    It's the best Griselda album so far.

    Griselda's biggest problem was their work ethic. They were releasing 2-3 projects every year and their sound was starting to get old. But this album sounds nothing like old Griselda projects. Better production, better flows, better lyrics. Conway really outdid himself with this one.

    Fantastic album... album of the year contender for me... no doubt. Can't wait for Benny The Butcher' album

    One of the greatest albums ever made imo it’s like going back in time! to the early to mid 90’s golden era of hip hop, Conway shows growth and versatility switching up his flows to accommodate the different beat styles whilst still hitting us with bar after bar of pure fire

    Despite the album having a few filler tracks, Machine may just end up with the crown on the album cover if he continues the route he’s currently on.

    A consistently striking and highly collaborative full-length that, despite its hospitable quality, is the Griselda member's most exemplary solo release yet -- his most considered display of grim street bulletins and snarling admonitions.

    From King to a GOD is arguably one of the best Griselda projects thus far and a viable contender for year-end lists. Conway’s versatility is on full display throughout the album, exhibiting his growth as an artist who is coming into his own in his late thirties.
