Conway the Machine

With his raw lyrics, methodical, menacing style and unmistakable ad-libs, Conway the Machine from Buffalo is praised for his relentless stream of albums, mixtapes and collaborations. After nearly losing his life in a shooting in 2012, the MC focused entirely on music. Together with his brother and fellow artist Westside Gunn, he founded Griselda Records, with which he became a key figure in the revival of the New York rap scene. He later left Griselda to focus on his own label, Drumwork, and continued his prolific release schedule with recent releases such as ‘You Can’t Kill God With Bullets’ and ‘G.O.A.T.’
