I’ve always thought too much Daringer can get tiresome and boring. And I’ve thought they sounded better once Alchemist started helping more; Lulu is all Conway and Alc, and is more vibrant and diverse sounding than his projects that Daringer produced. There was more experimental samples. There was more swing on the drums instead of the heavy snares on the 2s and 4s. It was refreshing.

On Dough Damani it’s like you’re flying high with Alc and then Daringer pulls you down to the pavement. I think this album had the perfect blend. I think it would be weird to never hear Daringer involved, but I like that he was kept to 3 beats on here. King to a God is the perfect blend of dusty boom bap, modern boom bap, and modern polish.

Benny’s expanding his range too. His project this month is all Hit-Boy beats, and Plugs I Met 2 is all Harry Fraud.

idgaf what no one says, I am NOT a fan of Daringer at all. I am not a huge fan of Alc from the past decade....I love 90's and 2000's Alc, probably pre-2013. still he does good work with Gibbs, Griselda, etc....a lot better than Daringer. only ran across a handful of Daringer beats I ever like outside of ones he did with Beat Butcher who I prefer over him as well.

Tracklist in the OP accurate?

 

[surv2syn]

Flee Lord’s voice stands out too much to be considered monotonous

no variety on a lot of his projects. same rhymes and flows over different production. he pales in comparison with some of the MC's he gets on tracks with because of this too. eto, RJ Payne, Grafh, elcamino, etc...just being honest because if you see my posts here....you will see I am actually one of his bigger supporters because his grind is crazy and you dont have to be a great lyricist/vocalist to make good music. Flee makes good music. when he takes his time and focuses...he rocks out.

 

[Animal House]

This is it


Con dropped consecutive work like the Bulls


Idc what anyone says Dough & Damani is my shyt ESPECIALLY that beat switch to the grimmest beat

i really wanna know why West is the only 1 that doesn't put Camino on his projects. he makes dope ass hooks, kills verses on Benny/Con projects.
its not that he needs to be on a WSG joint, imo he's held it down more than enough on his own joints

this shyt fire

 

[DrHackenbush]

On some producer nerd shyt, I'm interested to know if Spurs 3 is sample-free or not. Beat Butcha went sample free for Everything But Jesus and maybe Front Lines too. Dude is walking away from this album as a winner. More beats than any other producer, and easily produced 3 of the best songs on here. This might be an unpopular opinion, but I like Beat Butcha and Daringer better apart than when they produce together.

I think Butcha has been sample free for the last few years. Guys a beast with the beats, he put in a lot of work over here in the UK before doing his thing over there

Filthy

Absolutely filthy

I'm sure its been mentioned but where's the Drake feauture?

 

[LeflaurLeflahEshkoshka]

Conway delivered on this one. Easily best project I’ve heard from him besides devils reject 2

Always wondered that too. Feel like he’s due at least for a hook on a WSG project.

Side note...would also like to hear Conway and 38 Spesh cook up something

I feel like cause West does all the hooks but atleast let him get a verse atleast.

finally listening. the mixing couldve made track 2 so much better if it was cleaned up
