I respect Griselda’s hustle like hell but they are really starting to wear thin on me. WSG last few projects were not good and the last thing I still bump by him is Flygod Is An Awesome God. Benny is cool, like him alot but he just don’t hit me like 38 does. Conway is very unorthodox so I can listen to him more than the other 2.

Don’t get me wrong they dope as hell, but their subject matter and limited rap topics are wearing thin and just becoming a little boring now

its hard to drop 3x a year and not get worn out. i let them drop and make a best of GxFR at the end of the year now, cuz theres just so much music from them

So that is what Just is saying. I’ll tag @BK The Great in this too.

There were 2 projects Conway and WSG recorded late 2016 and early 2017. One is the Hall & Nash 2 album fully produced by Alchemist. The other is called Griselda and the Blazettes, and that one is fully produced by Just Blaze.

There’s a song from it that dropped called Machine Gun Black and another one was previews on Rapture. Conway has played those 2 as well as 2-3 others on his Instagram Livestreams.

Just Blaze said that he made the ‘98 Sabers beat on 24 hour’s notice for WSG on the co fiction that WSG let him drop the Griselda and the Blazettes project.

I don’t believe anything with Just drops until it drops though.
EDIT: most of the OG Hall x Nash 2 has dropped on other projects, so they re-recorded a lot of stuff with Alchemist for that, and Benny has been added to Griselda and the Blazettes.

Hitler Wears Hermes

Already been 7 projects and people still complaining about the name. Don't even think he's mentioned Hitler in verse. It's just a play on words. Move on.

If you don't listen to Griselda why are you even here?
Because he is naming his albums off of a man who thought black people were a lesser race?

If a rapper in 2020 named an album after Trump, and does not denounce Trump in his project, then I would think that he is giving free pub to Trump and normalizing him in our community. How is this any different? Why is deserving of a pass for not actually mentioning Hitler in his verses as if that makes his album cover/title more meaningful?

Is it different because we aint Jewish so we only tangentially feel the effect of Hitler's hatred?

Hopefully we get a full project like the WSG song from his debut soon, who really knows what’s gonna happen.

No doubt. I hope so too. 98 Sabers was dope. Just Blaze just has a bad track record of releasing music as well as straight up lying about it. He’s one of my favorite producers ever but he’s definitely bold face lied on some things.

Oh well. Hopefully it’ll be a nice surprise for 2021

98 Sabre’s was one of my favorites off that album, I’d gladly take a project with those songs or something close to it.
