Westside Gunn isn’t letting his foot off the gas in 2020. Two months after releasing his Pray For Paris album, the Griselda Records architect has announced a new LP titled Flygod Is An Awesome God II.
The sequel to 2019’s Flygod Is An Awesome God is scheduled to drop next Friday (July 3), giving Griselda fans some new music to enjoy during the Fourth Of July weekend.
“FLYGOD IS AN AWESOME GOD II 7/3,” the Roc Nation-managed MC wrote via Instagram. “I guess y’all thought I was playing… The New leader of the CULTURE- FASHION,ART,MUSIC,WRESTLING,FILM BTW PRAY FOR PARIS is not done I’m still dropping 2more videos, the Movie & the Box CDs I’m just on SHIT!!!! ? #FLYGOD #GXFR #LEGEND #ICON #CULTURE #FIAAG2 #BUFFALOKIDS.”
Westside’s music update comes just a few days after he was promoting Griselda’s first foray into film. His labelmate Benny The Butcher is the star and executive producer of the label’s debut movie Conflicted, which is directed by AK.Reed Films.
