Westside Gunn Laughs At Eminem’s Lack Of “WMTS” Promotion

Eminem’s Shady Records empire has undergone a drastic change since its heydey in the early millennium. Recall a time when 50 Cent, D12, and Obie Trice represented the label with albums like Get Rich Or Die Tryin’, D12 World, and Cheers, all of which featured a heavy presence from Slim Shady himself. Today, Em feels far less removed from the label that bears his name, despite its roster boasting the impressive lineup of Boogie, Westside Gunn, and Conway — all of whom have released projects within the past two years.

And while it was Westside Gunn’s Who Made The Sunshine that marked the most recent Shady Records release, Eminem’s involvement in the album was all-but-nonexistent. That’s not to say Gunn needed or even wanted a Slim feature, but he likely could have benefitted from the legendary rapper’s gargantuan reach. Especially since his temperature toward Shady Records hasn’t always been the most favorable. It’s not entirely uncommon to see him voicing his frustration with the label, especially over matters of exposure and promotion.

Over the weekend, Gunn once again found himself unable to contain his innermost feelings of annoyance. Following Eminem’s Instagram post prompting Alchemist’s brand new album The Food Villain, one of Em’s followers called the rapper out for neglecting to post about Gunn’s Shady debut. Gunn himself slid through to issue a response, albeit entirely emoji-based, that paints a vivid picture of his temperament: three crying-laughter emojis followed by three “shhhh” emojis. In other words, yep, but we don’t talk about that.

It’s unfortunate to see that Griselda’s Shady stint hasn’t always been the most harmonious, especially given how dominant the Buffalo label has been this year. Here’s hoping that things can change for the better upon the release of Conway’s Shady Records debut God Don’t Make Mistakes. In the meantime, be sure to go check out Westside Gunn’s Who Made The Sunshine right here.

Tsu Surf Sparks Hope from Behind Bars With A Bold Promise of Return

Honk Magazine

In a message that brought hope throughout the hip-hop community, Tsu Surf shared an inspiring update from prison that felt more like a glimpse into his heart than a typical social media post. Recently, Surf made a statement on his Instagram featuring a billboard that promotes Mozzy’s new album, “Intrusive Thoughts.” While the billboard is dedicated to Mozzy, its message resonates, “This message is brought to you by Mozzy. Free Surf.” Surf also wrote a powerful caption: “FREE ME TIL ITS BACCWARDS. BE HOME IN A SECOND. DON’T BLINK.”

For those who’ve been following Surf’s journey, his triumphs, struggles, and legal issues, these words carry a special weight. After pleading guilty in April 2023 to some serious charges related to conspiracy and firearms, Surf was sentenced to five years in prison. This could have been a much worse situation; he was facing up to 30 years. So, when the judge announced the sentence, it felt like a relief to his devoted fans. Since then, things have been quiet on his front, but this new post breaks that silence not with specifics but with energy and hope. Surf’s statement uses the kind of expressive language his fans understand. When he says, “Be home in a second,” he’s suggesting that early release could be possible, even if he doesn’t provide exact details.

The fact that Mozzy, a respected rapper in his own right, strengthened Surf’s message shows a deep bond that goes beyond music. It’s about support and hope for the future. In a world where public backing can quickly fade, Surf’s impact still shines brightly. This moment doesn’t signal his return just yet, but it hints that the countdown to his release might be starting. While Tsu Surf may be physically locked away, his spirit remains alive and active. And if his words indicate, he could be back sooner than anyone thinks.
