Griselda Records founder Westside Gunn revealed on Saturday’s episode of the Joe Budden podcast that he has officially parted ways with Eminem’s Shady Records.
Gunn was asked about his connection with and status in Shady records. Thats when he revealed that he was no longer with the label. In fact, he has been off the label since his latest release, Who Made The Sunshine, which dropped back in early October.
“Um, I’m off Shady. I’m actually a free agent. It feels great. Who Made The Sunshine was it. I already spoke to Paul [Rosenberg]. Everything’s good. Like, everything’s signed, sealed and delivered, I have my paperwork, like, I’m off Shady,” Gunn said.
“I’m one of those type of dudes, I’m not no public talking nigga,” Gunn said. He added, “That’s just how I move. It’s 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’s 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’m never gonna play that sucka role.”
Having been signed to Shady Records since 2017, Gunn has released a number of projects through his Griselda label since then. Who Made The Sunshine was his debut album on Shady Records, however, Gunn has noted that he has felt disappointed by the labels promotion of his album. Eminem posted on social media about the release of The Alchemist’s latest album The Food Villain, but did not promote Gunn’s album. The label also failed to acknowledge that Griselda was nominated at the 2020 BET Awards.

Keyshia Cole’s Instagram Drama, Reactivation Sparks Firestorm Over Hunxho’s Steamy Shots with Gloss Up
Keyshia Cole’s Instagram Drama, Reactivation Sparks Firestorm Over Hunxho’s Steamy Shots with Gloss Up
Keyshia Cole‘s Instagram hiatus was short-lived, but the drama it stirred certainly wasn’t. The R&B star recently made waves by deactivating and then reactivating her account, all to address the sizzling controversy surrounding her boyfriend, Hunxho, and Gloss Up’s latest collaboration.
Earlier today, Gloss Up dropped the music video for their joint track “Come Here,” sending fans into a frenzy. But while the audience was grooving to the beat, Keyshia Cole was feeling anything but love. The video showcased Gloss Up and Hunxho in intimate scenes, from twerking to bathtub hangs, raising eyebrows especially since Cole and Hunxho only recently went public with their relationship.
In a swift social media move, Cole briefly disappeared from Instagram, prompting speculation. But Gloss Up’s subsequent posts, featuring cozy shots with Hunxho and suggestive captions, sparked Cole’s reactivation and a fiery clapback.
“Him playing the ‘sneaky link’ while I’m here thinking marriage? That’s just low,” Cole exclaimed, punctuating her response with laughter. Despite her disappointment, she extended well wishes to Gloss Up’s project, albeit with a hint of sarcasm.
The timeline of the photos remains a point of contention, with Cole asserting they were taken pre-relationship. Yet, Gloss Up’s persistent taunting on social media, including retweets hinting at a prior connection with Hunxho, keeps the tension alive.
As the internet buzzes with opinions on Gloss Up’s video and Cole’s candid reaction, Hunxho himself has remained relatively silent, save for a cryptic tweet. The drama continues to unfold, leaving fans eager for more updates.
What’s your take on Gloss Up’s provocative video and Cole’s unfiltered response? Join the conversation below, and stay tuned to Honk Magazine for the latest developments.
