Buddy buggin, low key Mach has kinda eclipsed his former crew. That nikka had all of Buffalo tight last week when "Kill Em All" dropped :mjlol:
:yeshrug:
To me I don't even think about the beef shyt. I listen to West, Con, Benny, Mach, Spesh, Rick, Fahim, Camino, and that whole genre.

Mach's music is so different than what Griselda drops that I just have such a hard time comparing it. Maybe his earlier shyt, but his more recent music is so abstract and just far out from what I think of as typical goon music that at this point it just seems kind of weird to me to even think about them as the same thing.

I know that kind of flies in the face of what I said earlier. But my point is that I never followed the beef or even knew about it until way later. Don't Get Scared Now was my first GxFR listen, and I've listened to WSG, Conway, Mach, and Benny ever since, and I fukk with all 4 of them. They all make music that I like but I guess that doesn't help when I don't pick a team (especially when it comes to Benny and Mach which is extra funny to me since they're such polar opposites).

I honestly dont think that shyt even coming out unless it gets bootlegged:francis:

The album that actually might come out might be so watered down that it will be a disappointing release.
This is what I think...I think whether he admits it or not, he's saying it's a double album with "the 2nd half being release on Shady" for the exact reasons you said.

I think LWIB is going to be the doper project, with the more authentic sound, and I think that GDMM (the Shady one) is going to be the one that's more watered down.

I could be wrong though. :manny:

And hey, if neither does what he hopes, I'm sure he'll say (what he did after GOAT) and say the next one after these is the real debut :troll:

Breh you got alot to catch up on :whew: ... Start with...

Conway - Reject 2
WSG - Flygod
GxFR - Dont Get Scared Now EP
Benny - Tana Talk 3
You definitely got the definitive list there breh.

I did put someone onto Benny this week through Plugs I Met (and 2 more in July). I know that's sort of blasphemy among the goon squad, but here me out.

Tana Talk 3 is his definitive work, but something about Plugs I Met I think is an easier sell. It's very short, and the Black Thought, Push, and Jadakiss features help lure in more mainstream rap fans. Not to mention I think Benny's flow is a little more leveled up on Plugs. So they get the taste of the product on there, and then they can more fully appreciate Tana Talk 3 once they know what they're getting.

It's like a DMT trip. You may enjoy it if you've never done acid or mushrooms before, but you'll appreciate it more if you know what you're getting into.

I’m guessing these songs didn’t make the cutting room floor, why even put another project out if the debut is supposed to come out? Either way we eating.
Either that or it'll be a Slaughterhouse situation. Remember when they dropped that mixtape right before their Shady album that ended up having all the doper material that either didn't make the album due to sample clearances, or the label wanted more mainstream sounding joints on it?

Just a thought...

If that happens they might need to use their Roc Nation connects, he’s also gonna need another single soon since that Em joint is almost 2 months old.

While Tana Talk 3 is definitely his best album, I think My First Brick might be the best display of Benny's lyrical ability. He's killing every verse on there. Obviously the beats and song composition aren't as good as TT3 without Alchemist and Daringer.
