Conway The Machine has canceled all dates on the I’ll Tell You Later Tour, which was supposed to begin on September 6 in Seattle, Washington.
The Griselda rapper broke the news to his fans on Friday (August 26) with an Instagram post but failed to provide much detail. Instead, he quickly changed the subject.
“Well, the bad news is the tour is canceled,” he wrote in the caption. “The good news is my pack has finally landed and you all will be getting your merch that you ordered any day now.”
Theories were rampant in the comment section — anywhere from ticket sales were too low to bad booking. But the most Conway offered was a shrugging emoji.
The I’ll Tell You Later Tour was originally comprised of 20 dates and would’ve wrapped up on October 6 in Minneapolis.
The last time Conway took his catalog on the road was in May when he and his Griselda brethren, Benny The Butcher and Westside Gunn, did a 10-date run, which included stops in Boston, New York City, Washington, Atlanta, Dallas and Los Angeles.

Conway The Machine’s most recent album, God Don’t Make Mistakes, arrived in February with guest features from Beanie Sigel, Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, 7xvethegenius, Jae Skeese, T.I., Novel, Benny the Butcher, Westside Gunn, Wallo267, Jill Scott and Keisha Plum. While it wasn’t necessarily a commercial success (it peaked at No. 175 on the Billboard 200), the album netted “universal acclaim” on Metacritic.
HipHopDX has reached out to Conway’s team for additional details on the cancelation. As for the aforementioned Conway The Machine merch, check it out here.
I went to Europeaan tour date. He was masterful at it. It’s stad thé american fans won’t be able to witness it.
He’s a fuckin clown no matter where he goes. One does not simply un-clown himself by changing their geographical location like that. Maybe dude could join the circus instead – They are always looking for good clowns. And dude’s a clown alright!!!
what makes you say that? clown why?
Just look at the man’s face how you gonna take anyone looking like that seriously. He’s a fuckin gimp.
He suffered a gsw
A golden state warriors?
What’s with the fuckin mean mug face every time.. i swear every time i see a photo of this guy he’s doing the 2003 mean mug.. is that like a gimmick he thought was gonna be cool? maybe back in 2003 you could do that mean mug like couple times a year but this guy been doing it for years.. it’s ridiculous
I can’t tell if this is a joke or not lol. If it’s not, know that he took a bullet to the neck and half of his face is paralyzed.
he has bells palsy bro half his face is paralyzed lol you cant even make that face if you tried, that would be a crazy ass mug if he was just fakin the bells palsy tho that’s funny lol but nah he got shot in the head/neck
Between Bennys stupid beef with Freddie Gibbs and Conway cancelling his tour I think Flex was right – Griselda ain’t selling
Love Conway and Benny but no way I would attend any of these shows considering how tough these dudes insist they are IN REAL LIFE TODAY. Bound to be nothing but knuckleheads and troublemakers at any of their shows
that’s funny you say that cause other dude commented all their fans are weird nerdy white kids lol.
both is true, the 1 show I went to it was a hood crowd but it was also mostly grown men n shit like if you goin to a concert to get into some bullshit at 35-40 years old you a loser lol
nobody got hurt tho I dont think
Word u supposed to be there for a good time not no bs agreed
I went to a Benny concert and it was a mixed with backpack rap kids, old head grimey NY hip hop heads, and college aged crowed.
I don’t know bout Conway, but Benny puts on a pretty good show.
I fuck with Griselda but I think they oversaturated at the time they should’ve been more selective on a major. Projects keep getting weaker and weaker
Exactly. It should be quality over quantity, not the other way around. There’s no more hype since the releases are getting stale as fuck. It’s over for these Griselda pansies.
now why you gotta do like that? they mighta sold mad tickets but the midwest cities werent good so why run a whole tour.
you made a point or 2 but I dont see where you get “pansies” from now you just look like a hater instead of somebody making valid points
Agreed
Oversaturation would effect album sales but It wouldn’t really effect if people are showing up or not.
If fans aren’t checking for you like they used to, the venues are gonna be harder to fill, with rap anyway.
Gotta be low ticket sales. It was probably the promoter who pulled out after the venues complained they would be loosing money. A video of him performing in front of 20 people wont help his career either.
yessir this guy fell off.. aint nobody checkin for griselda no more. facts.
Tge thing with all of Griselda is only a small amount of weirdo white obsessed nerd fans fuck with them. Most people have heard them and like a track or two, but fell that they put out WAY too much music, and are right. I bet Conway thought he was clever and made this tour a thing where he kept a huge percentage of the door, thinking that would be the money play, instead of saying something like I want 10K a date or whatever. Well. Here is the result. Shut in your fans and look stupid. Also, merchants fans paid for that they wait to receive? LOL. Lame as fuck.
