The man behind "Drip Too Hard" reports live from Paris Fashion Week Men's Fall 2019 before taking in Virgil Abloh's second collection for Louis Vuitton.

It&#39;s safe to say that superstar <a href="https://www.instagram.com/gunna/?hl=en" target="_blank">Gunna</a>&#39;s career has taken off. The Atlanta rapper began his flirtation with music and rapping as a hobby in his early teens,&nbsp;which then kicked into high gear after meeting Young Thug in 2016. All it took was hopping on Thug&#39;s track &quot;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5HBShHQu0Q" target="_blank">Floyd Merryweather</a>,&quot; with Gucci Mane and Travis Scott for the flirtation to burst into a full-blown love affair, resulting in over 14 million monthly listeners and a fan base that includes A$AP Rocky, Drake, and Virgil Abloh.&nbsp;

With his feature on the&nbsp;hit single &quot;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THcVOf1kNh0" target="_blank">Drip Too Hard</a>,&quot; and the highly-anticipated release of his magnum opus Drip or Drown 2 on&nbsp;the way, Gunna&#39;s taken over the world&mdash;Paris Fashion Week Men&#39;s included. Your boy was given only the hottest tickets in town&mdash;Heron Preston, Off-White, Yoji Yamamoto, and Louis Vuitton.&nbsp;

We caught up with Gunna before taking in Abloh&#39;s <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/youre-invited-louis-vuitton-mens-fall-2019" target="_blank">Michael Jackson-inspired show</a> to talk everything&mdash;from how he likes to take&nbsp;his weed, how he&#39;d describe his&nbsp;personal style and the importance of self-care.&nbsp;
