they all have their charms. They need to do more group projects.. Rap in general needs more groups. Not everyone is a solo act... Conway WSG nor Benny got anything to actually talk about outside their usual fodder so it's best for them to break up the monotony of their solo music by doing group projects.
So true. There aren’t many dope groups or duos anymore.

It’s a lost art.

You said it best. Not everyone is a solo act. IMO WSG, Conway, and Benny all work better as duos or even a trio than they do as solo artists.

They’re trying to do some exclusive shyt but they’re not handing business on their end. If fans paid for their shyt you send it to them. Even if it’s in back order you let them know. Otherwise don’t be taking nikkas money then get mad when ask for what they paid for. nikkas is corny for that. I wouldn’t buy shyt from them. That shyt ain’t on iTunes fukk em. I won’t be listening.

I don't think Conway or any of the other Griselda people have been ripping anyone off. They just have trouble with the logistics of mailorder. Everyone eventually gets their stuff, it just takes a while. And they don't communicate at all about the time frame. They just need to get one of their buddies in Buffalo that work in a warehouse (and so understand logistics of shipping/receiving) to come up with a plan and then pay him to pack and send orders like twice a month.

I just received that ANKH NASTY cassette yesterday. I bought it in June or July. But the label said it was a preorder and would ship at end of September so I knew it was going to be a while. I never thought they were gonna rip me off.

I always want independent artists to eat, but I honestly hate these limited/physical only releases. Just put that shyt out and real fans will support.

Can even have it available only on his site and I would pay the $9.99 for the digital release, not even stream. In 2018 I don't own any devices that play cds

At least this ain’t like Mach hommy charging $8000 for electronic files
Im pretty sure these guys cant do anything different. They dont clear samples. It will never be available everywhere cuz all it take is one caught sample to fukk they shyt. Im sure they clear some shyt but they gotta pick and choose. Hommy and fahim aint clearing shyt for sure thats why they albums hundreds of dollars.

They have managed to overcome the system with this lil run and i get it. I did the math on the gunn album wit the 3 covers.

On vinyl and tape alone. In one day. They made half a MILLION dollars

That is fukking ridiculous. Sad part is i knew vinyl was the wave 10 years ago and didnt jump in cuz im an idiot and my team is lazy. Still time of course as people JUST gettin it. Thats why crimeapple dropping 1000 copies of his album at a time and is on the 2nd reissue of his album now.

Takss money to make MONEY in vinyl. These are the handcuffs put on artists who make HIP HOP.

I know i should be mad at the customer service, the delivery methods of their music, the redundant lyrics, the limited subject matter in the songs, etc. but...:manny:

I really enjoy their music...and if it's a little more hassle to get it, so be it. I just love their sound and am grateful that somebody is making music like this.

If they release it...i will eventually hear it. :yeshrug:
