On May 07, 2024, during the rapper's famous Fukumean track, released in 2023, the attendees can be seen syncing and dancing to the beat. The balcony of Fox Theatre in Detroit, Michigan, can be seen visibly shaking in the videos circulating online.

The audience's enthusiastic response to Fukumean is because of the track, renowned for its high-energy vibe and Gunna's melodies.

According to Live Nation, Fukumean was Gunna's first song to chart No. 1 on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.

Per Live Nation, Gunna has started an initiative with his Bittersweet Tour to donate $1 of each ticket sold to his non-profit organization "Gunna's Great Giveaway" and support Atlanta, GA. He has partnered with the Black Music Action Coalition (BMAC) and Live Nation for this cause.

Regardless of the circumstances, fans remain enthusiastic about attending the rapper's concert.
