Westside Gunn, born Alvin Lamar Worthy in Buffalo, New York, is a key figure in the resurgence of East Coast hip-hop. As co-founder of Griselda Records in 2012, alongside Conway the Machine and Benny the Butcher, Gunn helped redefine gritty, sample-heavy street storytelling with a fashion-forward sensibility. His work blends lo-fi production with vivid narratives, creating a signature sound that’s both rugged and refined.
