Always one why do people want nikkas to switch up from what they do well then if it was the other way and it was some pop song ya'll would still complain jesus
Nah that's not me. It's the exact same stagnant, energy-less drums over a stale sounding loop library sound, possibly from Beat Butcha. With the same exact super gangsta nikka bars and a half assed hook. At what point does this become boring as fukk? Same dudes crying about thot music rappers making the same song over and over are praising this.
At least Benny brings in some different features and has livelier beats. Conway is 0/2 for me so far with these "singles."
You a funny dude lol

Same with the Currensy and Alc joint. That shyt sounds exactly like something off of their existing projects. Hell, Spitta basically drops the same mixtape every month. It's dope. That's his lane. I don't see anyone fronting on him for it though. It's fire. Gritty street rap is Griselda's lane.I can see what you saying, but for me:
I don't get it. A million cats have maintained fanbases for years because they made the same shyt, and gotten crucified by their fans when they switched it up. And a million other artists make the same project every time and don't get given grief for it.
Griselda, The LOX, Boldy James, Freddie Gibbs, Currensy, Larry June...I could go on and on. So many of these cats make the same project over and over and don't get criticized that heavily for it. Evidence is literally my favorite artist of the 2010's and everything he dropped was Weather themed over Alc, Primo, and Nottz beats. There's something to be said for sticking to your lane.
I thought people would be happy Conway dropped a gritty album on a major label without having to compromise his style.

Beat Butcha is involved with just one song on this album (whichever one has Keisha Plum on it). Most of the production is Daringer and Alchemist unassisted, then Bink, J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, and Hit-Boy. Conway paid out of his own pocket to clear various samples on here. They didn't need to use Beat Butcha and Daringer on every song like the Griselda group album on Shady.
Unless you wanna hear Conway rapping about his child dying or his mental health issues and storytelling concept joints, then these are about the best you're gonna get on singles. There's a joint with Wayne and Ross that might be a single (and should've been), but besides that, this album is incredibly introspective and heavy/dark content wise. Nothing is single friendly on it whatsoever. There's a lush Bink joint on there that kinda sounds like Song Cry, but even that one has very melancholy lyrics.
There's music on here that makes The Cow sound like Summertime. It's by far Conway's darkest lyrical effort.

Seen it a million times before. Slaughterhouse got absolutely roasted for their Shady album going on some mainstream shyt.
You gotta dance with the girl that brought you.
Funny enough for the people that want to hear Conway over modern production, trap beats, and with more name brand guests...they should listen to La Maquina. He dropped it last year and it's his most modern sounding album so far. He even got Bangledash, Don Cannon, and Murda Beatz to produce on it. The single with Luda and JID sounds A LOT new school Eminem beats. This could easily be a beat on Em's last album.

this track is fire
reminder that some humans here did not want them to sign to shady because the shyt could switch their sound up
so they kept their sound and some people now say they hate hearing the same sound
if I could suplex those people through a pile of chopped wood right now
WHICH IS IT?
Can't wait until Conway releases the album, I still deduct points if he says "my lil homie/shooter" in his rhymes tho cuz then I know it's a filler verse

nikkas been doing this shyt for like 3 years now.
Is Conway the goat with sports related bars? Griselda as a crew got the sports references on lock. That Kyle Korver line.
