Peysoh On Kendrick Lamar's "GNX"

Peysoh broke into the mainstream by appearing on the title track from Kendrick Lamar's aforementioned GNX album in 2024. On the song, the two trade bar for bar, rapping: "Tell 'em Peysoh did it, ayy, who showed you how to run a blitz? / Tell 'em Peysoh did it, who put the West back in front of sh*t?" The project is up for Album Of The Year at the Grammys.

Peysoh previously reflected on the experience while speaking with the Los Angeles Times. “It’s so dope that he embraced the culture and did right by us,” he said after the album dropped. “There’s a lot of controversy with Mexican rap, but he knows what he wants and he had a blueprint. He’s a legend and I’m so grateful for the chance he gave to me to prove my keep.”

As for his own music, Peysoh put out his latest album, FinallyFed, back in July. The project features collaborations with a number of high-profile artists, including Mozzy, 03 Greedo, Lil Yachty, Kevin Gates, and Bhad Bhabie.
