Rome Streetz – Kiss The Ring

The album was executive produced by Westside Gunn with barz served by Benny The Butcher, Conway The Machine, Westside Gunn himself, Armani Caesar, and several other Griselda labelmates.
Rome maintains his gritty delivery and lyrics, inviting his fans into his thoughts.
Mount Westmore – Too Big
If The Avengers were a music group, they would be Mount Westmore. The rap collective includes OGs from the West Coast: Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, E-40, and Too $hort.
“Too Big” is the group’s first release together. Give it a listen for the nostalgia, and newbies can also see how rap is truly done.
French Montana feat. NAV – Fenty
French Montana and NAV are ensuring they ride the momentum gained by their recent album releases. Montana’s Montega LP and NAV’s Demons Protected By Angels are enjoying a lot of replays. With “Fenty,” they might have dropped a banger with replay value.
