Conway The Machine got caught up in Atlanta earlier this year while he was moving around solo.
In a new interview for Bootleg Kev’s podcast on Monday (August 17), the Griselda rapper opened up about being robbed in the A while on tour in the pre-COVID days. (Remember those?) While he says he didn’t get too upset over it, he admits the incident did put him on high alert.
“Rappers ain’t safe just ’cause you a rapper,” Conway cautioned. “Like bro, I got robbed. I got robbed in Atlanta, bruh. This was the first day of the tour. That tour that ended at the Novo? The first show was in Atlanta. I’m leaving the mall, nigga caught me lacking – snatched the door open. But I just charge that shit to the game ’cause I know how it is.”
He went on to say the incident caused him to always carry something on him out of paranoia.

“So now that paranoia is back,” he admitted. “Now I gotta have a 50 clip on me. I don’t get to feeling too comfortable. ‘Cause I’m the type of nigga – I have no fears of nothing or nobody. You feel me? I know God… All the shit I been through, if I could get through that nigga I ain’t worried about no nigga or nothing happening to me! So I be everywhere by myself.”
The Shady Records signee recently announced his album From King To A God will be released on September 11. The 11-track effort will feature appearances by Method Man, Freddie Gibbs, Mobb Deep’s Havoc (who also contributes on production), DeJ Loaf, his Griselda groupmates and more.
Listen to the album’s Meth-featured single “Lemon” below.
Maybe he wouldn’t of gotten robbed if he wasn’t rocking chains and designer at the mall making a scene. What’s crazy is the same people who think it’s dope thst he carries a gun are the same people against Trump and the 2nd amendment. Losers
Being anti-Trump is not the same thing as being against the 2nd amendment, lil boy. Not everything is about politics. Go take your b*tch ass back to breitbart.
Thank you. I’m so exhausted with everyone making everything about politics. A rapper got robbed earlier this year… it’s because Trump/Trump haters. Like really? What a fucking bore you must be.
Fuck your cult Hillary and Obama are snakes in the grass brainwashed sucka
He should be able to wear what he paid for
Good to know you stay strapped at all times now. See you soon.
this comment won the internet my dude, straight up
Jay Z would have given griselda more publicity by now. Eminem, like nas, doesn’t give a fuck about his acts
Admits to getting robbed, but then let’s everyone know how tough he really is. Classic.
where did he say that, clown? he actually said the opposite, about being paranoid and never too comfortable
Don’t get in feelings over a rapper. Since you’re on his dick so hard, strap up and protect him when he comes to your city, like you try to protect him on here.
@DoomBot #2387 @Mike B Stop it you two!!!!
Anybody can get caught slipping, I think it’s real he would even admit it. That being said, ALL RAPPERS, please stop trying to live regular. The whole point is to get money to experience new shit, not trying to do the same shit you did when you were regular. It’s not about being real, it’s about reality…
Real…
Its not real.. but you speaking on real street shit on record.. so in reality that’s some hypocritical shit. If you left the streets but you still talk about it on record and you not active.. is some corny ass shit. Fuck outta here.. you niggaz really get caught up with these entertainers trying to sell their fake “art” story. None of these niggaz can do shit but rap. You grown ass niggaz need to stop thinking like kids.. ROFL.
Another convicted felon admitting on social media to be carrying a firearm which is a felony. What a dumbass
Conway actually seems like a humble enough dude. I know he made some bad decisions, did some time and he probably shouldn’t have said this publicly. But what the fuck is he supposed to do now? Not carry a firearm? That could be a life and death gamble for a dude like him.
Hes supposed to not brag about it in an interview like absolute moron considering the undisputed facts the original poster laid out. Is it really that hard for you to understand that discretion is important? You are your folks are lost souls that care more about showing off and acting tough on social media than moving correctly.
Isn’t that the norm these rap days… dry snitching on yourself.. I sold this, I shot this person… I truly don’t think rappers realize your telling on yourself.. no haterism just being real..
I thought dude was meant to be gangsta? How is he gonna say he just gonna charge that to the game. Go find that mofo and get him back if you gangsta and be talking the shit you do on your songs pussy boy
