Westside Gunn is no stranger to having the utmost confidence in himself and his rap career. On Tuesday (April 27), the Griselda Records leader jumped on Twitter to make a bold claim ahead of his forthcoming project, Hitler Wears Hermes 8: Sincerely Adolf.
“I have the illest discography of All Time,” he tweeted. “I have HWH1-7, Supreme Blientele, Pray for Paris, FLYGOD, Awesome GOD 1&2, I could’ve actually stopped at HWH7, Blientele, Pray for Paris and FLYGOD. it’s many more and more otw.”
He continued, “Don’t compare me to NOBODY who only did it 1,2,3X I’m talking 20x straight for 8yrs straight.”
Whether fans like his music or think he’s delusional for his claims, people have to admire the amount of music Westside and the rest of the Griselda camp put out in a short amount of time. In his 16-year long career, Westside Gunn has dropped over 28 projects.
A fan on Twitter added Westside’s infamous Shady Records debut, Who Made The Sunshine, to the list, which caused the Buffalo native to issue out another tweet praising the album despite all the drama behind it.
“Also WHO MADE THE SUNSHINE was absolutely FireFire,” he wrote in the tweet. “Made from scratch, no samples, all the features was incredible, 2 Slick Rick verses, a 8min song that was phenomenal and made in a week. S/O to @rosenberg I’ll always respect him for being a man of his word.”
Fans can expect more music to come from Westside Gunn with his upcoming Hitler Wears Hermes 8: Sincerely Adolf project. On March 31, Westside Gunn got the hype train moving when he dropped two new tracks off the new project titled “Julia Lang” and “TV BOY.”
Westside Gunn announced Hitler Wears Hermes 8: Sincerely Adolf back in October in an Instagram post. The upcoming project will be Westside’s proper follow-up to Who Made The Sunshine, which was released on October 2.
Paul rosenberg runs shady records and tells Em to do cameos on all the projects. Em probably doesn’t even know who is still on the label.
His shady record was ass. Dude always dresses like an eight year old.
Okay. You said that. I think the record was dope. Also he dresses dope. Hip hop, like Nas did in army at Dmx’s funeral. Hip hop. Baggy clothes. Save the grown and sexy clothing for dining at $1000 meal restaurants.
This motherfucker is wearing a $500 poncho with a white Sox baseball hat on. LOL. Let that soak in for a sec. Pray for Paris was his best project IMO. Almost a classic. They put out WAY too much music. If they would simply put out one album a year with the best tracks off of the 12+ projects they put out as a whole, they would be truly dope. Calm down white guys. No one said anything about grown and sexy. Dude has camo shorts on and ponchos etc. dude is 38 years old.
You’re straight ass that record was nice some of the other projects he mentioned weren’t as good as his other ones but the shady one was dope. Busta rhymes slick rick I like the boldly James and jadakiss one too. If you don’t like this music don’t listen u fuckin dweeb
That “Julia Lang” track is ridiculously dope.
Westsidegunn has an incredible discography. It really restored New York Hip Hop. I hope he keeps going like Nas and Krs One!
WSG is corny AF tho. He’s cool for like a couple listens but I can’t see anyone actually taking him seriously especially when all he does is gun adlibs.
His adlibs are over the top, and rapping is subpar, but he has the best beats of the three griselda members. Flygod is the best project I’ve heard from any of them (granted they release so many I haven’t heard them all)
Only thing untouchable about Gunn is his awful, intolerable baby voice. By far the most annoying rapper out today, and I’m even including all the trap garbage.
Untouchable? Good that he can make himself belief that, but that just isn’t how it is – at least not for me. Can’t stand this dude. Benny and Conway I really like, but Westside… No. He’s like Tony Yayo, cool when he’s doing the group thing and all, but his solo work is intolerable.
There’s a thin line bw confidence and delusion, and this kid has passed the confidence side. The illest discography to ever exist belongs to either Wu Tang Clan or Ghostface Killah
His discography is literally the illest. Handicapped.
the game has the best discography in rap….fight me
This guy’s music sucks. If it wasn’t for his star studded producers, no one would give him the time of day. Word.
Gotta thank west for introducing me to Daringer lol.
He’s lame, the same reason why you don’t hear homies bumping ll cool j and public enemy anymore is the same reason no one plays griselda music. The style is old and outdated and he doesn’t know how to adapt. I give benny his props but that’s where it stops. One.
Griselda catalog is unmatched, compared to the amount of time they been on. Westside right, his discography is tough.
Whassup with rappers idolizing and naming themselves after historic figures that hated black people? That’s wack. This dude been wack though honestly. Way gassed up.
Shutup, the flygod is an awesome God
Wow, if you’re a grown man and that openly on another man’s jock, you need to do some soul searching bro.
They either simply don’t care, or they’re not educated on the individuals they’re naming themselves or their albums after.
There is stuff griselda does better than anyone else, and westside Gunn deserves mad credit. But some of his music is straight up un-listenable if your looking for something sonically pleasing.
I always crack up when people fall for the okie doke, does WSG believe this maybe so but I big part of it is he will get people who don’t agree to actually click and listen to the album which is the entire point so well done WSG keep marketing and making money …. salute.
Why would people who disagree with him listen to his album? They’re just wasting their time.
Yeah I can definitely tell, MOST of ya haven’t listened to his entire discography….
While I wil say if definitely not the greatest of all time…. it is very very solid, amazing production that happens to sound like real hip hop, dope guest appearances, good hook, great stories,reminds you a lot of Raekwon and Ghost old shit… I would say it’s the greatest but it is killing 95% of these newer rappers today
Anyone that sits down and listens to this man’s entire discography definitely deserves a badge of honor, because I can not get through one song of his.
I agree, it is untouchable. Who wants to touch garbage?
Bro you trash with that weird ass voice. I thought you were a girl rapper for years until I seen you a music video
He actually named one of his albums Supreme Blientele? Wow, what an unoriginal d-rider.
