Westside Gunn, Benny & Conway - WWCD (Discussion Thread)

[BlackDroog]

I loved Hitler 7 which just came out but I've out grown them

I said before the album came out that I wasn't high on a Daringer produced album and what's my complaint about this album; Daringer. I have no critique about Benny, Conway, or Gun just the production. The beats don't shift in tone enough for me and I don't like albums like that because they end up sounding like one drawn out song.

No one asked for them to change the formula or sound. Their sound is bigger than Daringer.

I guess that's where we differ. It isn't a problem for me. I enjoy the album. Griselda has dropped at least 6 albums this year. all with different but still consistent sounds. It seems like a lot of folks had bigger expectations because this was a "major" release, but for me i like the fact they stuck to the script. I definitely feel where you are coming from but it's just not a problem for me. plus they told us this is what the album would be before it dropped. We knew it was all Daringer beats and we knew what Daringer was before hearing this All of his pros and cons.

It's two different entities. Both really dope. Two different lanes.

I'm just really waiting on that new Sean P with Fizzy.

IMO so different stylistically and sonically as to almost not be comparable.

Finally listened to the album. The comments in this thread overhyped the album and my expectations weren't met.

Like someone said previously HWH7 > this

Also Conway is repeatedly emphasizing that they need to “look in the scope so they don’t miss” as if it’s been an issue before.

WSG did say once he coach his shooters 3 times a week like Popovich

 

[Pazzy]

Heard half of the album and I gotta say that this shyt is pretty dayum great. It will most definitely be in future discussions for great or possibly classic albums. This the type of shyt that restores the feelings.

On 'Pete's Sake' Conway is in full positive reinforcement mode though

"The Flygod is an awesome God/
My little nikka hit three nikkas, I told him, "Awesome job""

Got that 'Shooter Of The Month' plaque and a h̶o̶n̶e̶y̶ ̶g̶l̶a̶z̶e̶d̶ ̶h̶a̶m̶ brick of coke for improved acccuracy

My shooter doin' bad again (My shooter doin' bad again)
My shooter doin' bad again (My shooter doin' bad again)

Got me singin this shyt randomly through out the day and i dont even got any shooters

 

[GambinoMakeItWork]

Conway’s super repetitive with the lyrics but his flow/delivery keeps it interesting every time. I put him above Benny in that regard at least

 

[Urbanmiracle]

Album was dark and it was over the top with goonery. Hmmm I dig it. HWH 7 is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better but this wasn’t bad. I like the way they go back and forth on some Lox type shyt. But this is solid

 

[kdslittlebro]

This shyt mixed differently or something I listened to it on the pods and it sounded way better than it did in the car, but I’ve listened to everything else if there’s in the whip and it sounded great.

Like it a lot more on second listen. Great album, but still not the undisputed masterpiece I was hoping for.

A small step behind some of their other projects this yr.

All my opinion obviously
