WS Gunn leaves Shady Records, says Griselda biopic would be better than 8 Mile & Get Rich Or Die Tryin’

During a recent appearance on The Joe Budden Podcast, Westside Gunn revealed that he’s off Eminem’s Shady Records. The founder of the almighty Griselda Records told to Joe Budden, Rory and Mal:

“Um, I am off Shady. I am off Shady. I am actually a free agent. It feels great. Who Made The Sunshine album was it. I already spoke to Paul Rosenberg. Everything is good. Like, everything is signed, sealed and delivered I have my paperwork, like I’m off Shady.

“I am one of those type of dudes I am not no public talking ni**a. That is just how I move. It is like saying me and Benny or me and Conway or Conway and Benny or whoever, we might have a disagreement, but the world will never know. We still gonna be brothers and cousins. It is the same way even with business, because at the end of the day, this a big world. Even if somebody else is a sucka, I am never gonna play that sucka role.”

Westside Gunn also talked about the possibility of Griselda biopic, which as he says “will be better than 50 Cent’s Get Rich Or Die Tryin and Eminem’s 8 Mile”

“No disrespect to nobody but Griselda’s story is better than others. Our story is way bigger than Marshall and Fifty and they have got movies. Conway got shot into head twice. We lost Machine Gunn. Ni**as were in prison. Ni**as are from eastside Buffalo. However you wanna play it our story is better.”

50 Cent says Grammy recognized him only because of Eminem

As you might know 50 Cent served as an executive producer for Pop Smoke’s posthumous album “Shoot for the Stars, Aim for the Moon” and the King of the New York predicts that the project will be snubbed at the 2021 Grammy Awards.

“If the album is recognized, it will only get recognized because Pop Smoke is gone. The content is similar to what I would do. They did not recognize mine. They gave me Grammys when I was with Em, when I am on records with Eminem.”

50 Cent has been nominated for 14 times at the Grammys, but he only won in 2010 for Eminem’s “Crack a Bottle” which also features Dr. Dre. Fifty has received nominations for Best Rap Album, Best Rap Song and Best New Artist throughout his career but has won none.

“They are afraid to give Pop Smoke Grammys because they think it is teaching the audience to want to be like Pop. And to be like him is to be a part of gang culture. Who you see get Grammys that is making Drill music? You mean to tell me ain’t none of those songs worthy of it? Those platforms are not for them to acknowledge. It is for the culture, the people to embrace those tones and to really appreciate the artist for doing that.” 50 Cent added.

As far as Eminem, the Rap God has been nominated for 44 times and has won 15 times.
