Westside Gunn declared he would never return to Canada unless he received an enormous payday to appear in the country again. The Griselda Records rapper said racists working for the Canada Border Services Agency mistreated and blocked him from entering the country on Saturday (February 17).
“Unless I’m getting a big bag the way I was just treated in front of my kids I’m never going back to Canada, & it’s sad bc I love [Canada] the love I get from there is beautiful,” he wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter). “I have personal friends [there] but them racist MFs at the border BIG P#### & POOTIE called them broke.”
Westside Gunn posted footage of the aftermath on social media. He showed his viewers an “Allowed to Leave Canada” form, which is given to people deemed to be inadmissible by the country.
“Disrespectful m############ won’t let me in Canada, man,” he said in the clip. “For real. Disre-f######-spectful, man. Allowed to leave Canada. These m############ are crazy … Somebody put the call in so I can’t get in the country no more, man. What’s good? That’s how y’all you do me? That’s how y’all do me, Canada?”
AllHipHop contacted Westside Gunn for more information about the incident but did not hear back from him as of yet. The Buffalo native was presumably trying to cross the border near his hometown, which is relatively close to Canada.
Westside Gunn ran into trouble at the Canadian border several months after dropping his And Then You Pray For Me album. He claimed the project would be his last studio album, but fans know his past comments about retirement proved his plans should be taken with a grain of salt. Westside Gunn did say he would likely drop more EPs despite his intentions to not create another studio album.
