confirmation has been made.

A Moment That Transcends Geography

At its core, “WGFT” isn’t just about two artists collaborating. It’s about what happens when rhythm travels and refuses to come back the same.

It’s the sound of Lagos meeting Atlanta, of confidence meeting craft, and of artists creating not just for markets but for culture itself.