Idk about that bro you cant look at everybody with a strong core fanbase and be like “oh nobody really fucks w em” that’s how it always works. mainstream too but for them its just hidden by the image and the branding.
not to say they dont have a bunch of diehard white fans who dont know the first thing about what they talkin bout, and I also think they should have took a little more care to make sure their most quality music got handled properly before they started getting kinda stale (Conway had a classic album in him but all the best shit hes done is scattered all over and wasnt treated or even finished properly like a potentially classic record should be) but that was what they had to do to get on
and dont get it fucked up their whole fanbase is not scrawny white kids I went to the 2019 show & the main venue in my city is right on the border of the Northside so it can be any kinda crowd, that crowd was no joke lol if I remember correct I think was even shootin in the parking lot while the show was wrappin up.
every comment sounds like funk master flex hatin ass..
Probably didnt sell enough tickets. Ive seen clips from his live shows and they seem terrible. Adlibs on all his tracks, bare rapping every other line. Walking around in wack ass clothes. I dont know man, dude needs a rebrand for his live shows. Also, he got no deal now. Its starting to feel like Conway will be a thing of the past soon.
Go and support your own culture then. Fuckin disgusting white vulture.
HahahAhahaha clips of his show? I’ve been to over 4 of his performances one he was the headliner solo without Griselda. He KILLS IT. Last Griselda show in LA the crowd went to another level when he came out on stage. Speak on what you KNOW not clips. I love internet haters. You guys are awesome.
Damn yall got mad for no reason. Starting to think yall on Conways payroll. Lmao.
Also, if you really wanna see a dope live shows go see Busta, mop or Redman. Thats the gold standard. Bet money youd think Conway wack live after that.
Just to hate
Went to his May show in Toronto. Before you non travelling closed minded ignorants chime in know it was a grimey crowd. Yes, Toronto has grimey people just like most places on this earth. I’ve been to hundreds of hip hop concerts and mostly by artists who are hardbody with the image/style (Wu, Sean Price rip and BCC you get the idea) Most of the crowd is usually a mix of knuckleheads, backpackers and people you just wouldn’t expect. But it’s been a while since I was legitimately concerned. The place was packed and mostly by knuckleheads for sure. I told my boy there were some definite killers in the venue that night. As for the performance, Conway’s delivery was top notch. A wordsmith who takes his craft seriously. If he is not your cup of tea he’s not but to say he is wack or garbage is ridiculous. He can spit with anyone. If you haven’t been to his show not sure how anyone can conclude in the negative towards this man.
LOL. Grimes people in Toronto. Sounds like someone is scared of cornball black folk. Hahahaha. Bunch of bitches in Canada.
Wanna meet up and smash? I like bbc
You couldn’t handle my bbc whitey.
And you a nerd too bitch. Lemme grab yo
Cheeks and stick it in
I’m not aware of any america proud rap dudes in my travel. no one black or involved in rap in any real way would say “bunch of bitches in canada” only white american losers say sht like that
Look at the Canadian trying to sound hard. People are on here sounding off from where hip-hop was invented and where the bloods and crips come from. You’re a goofy nerd saying that grimy Toronto shit. The hardest shit in Toronto project wise is fucking Bel Air. Nerd. Please STFU clown. Motherfucker thinks Drake is a MC. LOL
sound like a stupid idiot – proud of slums like morons. next you’ll be bragging about having 3 times more Wendy’s than Toronto. Real dudes make money in all kinds of places. losers hug on blocks change those piss-stained drawers first before talking about mandem
Shut the fuck up.nobody grimey in Toronto cuz all y’all a bunch of vaccinated soon to be dead pussies that couldn’t stand up to trudeu
Tours only get cancelled cuz of low ticket sales or health emergencies so if he not in a hospital soon then there’s your answer.shoulda stayed yo ass with griselda
lot of liars on this board – all kinds of griselda concert footage on Youtube where you see dudes ripping through rhyme after rhyme live onstage with just a DJ no lip synching and also very clear stage just two three dudes. I hate fucking liars trying to act hard talking garbage. Says mans can’t rhyme live all this lies that is clearly disproven. Not even a big griselda supporter not big on thug rap but why does this site have so many fkn liars? why does this site attract all these proud boy losers? Is it the eminem connection? 50 cent? what is it?
All I know is I saw a clip of him perfoming Lemon and didnt damn near rap any of his verse. Walking around in short shorts and a vest with no shirt under. Not my cup of tea to say the least.
I wonder if Conway will tell us later why the tour got cancelled.
