Conway The Machine has revealed that he sent a direct message to Drake after he dropped “8AM In Charlotte,” and it was quite complementary.
The Buffalo, New York native sat down with Acton Entertainment on Monday (November 27), where he was asked how he felt about Drizzy’s collaboration with Conductor Williams and the “Griselda influence” embedded in the track.

“Shout out to Conductor, the beat was crazy,” he began. “I think I posted a DM — I DMed them or something, with the mind-blown emojis. Like, ‘Bro, it’s not even — it’s starting to not even be fair no more.’ But nah, dog, that shit was fire.”
Check out the full interview below. The comments about Drake begin at about the 7:50 mark.
Conway and Conductor, his longtime production collaborator, are set to release a joint project called Conductor Machine on Friday (December 1). And that’s not all the Griselda MC is cooking.
Last month, during a chat with HipHopDX, J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League‘s Erik “Rook” Ortiz confirmed that he and his partner Kevin “Colione” Crowe are also preparing a project with Conway.
Rook made it clear that it will arrive after Conway’s Won’t He Do It 2, a planned sequel to the rapper’s project from this past May.
“We can do it all, we can carry a whole album and we can make it sound phenomenal,” he began, referring to their recent work with Jeezy. “Next up for us is Conway The Machine. We’re doing that whole album with Conway. We’re in talks with a lot of other artists right now to do their whole albums.”

He continued: “And so Jeezy’s is [our] first foray into full-album territory. I think Hit-Boy knocked it out the park with Nas and he set the blueprint, and I’m glad that we can offer up something really cool like this.”
