Westside Gunn Announces He Will Retire From Rapping In 2020

[surv2syn]

Retiring with zero legacy............

to be fair, I dont think he was ever in it for rap anyway. listening to them in interviews...he was rapping more as a hobby. it was Conway and Benny that were really serious about it. WSG wanted to start a label and clothing line and he used his raps to fund that.

Y’all crazy... fly god be snapping. Hard. nikkas don’t swag on a track like fly god.

I swear I’m an optimist and not a pessimistic cynical person, but at this point? I feel like this is more of Dre trying to get cool points and clout chasing than it is actually trying to help Mach in any way. It strikes me as Dre being like “see y’all? I’m still plugged in!” And Mach please don’t get tied up with Dre or Interscope.

Even if he is. I dunno. I feel like Dre’s been out of touch locked up in his own vault for way too long to have a good finger on the pulse in 2019.

Edit: Mach fans y’all know what joint this is?

I'd figure that Muggs was in the stu with Dre, they homies right?


Anyways issa Dump Gawd win for sure Mach being recognized by greats

:machommy:

This nicca is the 2019 version of Saigon.

Ain't nobody checking for this semi-talented bum.

Why do rappers say or want to retire anyway? Out of every music genre rappers are the only ones that think being an old rapper is a bad thing.

This shyt made you nikkas millionaires and y'all could really keep touring and getting money they rest of y'all lives but y'all want to retire for what? What you gonna do get a regular job now.

And none of them retire anyway so why even say it if you don't know 1000% that you will be done. If I was a rapper I'm a be on that stage in a wheelchair doing shows. fukk da dumb shyt.

But hey OLD MAN after some years if you ain't got it

Lay it down, put it down, find a way to try and stop it

Or change it, rearrange it, be a producer

Don't touch the microphone because you'll always be the loser

And laughed at, smirked on, you don't belong

GRANDPA nobody wanna hear those old war stories ...all fukking night long

yo, let's get specific

The Coke Rap style is for the YOUNG.. the gifted... financialy uplifted

Twitter Fingers!

Mach the G.O.D

 

[Soymuscle Mike]

Dre is close with Muggs, bet that's where the Mach-Hommy drop comes from.

 

[Morose Polymath]

That’s how I see it too, not that Mach needs a Dre co-sign at this point....I just find it funny that the boss of Westside Gunn’s “boss” is listening to his biggest rival in his spare time

Life is funny sometimes. No matter how many times you may win, sometimes you still hold an L in the end

Benny right now:

I can’t front though, if it wasn’t for WSG I would’ve never discovered a handful of my current favorite emcees(Conway, Benny, Mach, Tha God Fahim)

 

[ExodusNirvana]

Man please stop...just stop

Chris Benoit was fire, as was the FlyGod shyt

Just keep dropping tapes and doing shows, you'll be straight

Yeah somehow WSG has the biggest profile but Benny and Conway have more natural sounding musicality in their shyt. He knows how to A&R records though.

Imagine him Exec producing a Ghostface record with the caliber of beats that he had on Blientele.
