He noted, “I’m taking her to Alchemist right now we’re not waiting lol…. Also imagine somebody with Bars, can turn up on these hoes and look as beautiful as this it’s a new day #GXFR #BUFFALOKIDS #vetements #ArmaniCeasar #FOLLOW #2020FIRM #JUSTDONGANG.”
Caesar expressed her excitement in an Instagram post of her own.
“It’s Official,” she wrote. “@westsidegunn bro I can’t wait to show the ppl what we got in store! I’m even happier cuz I really get to do this with the Home team! It’s up and it’s mfkin STUCK? #BuffaloKids #GriseldaShit.”
Caesar not only brings some gender diversity to Griselda but also provides a different style of music.
Fans of Westside, Conway The Machine, Benny The Butcher and Daringer’s work may be surprised to hear her past releases, which are a far cry from the gritty street rap and boom bap that have come to define Griselda.
