I’m not gonna lie: I don’t listen to a lot of rap these days.

Let me rephrase that: I don’t really listen to a lot of rap these days, because I feel I’ve outgrown today’s format. I mean, this site has been around for over 10 years now; clearly Shake and I are in our 30s at this point, so a lot of the rap music of today is something we don’t necessarily connect with.

Granted, we appreciate artists like Baby Keem and Summer Walker, but those are exceptions and not the rules.

Needless to say, we’re fans of artists who create music whose sound is rooted in a particular era of our lives, and the entire Griselda crew — Westside Gunn, Conway The Machine and Benny The Butcher (who just dropped a project with Smoke DZA and Pete Rock) — make music that reminds us of our younger days.

Now, with their long-awaited Shady Records debut, WWCD, dropping November 29th, the trio have released the first offering from it: “Dr. Birds.”

Check out the Daringer and Beat Butcha-laced banger below.
