3017432, Westside Gunn- Flygod is an awesome god
Posted by stone_phalanges, Fri Jul-05-19 09:08 AM
This is lackluster to me. I love the rest of his stuff.
I'm from Buffalo so his stuff hits a special spot for me. This joint though, seems to be littered with all the stuff I don't like from him. There are too many audio clips from wrestling, art shows etc. waaaaaay to many songs where his verse is littered with his favorite new wack adlib (boom!boom!boom!boom!BOOM!!!!!more gun sounds). This is only for the biggest fans, but then again even I don't like this much.
This and the latest Benny EP were very skippable.

is the hear how on earth this dude performed on that Madlib produced track, seeing that he's barely pedestrian on the microphone.

Conway and Benn on the other hand? Monsters.

I still like dude as he has a good ear for beats and when holding one verse on a track he's an entertaining change of pace. But he's stuffing his last couple of releases with too much nonsense (skits, random wrestling snips that aren't funny, annoying adlibs).
Benny is the star of this crew for me.

I don't like the beat anymore because its just a loop. ALC didn't FLIP IT ENOUGH!

Hitler Wears Hermes 4, finally got me. Now, though...I just can't really take it, anymore. Like I said in the last Benny post...it's absolutely jarring when he comes on the song after Benny and Con. Plus, he doesn't even tell stories or anything...just references a car or pair of shoes and says "A'yo!!". I'm good.

3017445, Hmmm I'm actually enjoying this project more than I thought

And I definitely get listeners criticisms of his schtick after a while
but like you, I actually feel WSG coming with more than usual on first couple of songs on here. The production on WSG albums are always gonna get me to listen
to his projects. I love that Pete Sake beat.
I thought he was rocking on Bautista.
I don’t think he can touch the OG Amherst Station but the beat for all 3 in the series are dope.
