According to Power 105, the Atlanta rapper also hosted a signing event at DBS Sounds. He gave fans who appeared at the store autographs as well as taking pictures with them. He performed a concert with some of his rapping friends later that evening as he took them to church at the Tabernacle.
Some of those who did share the stage with him throughout the night were Latto, Quavo, and Key Glock. Yet, the surprise of the night belonged to another Atlanta staple, T.I. Letting go of a past dispute with Gucci, the “Rubber Band Man” lyricist stepped on stage with his past rival as they officially squashed their beef.
“Breath of Fresh Air” is Gucci’s 16th studio album and is being distributed by 1017 Global Music/Atlantic Records. The album has already surpassed tens of millions of streams on various platforms.
