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.

Tiffany Haddish’s African Grocery Store Visit Sparks Debate, Is She a Trailblazer or Out of Touch?
Tiffany Haddish is at the center of controversy after a video of her visit to a grocery store in Zimbabwe went viral. In the clip, Haddish marvels at the store’s size and the availability of items like sugar cane and organic strawberries, which she seemed to find surprising.
The reaction from viewers has been mixed. Some applauded her for challenging stereotypes about Africa, while others mocked her for acting as if the continent lacked modern amenities. One user on X quipped, “Tiffany Haddish, the first woman to discover a grocery store in Africa,” while another expressed confusion over her reaction, questioning why she seemed surprised by the store’s offerings.
In response to the backlash, Haddish took to X to clarify her intentions. She emphasized that her goal was to “demystify” Africa and encourage more Black Americans to visit.
This incident follows another controversial trip earlier this year, when Haddish visited Israel amid ongoing conflicts, a move that drew criticism for its insensitivity. Despite the recent backlash, Haddish remains active, with her latest project being the memoir I Curse You With Joy, which has garnered positive reviews for its candidness.
In an era where public figures must tread carefully, it seems Haddish’s words continue to spark debate, whether she’s on a global adventure or sharing her personal experiences.
