Griselda Squad is in 1st PLACE currently when it comes to underground hip-hop. This is their third project of 2020, making this Conway The Machine's 2nd out. The other project was Westside Gunn with Pray For Paris. I guess Benny is taking 3rd and 4th quarter. He is Jordan on that team. Just know, this TEAM is on FIRE and not even Coronavirus can stop them. Shout out to Westside Gunn for kicking Corona's ass. He smacked the fuck out of that bitch.
I'll be reviewing mostly on FRIDAYS or the weekend.
My daughter and I also have clothing lines. Please click below to support. Thanks in advance. Now, BACK to our regularly scheduled REVIEW.

Review:
Okay, this is not a debate this come around. Conway said himself that this is officially an album. He blessed us with the project "Lulu" with the legendary production from The Alchemist earlier this year. This come around, Conway teams up with another great producer, Big Ghost LTD. Let's just say, The Alchemist has some competition.
And the title "LEGEND" should now be attached to this MC's name. It's well overdue if you know this man's catalog. His catalog of albums is ridiculous. He's becoming into his skin and will be a contender for BAR SMITH of the year.
People have been in doubt about gangsta rap for years. They seem to believe it would of dried out. They figured it would disappear. NOPE! With MC's like Conway, it's now in heavy rotation. He's one of the Underground Kings that brought it back up to the surface. And this project is smacking you in the face with that.
Let's talk about these BEATS Mr. Machine murdered. Not sure if y'all know who Big Ghost LTD is, but I do. I was introduced to him mid last year. Projects like "Griselda Ghost" with Conway & Westside Gunn and "The Only Way Out" with Rigz & Mooch. Actually, the album "The Only Way Out" is on my TOP 20 Hip-Hop albums of 2019. It made it to 17th and WWCD was the 20th.
Big Ghost beats are very hardcore and street, but have that melody that merges the sounds into some of the best beats so far this year. If your reading or watching me Mr. Ghost, keep these sinister beats coming. And you need to do an album with Ransom, Roc Marciano and Che-Noir.
Conway hasn't forgotten his crew from around the way. Flee Lord and El Camino join Conway on this project with that sound that is just soothing to the ears. Every time they are on a track, they don't disappoint. Check out Flee Lord and El Camino's projects. I was wishing Eto would drop a verse. Speaking of Eto, I'll be reviewing him too today. His album dropped too.
MICS: 4.83 (Almost a #HipHopClassic in my ears) Thank you Conway The Machine.
