Fresh off the release of Fourth Rope earlier in April, Westside Gunn has dropped off his newest solo record Flygod is An Awesome God. The multifaceted creative once again exhibits the intricacies of his musicality, masterfully riding along with the unorthodox fusion of beats laid underneath his flow. Much like his acclaimed 2018 album Supreme Blientele, Gunn is assisted by an impressive roster of talent including Westside Pootie and Wu-Tang Clan‘s Raekwon on the opener “Jul 27th,” Benny The Butcher and Conway on “Ferragamo Funeral” and “Pete Sake,” along with Madlib on the self-explanatory “Gunnlib.”

In other new music releases, Post Malone and Young Thug get emotional in the visual for “Goodbyes.”
