Westside Gunn and his Griselda movement have established themselves as a forward-thinking presence in hip-hop. Prioritizing the creation of art first and foremost, a quality likely picked up through his appreciation for collectible artwork and its exclusivity, Gunn has successfully elevated Griselda from a record label to a full-blown multi-media machine. Now, the Buffalo rapper has taken to Instagram to unveil the spoils of his team's latest achievement, the release of Griselda's first motion picture "Conflicted."

Executive produced in part by Benny The Butcher, who also stars in the flick, Conflicted is directed by A.K Reed and written by Duece King. "When Master P Did “Bout Bout” showing u the N.O. And HOV made “Streets is Watching” showing u BK, and Camron made “KILLA Season” showing u Harlem, GRISELDA & CONFLICTED shows u Buffalo," writes Gunn, proudly sharing the first full-length trailer. "We're taking it back to when ppl stole your DVDs."
"I’ve literally watched this movie Everyday since it’s completion," he continues. "The story, the acting, the shots everything is A1, I promise u you will watch this 50x like any other classic in the streets I’m so Happy and Proud of everybody who participated in the making of this Film." Look for Conflicted to drop soon, which also stars Gunn, Michael Rapaport, Adiyon Dashalon, Deuce King, and J Holiday. Do you think Griselda have a street classic on the way?
