Florida’s C Stunna (@cstunna2xx) is turning up the heat; all gas, no breaks, this summer. The acclaimed hip-hop sensation releases his highly anticipated Gangsta Grillz mixtape, Still Stuntin, hosted by none other than the legendary DJ Drama. Still Stuntin emphasizes C Stunna’s nature of flexing, with Drama’s energetic productions, providing a curated sound of high-energy, heavy-hitting tracks. With DJ Drama at the helm, Still Stuntin is a natural evolution and elevation from his previous projects. Check out the project here.

The tape is home to the buzzing single “Curtis Jackson” ft. Skrilla, which generated over 250,000 streams on Spotify and 1.2 million views on YouTube, and “Lose Control,” ft. Real Boston Richey, a bass-heavy slapper that sees the two quite literally losing control and turning up in the city. Standout track “No Pad or Pen” features a standout verse from Luh Tyler, and “We The Ones” boasts an appearance from Wizz Havinn. Amidst all the star power, C Stunna makes sure to put on for his city, recruiting South Florida associates Fatpocket, Jimbo World, T Row and Woodboy Gee for the final track “Freakneak.” 

Still Stuntin isn’t just a regular project —it’s a certified Gangsta Grillz mixtape. The chemistry between Drama and Stunna is clear, and Drama’s hosting of the tape serves as a stamp of approval synonymous with hip-hop excellence.

I’ve been waiting to give the world this tape,” C Stunna said. “I know it’s gonna shake the streets up. This tape is also a part of history too, working with Drama! ‘Still Stuntin’ is gonna be one of the best tapes of the year.”

Still Stuntin is C Stunna’s first full-length project of 2024, arriving in the wake of a breakout year for the respected rapper. Last summer, he took the stage at Spotify’s Most Necessary Live concert in Miami. The show was graced with surprise performances by Kodak Black and Nardo Wick.

His fanbase has grown exponentially, with performances at Rolling Loud Miami and Rolling Loud California opening the doors to new fanbases.
