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

[TheDarceKnight]

This got a few joints. But They've all released better projects than this. I think my biggest gripe is the overall sound of the album. shyt really feels like a raw mixtape, with just basic bare bone production & raw verses. I've heard much better from Daringer also.

Cruiser Weight Coke is my shyt. Conway & Benny was servin. Track would've been better served if WSG was left off or at least went 1st.

Album missing hooks, melodies, and song concepts. Feels like a label album going the cheap route though I guess.

I'm a broken record in here, but I swear it's because they couldn't use samples on here.

Like, they did their best, but they will always sound better when they can sample, because that's the entire essence of their main signature sounds.

They did a good job faking an album with samples. But it's like the uncanny valley effect. The ears can always tell when it's not the real thing.

Oh well. We will get Hall & Nash 2 produced by Alchemist in 2020, and Benny will be on some joints on that too. So that's probably the closest we'll ever get to a new Griselda group album with samples on it.

Ghost and deck need to do s remix on chef dreds.

I was actually hoping for a wu feature on this. At least a Ghost and Rae feature.

I agree with Rod about Conway.

at Myke saying Westside and Benny rapped better than Conway

I reflect the darkest cloud in the sky
I'm cold as Winter day
When I'm out with the K
Chill..
Play cool til come you get frost bit let the Dz find the strap in the snow after I toss it
You fukk around I set your ass on fire
Hollow Tips burn faster than rubber on spinnin' tires
I've been rhymin' this shyt all day in my two toned du rag

And Mike from DEHP said that Fif didn't bring it lyrically

He let that opening ' I do I do' part clout his mind.

Why can they use samples on their independent releases but not Shady? Their independent albums are still on all streaming platforms.

Can’t they pay out of their own pocket

this album got too monotone without samples imo

With what money?

Paying for samples can be rather taxing depending on who or what is being sampled. If they aren't getting cleared (some most likely aren't), just hope it gets flipped well enough to be undiscovered for 20 years on some RZA/Havoc shyt or hope you don't blow up enough to get caught.

I like Benny solo shyt better

But aren’t they paying for samples on their other releases like Tana talk 4
