Yeah Westside Gunn's voice takes some getting used to. I know it took me a looong time but in the end it 'clicked'. ShaDynasty would probably be better informed than me to put you on to the essential releases from the camp.Quote:

Griselda - WWCD (Group album)
WSG - Pray For Paris
Conway - From A King To A God
There's a ton of mixtapes, EPs and other albums and collab projects too but everything I've heard is high quality, no need to name them all.

Peace!

Thanks for the recommendations, lads. I'll def look into it.
^ Interesting.
Daringer produced 2 tracks on the new Bronson LP:

Yep!

We might hear Busta Rhymes on a killer beat, and actually do some real SPITTING alongside Slick Rick and Westside Gunn. This might be the only wortwhile Busta track we'll hear this year.
Great list of features. Production will be top notch as usual.
Off 'Burden Of Proof', Benny's upcoming album.
WSG LP is out.

Sounds incredible.

Still enjoy hearing him with the other guys tho.
Will def DL another round of records when I get a chance.
^ WSG is an aquired taste, I feel like all 3 are evenly matched as solo rappers but Butcher tends to have the killer closing verses on the group tracks. WSG is definitely a dope lyricist with his imagery and crime stories, a lot of that on the new album.

This might be my favorite track on the album, totally fucked up beat for a posse cut.
I was disappointed in this album kind of, after track 5 it average to me. Busta Rhymes sound like he has mucus all in his system during his verse.
Busta with his weird voice couldn't even fuck this up. I think this is equal to PFP.Quote:

That song is included in the first 5 songs. I didn't count the intro. It's not equal to PFP I believe. Feel like he's trying too hard for some ground breaking sound now. That 8 Minute track could've been left off the album...I do like "Good Night" with Slick Rick though, can't leave that out.Quote:

Yeah, ' Good Night' is ace. I like the album. Peace.Quote:

Plus Conway's Shady debut, produced by Alc, Daringer is dropping very soon too.
What r the best mixtapes n unofficial sort of shit these cunts have put out? Particularly Conway. I love reject 2, but king to god isn't really that great to me. Also much prefer that goat tape, whatever that was. I like Benny's 2 official releases tho. I'll have to check out the new one too.
^ Great record. This year has had some dope releases.
Something I read the other day was Griselda have an album with Just Blaze coming soon. That should be crazy based on 98 Sabres.
I listened to Burden of Proof last night (albeit half lit). The hype is justified imo....the beats are great, he can rhyme his ass off and the album just seemed cohesive/flowed from track to track nicely. I need to listen some more (at least once sober) but initially I think I can say this one might me nearly flawless and that's HARD to find these days
Peace!
WSG's got one last project coming
https://hiphopdx.com/news/id.58753/t...-adolf-project
Well, it finally happened. https://www.revolt.tv/news/2020/11/1...-shady-records
it's dumb that the label nor Eminem promoted the album. Eminem's social media alone could have given the album a big push. this was like a big fuck you to WSG
whenever I type Eminem I make my 'ughhh Pusha T' face
Real classy of Shady Records to retroactively promote Who Made The Sunshine? after Westside Gunn left..
"We’ve had an awesome time working with @WESTSIDEGUNN & @GriseldaRecords on their mission towards world domination!" writes Shady. "We’re proud & honored to have been a part of it. But there’s still more work to do.. #WhoMadeTheSunshine is out now plus @WHOISCONWAY's Shady debut is coming in ‘21!"

dope
this one's nice too imo
