To say it's been an eventful year for Wiley would be an understatement. The Godfather of Grime has been steadily poking at more prominent members of the grime community as well as much bigger artists such as Drake and Ed Sheeran. But in the midst of all of this, he's continued to promote Godfather 3 with some major singles such as "Boasty" and "My One."
This week, Wiley finally unleashed Godfather 3 in its entirety. With 22 tracks in total, the project's tracklist has no credited features. A major contrast from the tracklist he shared last August that included appearances from Nicki Minaj and Popcaan, though neither came into fruition in the end.
Godfather 3 ultimately marks his final album, or so he says. Check it out below.
