The collective's de facto leader is the label's founder Westside Gunn. To date, Griselda has two releases as a collective: the extended play Don't Get Scared Now in 2016 and debut album WWCD in 2019.^{[citation needed]}

History

Beginning in the label's formative years, physical copies of the label's music were distributed in limited releases by London label Daupe! that often sold out within minutes.^[1] In 2017, Griselda signed a distribution deal with Shady Records for artists Westside Gunn and Conway, which ended when both left the label in 2020 and 2022.^[2] In 2019, Westside Gunn and Benny the Butcher signed a management deal with Jay-Z's entertainment company Roc Nation.^[3]

In 2021, Benny and Gunn produced and starred in the crime film Conflicted (2021).^[4]

In 2024, Gunn announced the creation of 4th Rope, a wrestling promotion.^[5] On July 20, 2025, 4th Rope was featured on TNA's Slammiversary.^{[citation needed]}
