Griselda Throws Shade at Shady Records on Twitter

Buffalo rap crew and record label, Griselda, which includes Westside Gunn, Conway The Machine and Benny the Butcher, have thrown shade at Eminem’s Shady Records, their parent label.

On Sunday evening (June 28), just ahead of the 2020 BET Awards, Westside Gunn tweeted, “I wonder do @ShadyRecords know we’re nominated for a BET AWARD tonight.” The powerhouse’s official Twitter responded to the tweet using a GIF of Jay-Z from when he performed “Picasso Baby” back in 2013 at Pace Gallery in New York City. In the GIF, Hov is shaking his index finger and mouthing “nah.” Griselda was nominated for Best Group against Chloe x Halle, City Girls, Earthgang, Jackboys and the Migos.

Back in 2017, Shady announced that they signed Griselda, which is also the name of the crew’s label, to an exclusive deal for solo and joint projects from Gunn and Conway. “We’re bringing a new sound to the game, but it’s also reminiscent of the grimey 90’s,” Griselda’s founder said at the time, according to Shady Records. “Art is in everything we do…it’s the essence. We’re fusing boom-bap/dark sounds with the hipster cool kid lifestyle. A new lane is being carved.”

While Em hasn’t addressed the slight jab, this isn’t the first time he’s been called out recently. Last week, an unreleased Eminem verse on Conway The Machine’s “Bang” leaked, which includes disses towards Joe Budden and Revolt TV. Joe didn’t respond to the record, but Revolt did.

“Shout to Puffy Combs, but fuck Revolt,” he raps. “Y’all are like a fucked up remote/Now I get it why our button’s broke/’Cause you pressing him but do nothing though, especially when it comes to punches thrown.”

Revolt replied via social media, writing, “Fuck you too Eminem.”

The Detroit spitter addressed the verse days later, saying it was an unnecessary distraction and that he never intended for the record to be released. He also said the track made its way online following a WeTransfer hack.

    The product appears to be a social media event or incident, rather than a physical product. It involves a person or entity named Griselda expressing criticism or negative comments towards Shady Records on Twitter. This could indicate a conflict or disagreement between the two parties. The impact or significance of this event would largely depend on the context and the individuals involved.

Snoop Dogg Wants To Pay Someone $10,000 A Month To Eat Ice Cream

Snoop Dogg has had a lot of job titles over the years, but “official ice cream taster” wasn’t one of them until now — and he’s hiring someone else to fill it. His company Dr. Bombay just opened applications for the role, and it pays $10,000 a month.

The gig is fully remote and open to anyone on the planet, which Snoop announced himself in a video that’s exactly as laid-back as you’d expect. “I love the paper, but not the paperwork,” he said, explaining that HR firm Deel is handling the logistics while he handles, presumably, the ice cream.

The actual job is less “sit around and eat pints all day” and more part-time cultural scout. Whoever gets it will track flavor and food trends around the world, report back on what people are eating and talking about, and work directly with Dr. Bombay’s in-house flavor lead to help shape what the brand does next. It’s a three-month contractor role, and Snoop’s team says they’re actively looking outside the usual resume pile — creators and non-traditional applicants welcome.

Dr. Bombay itself leans nostalgic, with flavors like Long Beach Fruit Cart, Sticky Caramel Apple Pie, and Peanut Butter Jelly Time already sitting on shelves at Walmart and moving through DoorDash and Instacart. Somewhere out there is one very lucky applicant about to get paid five figures a month to have opinions about ice cream, and honestly, good for them.
