Westside Gunn revealed on social media a month ago that his upcoming project, PEACE “FLY” GOD, would debut during Paris Fashion Week. Sadly, he later acknowledged that his trip to France had consumed his time and caused a delay.

The mixtape’s release date was confirmed by the Buffalo, New York native on Sunday night via an Instagram post. In order to “keep that sh** grimey,” Westside Gunn claims he won’t bother spending a lot of time editing the music for his upcoming release on Friday, July 8, 2022.ย
“Iโm back in the states and the homies pulled right up on me, now the tape is complete!!!!! Idgaf about the mix or the master I wanna keep that sh** grimey af, so Iโm dropping this Fri f*** it, “the post caption. “This, not the Album this a ART piece before MICHELLE RECORDS @esteenack @cvv.vino and ainโt s*** f***** wit itโฆ made in 48hrs,” he continued.
Westside having originally unveiled โPeace โFlyโ Godโ in June, Gunn has already been actively hyping the mixtape on Instagram, giving the impression that it will include more than just his personal verses and music.
Ever since, Westside Gunn has posted a number of audio teases, such as a collaboration with legendary Griselda soundman Camoflauge Monk, Griselda associate Stove God Cook$, and famed producer Madlib.
