SCORPIO SEASON. HEEL ENERGY. MACHO MAN FOREVER. 🦂♏️
Westside Gunn is bringing wrestling theatrics, underground hip-hop and collector culture together again with HEELMATIC. The Buffalo artist's new album is scheduled for Friday, November 13, 2026, through Griselda Records and Mass Appeal. Its timing falls right in Scorpio season—just two days before the birthday of wrestling legend “Macho Man” Randy Savage.

FIRST BLOOD: THE VINYL DROP
The promotional artwork spotlights the HEELMATIC — First Blood 2XLP variant, presented with a striking red-and-black vinyl design. The announcement directs collectors to shop.massappeal.com and advertises pre-orders for 12 PM ET on the day following the original post. Because the image does not specify a calendar date, buyers should check the retailer for current availability rather than rely on the word “tomorrow.”
A SCORPIO-SEASON SALUTE TO MACHO MAN
Randy Savage was born on November 15, 1952. From his unmistakable voice and extravagant ring attire to his commanding persona, the late wrestling icon turned performance into a visual language of its own. Gunn's frequent references to professional wrestling make the Scorpio-season pairing especially fitting. His Macho Man nod is part of the larger tradition of wrestling storytelling running through the Griselda universe.
RIP “Macho Man” Randy Savage (1952–2011). KOLAK celebrates his November 15 birthday this Scorpio season. 🦂♏️
FROM THE RING TO THE RECORD
HEELMATIC follows Westside Gunn's longstanding fusion of art direction, fashion, hip-hop, and wrestling culture. The album was announced alongside the single “Zilla,” and the project is slated for November 13. The vinyl artwork leans into the atmosphere: bold typography, blood-red wax, and an unmistakable heel aesthetic.
