Now, I know a lot of people give a lot of flack towards West Side Gunn, simply because people are saying that Kanye West is heavily influenced, is a heavy influencer on him being Grammy nominated. And to that, I would have to say that right place, right time is a real thing, but with success comes opportunity meeting preparation. So not to say that, Westside Gunn is the most talented person in the world to be Grammy nominated, but obviously he was prepared to be on the track with Kanye West, hence why this man is actually Grammy nominated. Now, Romney even covering this simply for the fact that he is putting out, well, not, not

putting out, French Montana is putting out an album, basically at mixtape, a project, you know, the names get mixed up nowadays. Cheese 5, which is definitely an extension of the highly critically acclaimed mixtape series, which started in 2009. So this is the fifth installment, obviously, Mac and Cheese 5. And not only that, but French Montana has been going to extreme lengths to promote this album. And I think it will come up, it will cultivate into an actual successful project because I don't

think you can get these type of names and not do well on the charts. like at least 20 to 30,000 first week is strictly off of names alone from people just want to hear their specific artists on whatever this tracklist has. I mean, I didn't even say Chris Brown when I covered the entire album, but he's also on this album. And when you have Chris Brown, I don't even think I said a little baby. I don't think I said Sway Lee. Like, this man has a star-studied cast.

And for that to be the case, I just think that West Side Gun and Kanye West being towards the top literally it's number three on the track list i think it's for a reason and they are going to give a certain start to the album that i think well i think what they performed in the studio gave a certain type of vibe that french montenna was like that is how i want to start off my album and how i want my features to sound throughout the entire body of work because if you think about it you don't think it's weird that the Kanye and the Drake track are towards the top of the track listing but one is like after the other like is where they're at Kanye West and Westside Gunn, Free Jeffrey and then big pun by Drake.

That is kind of weird in a sense because you would think that the whole order of the track list would be very important not only for a Drake but also for Kanye West. So that's why I keep bringing it up because obviously they say they don't have beef, but come on now. So seeing how French Montana pulled this off, I don't know how he did it, but that man needs like a nomination for a noble peace prize or something in the hip hop community because that is a feat in itself, getting them on this track list so early into the album. Because usually if you have a big name artist, you'll either have them in the middle or at the end of your album. So for another artist, like, no disrespect, but for like a Rich the kid, right? He doesn't matter. He doesn't care where you put him on the album.

And a person like Kanye or Drake, they'll probably want to be either in the middle, towards the end, or towards the beginning of the album. Keep that in mind for all the superstar rappers out there. So anyways, with that being said, I think the Kanye West and Westside Gun track is going to be fire obviously is at number three so french montana probably thought it was fire as well and wanting to start off his album with this and um i mean obviously you have wanted to but it's the first track with features and people no disrespect to french montana but at this point people come for the features so with that being said click my link tree in my bio let me know one of my social medias what do you

think about conier west and west side guns track where they at as far as the promotion because west side gun's definitely been promoting this and do you think that this would be end up being the best track on the album or no
