The second mixtape Conway released under Griselda Records. While other group members like Benny the Butcher were still searching for their signature sound at the time, Conway already knew what he does best—grimy coke raps over cold-blooded boom bap beats. Granted, Conway has always been an artist I really enjoy, but never one that I love, contrary to the other two Griselda emcees. However, when he's on, he's fucking on. His highest peaks and greatest tracks can go head-to-head with anyone ... read more
[Conway The Machine's discography ranking 1/16]

Reject 2 is an essential Grizelda mixtape with drumless/boom-bap production and some of the hardest bars humans can think of. On this mixtape, Conway the Machine is a beast showing his fantastic beat selection, impressive rhymes, and word-plays.
Conway's first project (that I know of and listen to you are also with me on that one) and I could listen to "Rex Ryan" all day that beat is insane. Daringer really makes himself a household name after this record, and Conway proves himself to be a standout lyricist. It has that perfect length and besides "30 Shells" being a bit boring the rest of this project is incredible. I would start here for any new Conway fan.
Blakk Tape, Rex Ryan, Beloved, Salute me and Air Holez are amazing. Absolute classic from Conway!!
