NEW ALBUM: Westside Gunn “HEELMATIC”

Published on

Westside Gunn’s “HEELMATIC”. 16-track project that continues the wrestling-heavy theme from his 2025 Heels Have Eyes trilogy (12, Heels Have Eyes 2, and Heels Have Eyes 3). Gunn had planned Flygod Is An Awesome God 3 as a potential final solo album but pivoted after being inspired by Mass Appeal’s Legend series. He described the music as “grimey, dusty, raw, mixed w/ jazz but it sounds like gospel.” Sessions took place in locations including near the Eiffel Tower, the Acropolis in Athens, Saucony offices, Berlin, and Chicago. Confirmed guests and involvement include Nas, Rome Streetz, Stove God Cooks, Benny the Butcher and Conway the Machine (notably the Griselda reunion “Don Pistola,”), Brother Tom Sos, Trap-A-Holics, and Statik Selektah. There’s also a tied-in 4th Rope wrestling event (Heels Have Eyes: HEELMATIC) and the upcoming Heel the World Tour 2: Still Healing across Europe and the UK in early 2027.
