Conway The Machine & The Alchemist: Calvin
Fresh visuals from the Conway and Alchemist project which was given life on Friday. Calvin is more of the tough street commentary that has brought Conway and his Griselda family so much praise over recent years, and combined with Alchemist’s moody production it stands as a solid release in both artists catalogues. The video for Calvin was made by Jason Goldwatch. LULU is out now.
Conway the Machine & The Alchemist ft. Schoolboy Q: Shoot Sideways
Conway and Alchemist have an album on the way, continuing Griselda’s year on year rise and perhaps serving up one of the year’s best in the process. Shoot Sideways is a good indicator of what’s coming, with Conway and Alc drafting in TDE favourite, Schoolboy Q, for a patois tinged hook. The album, LULU, is due for release this month, with pre-orders available now.
Skyzoo & Pete Rock: Retropolitan (Stream)
This week we finally got to explore the much anticipated collaboration from Skyzoo and Pete Rock, as they released their Retropolitan LP.

The Alchemist: Bread EP (Stream)
Excellent new release from The Alchemist, as he drafts in a whole wealth of talent on his latest project. The Bread EP features Earl Sweatshirt – the video for which was released last week – alongside appearances from Conway, Westside Gunn, Black Thought and Roc Marciano. Considering the whole thing only weighs in at four tracks – plus four instrumentals – Alc has managed to cram in a hell of a lot of dope. It also features some of the most glorious cover art of 2018. You can stream the Bread EP below, as well as on all the other usual platforms. Continue reading “The Alchemist: Bread EP (Stream)”
