Conway, Westside Gunn and the whole Griselda team have had a pretty solid 2017. Aside from establishing themselves as a label, Westside Gunn and Conway also penned a deal with Eminem's Shady Records. Conway dropped two other projects this year and is capping it off with the third. Today, he finally drops his mixtape G.O.A.T.
While Westside Gunn initially said the mixtape would drop on Christmas Day, Conway decided to deliver it a little earlier than expected. On G.O.A.T., Conway comes through with a a 10 track mixtape filled with boom-bap gold. He brings some legendary rappers to assist him on the project with the likes of Raekwon, Styles P, Royce Da 5'9" and Lloyd Banks coming through for stand out guest appearances. In addition to that, the mixtape also features a posthumous verse from Prodigy (R.I.P.) and of course, he grabs Westside Gunn and Benny for an appearance. As far as production goes, Daringer handles the majority of it while Alchemist comes through for the second track, "TRUMP."
