This is a quick return for Westside.

Westside Gunn is proving that retirement talk is just noise. Even after announcing he would step away from studio albums in 2023, the Buffalo native has kept delivering, most recently with projects like 12 earlier this year, which featured standout collaborations with Stove God Cooks. Now, he’s preparing fans for Heels Have Eyes 2, an album that promises the signature Gunn soundscapes that fans have come to love.

Dropping on August 28th, Heels Have Eyes 2 lands during a monumental week for hip-hop, as albums from Earl Sweatshirt and Joey Bada$$ are also slated to release. Westside Gunn’s timing demonstrates not only confidence in his work but also his status as a pillar of the modern rap scene. With his ear for production and his ability to curate a cohesive, cinematic experience, Gunn’s projects stand out even in a crowded release week.

Gunn has long been celebrated for his genius in crafting complete soundscapes, blending gritty street narratives with luxurious production and avant-garde beats. Fans can expect Heels Have Eyes 2 to continue this tradition.

As anticipation builds for August 28th, Heels Have Eyes 2 is shaping up to be one of Westside Gunn’s most compelling projects yet. The countdown is officially on.
