Beats on here crazy. I dont mind Nack on Bobby Rhude. I'm more enchanted by the sample

Flow is fine
He's off beat as fukk. It could work if he was dope but he's not even saying anything noteworthy most of the time.

This shyt is wack to me. The overly long tracks, the extended skits, the repetitive beats, no Conway/Benny/etc, not enough Stovegod...ehhhh.

Glad someone else said it & it’s not just me who’s not feeling the majority of this.

Very underwhelming, but like I said it’s just the appetiser to the main album and I got two dope tracks that will see a lot of spin so that’ll tide me over till Michelle records drops.

Listened again and like @Morose Polymath said this Don cat ain’t it.

Outside of Big Ass Bracelet which is one of two stand outs on this for me, his other beats are just kinda eh to me.

Stove god absolute SPAZZES on Jesus crack! But at 8 mins I’m not gonna be really playing that one much and I’m not a fan of the beat anyways.

Derrick Boleman as I previously mentioned is the other stand out to me, sample is dope on this one & will get a lot of play from me.

Horses on Sunset had me head nodding, first half of it sounds like a typical Griselda-esque type beat that we’ve all heard before. Kinda underwhelming from Madlib tbh. Wish we had another track like Derrick Boleman from him but it is what it is. This one sounded like madlib doing his best Daringer impression. That Don Dude does it earlier in one of his tracks also.

Open Praise I liked it’s just far too short.

Conductor NAILED Danhausen. What can I say Conductor always delivers.

Daringer got done dirty with a short outro.

I usually like Nack projects but on this he just seems to mumble his way through tracks, Stove as always goes crazy on most the tracks.

Standouts that will see play from me:

Big Ass Bracelet
Derick Boleman
DanHausen

Anyone know when Michelle Records is supposed to drop

Gonna add to my initial post

It was made in 48 hours minimal mixing & mastering if any. Wes’ himself said fukk both of those. Estee Nack mumbles over it. Stove God Spazzes on every track, you can’t count the intro & outro, so you got 8 new songs and if your a fan of Wes’ Stove or Nack you got new material.

Besides Daringer & Mayhem dropped the first Black Vlad single & Boldy dropped two features w Nick Craven & Raz Fresco, Griselda fans eating regardless.

This was just an appetiser till Michelle Records to tide people over. Wes’ didn’t even have to drop it. Half this fanbase is entitled the other half just eats up anything that anyone from Griselda puts out blindly. Idk what people were expecting from this. Personally I love three songs. I’m glad we got this because I wouldn’t have got those tracks otherwise. Am I gonna bump this project again outside of the three tracks I love & the two I like? Probably a no.

Derick Boleman
Big Ass Bracelet
Danhausen

All three will be in constant rotation

Horses on Sunset will also see play & Open Praise despite it being a little too short.

Everything else I’m indifferent to. Stove Spazzes on Jesus Crack, but at 8 mins I’m not gonna be listening to it again. This is Frank Murphy 2 pretty much.

I usually like Estee Nack Projects but idk wtf he was tryna do on this. Damn near ruined most of the project but it is what it is. Stove saved it pretty much. I’m ready for that Stove Griselda Debut & that Stove & Wes’ album needs to happen ASAP.
