Westside Gunn is finally ready to release his Shady Records debut Who Made The Sunshine. With the highly anticipated LP scheduled to arrive on Friday (October 2), the Griselda Records founder unveiled its tracklist and contributors on Tuesday (September 29).
The Buffalo native’s new album will feature collaborations with Black Thought, Slick Rick, Jadakiss, Stove God Cook$ and Smoke DZA, among others. The LP also includes guest appearances by his Griselda labelmates Conway The Machine, Benny The Butcher, Armani Caesar, Boldy James and Keisha Plum.
Just Blaze, Alchemist, Daringer, Beat Butcha and Conductor Williams handle the production on the 11-track effort, which is Westside’s first solo album for Eminem’s Shady Records.
Who Made The Sunshine was originally supposed to drop on August 28, but the LP got postponed due to the death of Griselda affiliate DJ Shay.
Westside’s upcoming album will be his third project of 2020. He previously released Pray For Paris in April and Flygod Is An Awesome God 2 in July.

HEY YO, DOOT DOOT DOOT DOOT BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BRRRRRRRRRR BRRRRRRRRRR BOOM BOOM BOOM!!
Hasn’t this dude dropped like 8 albums in the last two years? This is is Shady debut? I thought that was like a year ago
That was the Griselda group album. Everything he did after that was essentially indie releases. Ergo, this being his Shady debut
Westside Gunn is about to drop some heat!
WSG about to get outshined by everyone on here. Damn near every song got a feature.
Can’t wait for the new joint to drop its gonna be crazy Ill this cat and the rest of the Griselda fam Boldy Janes Benny the butcher elcimino and the First Lady Armani ceaser they are leading the pack right now and have brought real
New York rap and have redirecting the east coast to a tee they are true trend setters they don’t play the follow the leader and they don’t sound like the rest of the these garbage mediocre wack fruity pebbles right clothes stripper rappers like migos lizzo who can’t rap a fucking gift
Hate to burst your bubble but Roc Marciano was keeping that torch lit long before these cats came on the scene.
Black Thought and WSG on the same album = Alvin from Niagara Falls will get murked. AYO. AYO. AYO. BOOBOOBOOM. DOODOODOOT. BRRRRRR
So far (my opinion, no cap), Westside Gunn is the hottest Griselda member in 2020. Yep, I said it, and I mean it
It took me a minute to get used to Westside’s style, but I like the energy and charisma he brings to the tracks he’s on. Benny’s my personal favorite out of the camp, but it’s nice to hear West’s over the top adlibs here and there. And this album’s got a great lineup, might check it out.
Westside is best on the hook not a real good rapper but benny is my favorite as well but I gave Conway a listen on his debut he nice
Yes, Conway’s album is dope, one of my favorites to drop this year.
WSG is the worst of the three, but he’s still dope, and his project Flygod from 2016 is, to date, by far the best full project from the crew (with GOAT by Conway coming in second).
Man, if you think WSG is dope, I’ve got a beautiful ocean front property I wanna sell you in Idaho. AYO. AYO. AYO. BOOBOOBOOM. DOOTDOOTDOOT. BRRRRR
Mann I miss the 90s n early 2g’s when it was quality albums over quantity. Niggaz be droppin 10 albums a year minimum and no gold or platinum plaque yet. Not even radio airplay.
The more features he stuffs on, the less I have to hear that Micky mouse voice
U must like it if u keep checking. Tell your mom I’m not coming over tonight.
WSG king. Griselda are like the deathly hallows to me, WSG being the elder’s wand, Conway the Machine the resurrection stone and Benny the Butcher the invisibility cloak. They can’t be defeated, they death masters.
Did your nerd ass seriously go Hogwarts while praising these guys? SMH. Please don’t ever comment on Hip-hop again. Nerd. Why don’t you compare them to your favorite Pokémon, or maybe some Dragonball shit? Dumbass incel!
I am a nerd but I made you dance did I not? That’s a little bit of magic for you sir. WSG king
Not surprised that you are hating someone for the way they differ then you but I’m betting you were standing up with a fist in the air typing with the other while screaming equality … wouldn’t expect anything else
Vote Paul Stack for president! He’s got a plan to decriminalize weed in all 50 states! Plus, he’ll make it legal to smack bitches around again! Vote for Stack!
He should just stop for a minute and spend his money in a Gucci store or idk, but this flood of low quality albums is irritating. With the exception of some early recordings Griselda’s whole discography is throwaway. They try to mimic 90s mafioso rap, but Rae, Ghost and Kool G haven’t dropped millions of shitty albums to stand out from the crowd.
Sound like u describing your mom’s box
I’ll take quality over quantity anyday. He’s yet to top his 2016 release and I’m tired of seeing a new album from the griselda camp every week. It’s the same subject matter, producers and features on every album, doing the same thing over and over again is the definition of Insanity. Westside gunn is the weakest in the camp, the only reason people tolerate him is because of the production that carries him throughout the album.
Stop listening then idiot
They can release albums every week if the records dope. And the records are dope. I bet we would all wish Wu-Tang had released this much work between 36 Chambers and Forever. Let’s enjoy this streak while it lasts. Lastly there is no best or worse member in Griselda. They all kings. WSG king, Conway the Machine king, Benny the Butcher king. Brr
People do not tolerate WSG, they actually like his music. That’s their vibe, why should they change it?”Doing the same thing over and over again and expect different results is the definition of insanity”, that is what you were trying to say but I see that you don’t understand that if the people like it and come to see them perform, they are smart and talented, not insane or whatever. U just a hater, go fukk a bitch and feel better, man. Your opinion sounds like coming from a little petty c*nt who needs to get laid, no offence.
Keisha Plum???
Keisha Plum harder than a motherfucca
In the copper brown civic!!! Skkrrrrrrttttttt!!!! Dodododdodododoododo!!!!
He spelled Sabres wrong
This gon be nuts!
Liz loved Luger and he beat her and basically killed her, I mean I guess she should have stayed with a Savage
The fact that gun has a song called “Frank Murphy” on this album shows how East Side of Buffalo he really is. If you know you know. That dude was dropping bodies in 2001.
I’ll try one LAST time to stomach this dude and his gunshot adlibs. Maybe he actually switched it up this time? The beats are alwayshard, Benny and Conway are nice but WSG is clearly the weakest link in the group
