I know there are some Griselda super fans that are gonna hate back to back Benny projects with no Daringer :heh:

This should be dope. Fraud had a very dope and underrated 2020.
They ain’t gonna be able to use the “man Daringer sound getting dated shyt” cause he works with other producers. He got shyt locked with Daringer tho. This Fraud project been done

would've probably dropped earlier but Fraud Department album Fraud has with Jim Jones dropping first.



at the very least, Benny has a better ear for Daringer beats than Gunn at this point.
I'm not the biggest Daringer fan but Benny picked the right ones from him on TT3
When that Jim joint dropping ? And I thought GUnn executive producer tana 3

I know you didn’t ask me but the Jim joint was supposed to drop last month. So I’d think it’ll be dropping soon.

I never had a physical copy of TT3 but from what Benny’s said on a couple podcasts, he just let Daringer and Alchemist sequence the album for him. I’m sure WSG was probably involved on some level. Edit: yeah the back of the vinyl has him an executive producer.

It’s hard to know more recently. Burden of Proof and King to a God both lost WSG as the 2nd executive producer, but I know for a fact that on King to a God he had almost zero involvement on putting that album together.

Conway took everyone through the whole process last spring/summer. It was really dope. He’d play versions of Lemon Squeeze with WSG on it, and Spurs 3 with Flee Lord on it, and he let people in on how he was putting the album together. It was one of the dopest parts of being locked down early on the pandemic.

It ain't that bad. :whoa:
There's a lot of pros that come with it. If you're a guy you're already gonna age better. Just try to avoid cigarettes, drinking more than a couple times a month, and after 30 try to not eat like shyt and you should age pretty well. Oh, and don't let the sun cook you every summer. Besides me knees being fukked up from sports I actually feel more youthful in my mid 30's than I did in my mid 20's.

You'll be good breh. Like Benny said, "It's a man's world. You're at your best when you're middle aged."

Good luck with that. Grow old or die.
I struggled to accept that. But yeah. There really is no alternative. Men definitely don't have to take aging as hard as women do. I'll shut up because this isn't Higher Learning, but I wish as a society we had a more healthy take on the positives of aging instead of everyone trying to chase the fountain of youth.

I try to keep up with my health as much as I can, I do a lot of cardio and don’t smoke and barely drink any alcohol. Sometimes I even hit the basketball courts but not as regularly as I used to. Health is wealth first and foremost.

Found a pic of the back of TT3. It has WSG as Exec Producer but I got an time-coded interview below where Benny talks about the process. He asks Benny how many ideas he throws out for his own projects, and Benny says it was his idea to merge 2 different songs together to make '97 Hov. He also says almost all of it was recorded in 2017 even though it dropped late 2018, and that the Alchemist tracks were added gradually as they got cooler. Benny said he had the opportunity to sequence the album himself, but he let Daringer and Alchemist do it. He doesn't mention anything about WSG. I really think they just put WSG as Exec Producer on everything because he's in charge.
