Westside Gunn and the Griselda team have had a great year. They made a strong entrance into the rap game and made sure that their presence was felt. After penning a deal with Eminem's Shady Records, alongside his brother Conway, Westside Gunn has made serious waves through the rap game. Today, he caps the week off with his latest single, "Finn Balor Clean."
Westside Gunn comes through with his latest jam, "Finn Balor Clean." He comes through with his vivid lyricism and smooth flow over minimal production. The beat itself has no percussion on it but consists of a velvety piano progression, a simple bassline and angelic vocal samples that float in the background. Westside Gunn reminisces about the old days and his childhood throughout the whole track. While it lasts less than two minutes long, it's a short but sweet effort from the Griselda beast.
Quotable Lyrics
Machine gun is my shepherd
Loaded desert
And for the record
I be the flyest of all time
