Fans Speculate 21 Savage’s New Song “Letter to My Brudda” Takes Aim at Gunna

The release of 21 Savage’s highly anticipated album, American Dream, on January 12, has stirred speculation among fans regarding a potential diss aimed at Gunna in the track “Letter to My Brudda.” The song, believed to be a dedication to Young Thug, includes lines that fans interpret as addressing someone who may have turned informant.
In the lyrics, 21 Savage raps, “Once you cross that line, it ain’t no tryin’ to fix it. You want me to forgive you, let’s be realistic. I can’t kick it with your kind like I tore my meniscus. How do you go from codefendant to a fkin’ witness? They’ll stand on couches with you, but won’t stand on business. Woah, I watched everybody turn on my brother like he ain’t have ’em out here flyin’ jets and fkin’ b***s. This st ridiculous.”
This isn’t the only instance on the album where 21 Savage addresses the issue of informants. In tracks like “Redrum” and “Red Sky,” he continues to speak out against those he perceives as betraying trust.
On social media platforms like X, formerly Twitter, fans have been sharing their thoughts on what they believe to be veiled references to Gunna. Some doubt a future collaboration between 21 Savage and Gunna, referencing the lyrics, “How you go from co-defendant to a f***ing witness.” The alleged diss has sparked discussions among hip-hop enthusiasts, with opinions varying on the matter.
Gunna, who took a plea deal in the YSL RICO case in December 2022, has faced criticism and controversy within the hip-hop community for his admission that YSL is a violent street gang during the plea hearing. While Gunna and his attorney maintain that this plea doesn’t impact Young Thug’s case, the rapper has become a polarizing figure recently, with artists and fans expressing divergent views on the matter. Young Thug’s father has notably defended Gunna in response to the criticism
