DS4EVER is certainly a good mainstream rap record, and fans of Gunna and the community of high-profile Atlanta artists he's aligned with will find plenty to enjoy across the album's 19 tracks.

As Gunna would say, he's 'Pushin P' throughout the project, trying as much as he can, working with new artists and producers, never lacking on the creativity to come up with a really cool mixtape that's doesn't get stale even for a second.

When WUNNA came out I finally understood where Gunna's music works, DS4EVER however regresses his sound back to his more boring roots.
