Griselda’s 2020 run cemented their legacy in hip-hop. Not only did they finally receive their rightful recognition with accolades to show for it, but they did it in the middle of a pandemic. Of course, that’s largely due to the strength of the fanbase they’ve built over the years. But even when they couldn’t hit the road, their fans stood by them in anticipation for their next release.
After recently ending rumors that he will be departing from Griselda, he blessed fans with yet another collaborative project alongside Big Ghost Ltd titled, If It Bleeds It Can Be Killed. On “J Batters,” Big Ghost offers a cinematic production for Conway who kicks things off with a shout out to his incarcerated friend before declaring that he’s responsible “for keepin’ grimey rap alive” with a laundry list of reasons to prove it.
Conway the Machine & Big Ghost LTD. – J Batters (prod. Big Ghost LTD.)
[Intro]
Uh-huh
Doot, doot, doot, doot, doot, doot
What you heard, nigga?
Uh, look
[Chorus]
Free J Batters, my guy (Free my nigga)
I light up a Backy full of gas and strategize (Smoke)
And think how I’m about to capitalize and see my capital rise
Bags maximized, the Glocks, TECs, and the MACs is mines (That’s mines, nigga)
Mastermind, your flow ain’t polished, I mastered mines (Hah)
My last design gave niggas classic vibes (Woo)
Niggas violated, we has to slide (Brr)
Niggas violated, we has to slide (Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom)
[Verse]
Look, nigga, I could get you whacked for five
Shooter run down and clap the side of your face and don’t bat a eye (Uh-huh)
When I craft a line, God strike me if I spat a lie (God strike me)
Sold eight, played with snow too, god, I’m Allen I (Hahahaha)
I don’t need rap, I just contact my guy
He throwin’ bricks like Shaq at the line when he was past his prime (Ha)
Two bank accounts, but I was more of a money-under-the-mattress guy
Buckshot his leg, it burnt half his thigh (Boom)
Don’t act surprised when you walk in the Louis store
And they say, “I’m sorry, we don’t have that design” (Talk to ’em)
Virgil made a one-of-one jacket and told me that it’s mine
No rapper alive has a catalog to match with mines (Not at all)
No rapper as fly, except the guy with a patch on eye
You get outta line, we gon’ slide, then it’s ratchet time (Brrr)
Ain’t nobody pass me a dime for this shit, nigga
I just had to stack and grind, I just had to come and take back what’s mines (I’m back, nigga)
Niggas hated on me, and that was fine (That’s cool)
The teachers said I wasn’t gon’ be shit, I told her, “That’s a lie” (Bitch, you see me)
I fraternize with niggas that sell ’em whole
They don’t even unwrap the pies, 500-brick smack supply (Uh-huh)
Nigga, we gettin’ big money, nigga
One-thousand-brick smack supply (Woo)
Ask your guys, the Machine the nigga responsible for keepin’ grimy rap alive, nigga, ah (Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom)
[Chorus]
Free J Batters, my guy (Free my nigga)
I light up a Backy full of gas and strategize (Smoke)
And think how I’m about to capitalize and see my capital rise
Bags maximized, the Glocks, TECs, and the MACs is mines (That’s mines, nigga)
Mastermind, your flow ain’t polished, I mastered mines (Huh)
My last design gave niggas classic vibes (Woo)
Niggas violated, we has to slide (Brr)
Niggas violated, we has to slide (Talk to ’em, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom)
