It looks like Westside Gunn’s retirement will be short lived. He has announced that he has a new album on the way.
As reported by HipHopDX the Buffalo, New York rapper is preparing the third installment to one of his most revered series. On Monday, July 22 he took to X, formerly Twitter, to make the announcement. “This ALBUM IS KRAAAAAZY!!!! I had to Bring the Mask back out bc this sh*t toooo RAW & DUSTY, I know the game Miss me even though my kids been doing a great job with entertaining… YOUR FATHERS BACK HOME @griseldarecords x MICHELLE” he wrote. The following day he posted a snippet to a song from the project featuring Stove God Cooks titled “BIG DUMP”.
Last year the Griselda Records founder announced that he would be retiring from making albums. In an interview with Rolling Stone Magazine he explained his reasoning to fall back. “It’s back to dumping until I don’t want to dump no more. I’m going to have fun now. It’s no more pressure” he explained. “This album [And Then You Pray For Me] was pressure to me. I’m testing the waters on a few different things, but it’s all me. It’s not like I’m going out of the box with it or I’m not being me. I’m still me, it’s just kind of a different sound. But at the same time, I don’t know how long I want to ride for.”
