    With his debut album on Shady Records, Conway the Machine shows that he remains a gifted lyricist and a good storyteller, yet hardly offers anything original.

    A project paved with neat surprises. If Conway doesn't leave the main artistic direction taken by Griselda Records on most of the tracks here ('Lock Load', 'Piano Love', 'Drumwork' or even 'Babas'), he also lets room to other pleasant explorations. Explorations in which he tackles a variety of themes on a variety of flows: and that's what he's been lacking in recently.
    My first observation was on 'So much More', where he manages to install some interesting statements contributing to shine through magnificent choirs. We can feel both his despair and hope, his fatigue and remaining resources in a never-ending fight. I have to admit that the previous song 'Stressed' kind of prepared the ground for such a emotional and introspective feature.
    Then came 'Wild Chapters' with the distinguished help from major producer Hit-Boy, 'Guilty' in which Conway reflects on his past and the major events of his life, and eventually the last title 'God Don't Make Mistakes' paced with The Alchemist's great contribution. All these tracks constitute the hidden hems of the record, while the rest sadly fails to provide anything notably new or fresh in Conway the Machine's discography in my opinion even if the second leg of the album sees more pace-changing tracks that are a real relief.
    Featurings are precious though as they help in breaking Conway's monotonous tone. Jill Scott's vocals are a true blessing on 'Chanel Pearls' for example.    … Full Review »

Seeing Conway at his most vulnerable creates something special. I feel for him. He is been through so much and expresses himself so well on this album. I cried when I heard "stressed". Easily one of the best Griselda albums, period. Amazing… Full Review »
