Conway The Machine has previewed a new freestyle rapping over the instrumental for Kanye West’s Donda song, “Jail,” where he opens up about his relationships with Kanye and Eminem.
On the track, the Griselda rapper admits he felt bad about calling Eminem fans “nerds and stans” during his 2019 interview with VladTV.
“Would you love me if you knew the old me?” he raps. “Before the bag, before the rollie/Before I signed a deal with Shady with the rollie/Speaking of Shady, man, after my interview I did with Vlad I felt awful/But I learned you gotta watch what you say in interviews, it could cost you.”
He then reveals he has a better relationship with Kanye West than Eminem, but has no hard feelings toward the Detroit rap legend.
“One could say my relationship better with Ye than with Marshall,” he continues. “But I still ain’t nothing bad to ever say about Marshall/Just keeping it funky, I’m thankful for Marshall.”
Content curator Riki P. shared the video on Instagram, alleging Conway The Machine is dropping a new project before his Shady Records debut God Don’t Make Mistakes arrives on February 25.
“Early morning music session with @whoisconway was CRAZY!!!” he said. “The amount of new music he played was just ridiculous & sounded amazing! This freestyle on #Ye’s ‘Jail’ was on another level. He even wants to add another 20 bars like this wasn’t hard enough.”
He added, “If I heard clearly, La Maquina is dropping a teaser (guessing a mixtape) before the release of ‘God Don’t Make Mistakes’ on February 25th 2022. I won’t leak anything else but at least you get a taste of what’s to come.”
Conway The Machine signed a deal with Eminem’s Shady Records in 2017. In July 2021, he shared a tracklist for God Don’t Make Mistakes featuring Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, T.I., Jill Scott, Benny The Butcher, Westside Gunn, Alchemist, Hit-Boy, Daringer, Bink! and J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, but there’s no confirmation on whether the same songs will be included in the final version.
Kanye West collaborated with Conway The Machine for his Donda album in August 2021, with the Buffalo native spitting a verse on “Keep My Spirit Alive” alongside Westside Gunn.
Let’s not put fat ass Rick Ross on it. Stop messing w this clown.
HIS LAST ALBUM WAS BASURA. THAT WWE IMAGE IS STALE AF RIGHT NOW.
message is delivered well but bars were a bit weak, but expected
This prom night loop is the most annoying thing heard last year
Back in the days Em would always put his Shady records signees on his solo album. Why did he stop? Imagine Revival album with a Conway and Westside Boogie verse on it. A Royce feature and a hook from Gunn. Wouldve made the project better imo.
Somethings off. Either Em don’t rock wit these dudes or it’s something else. Cause them 50 Cent Obie D12 days, Em was saying their names non stop. Hopping on tracks, producing. Even made Obie the intro to Without Me. Called 50 his favorite rapper. These dudesGriselda though…if you were a casual you wouldn’t even know they’re signed to Shady. Them, Boogie, and that dude who starts with a G Marshall distanced himself from them and they’re on his label. Not on his albums, and when he’s taking hiphop in interviews he STILL doesn’t bring them up. I think he thinks they’re trash and Paul/Interscope put them on the label
I was wondering the same… maybe they just didn’t ask Em for beats or features. I remember an interview Em did where he said he didn’t want anything to do with the last slaughterhouse album cause he wanted them to do their thing. I think he got tired of people commenting about him making it pop or whatever. So maybe he’s doing the same with Giselda. Like, I’m here if you need me otherwise just do your thing.
Yeah, you’re right. I think part of it is Em losing money on Slaughterhouse (this part is fine). Nut the Joe went on the air and said Shady Records owed him money to which Em responded, “what money, the album didnt break even.” I think Em likes all the artists on his label but he’s more like, “Ill let you drop when you bring me something good and you get one verse from me if I love one of them joints.” I totally get it but its a shame though. Them d12, obie, 50 joints had that Shady records vibe to it and sounded like a group project. Now its just random.
“what money, the album didnt break even.”
It was Eminem’s dumb ass fault for driving up album costs. Slaughterhouse wanted to keep it grimy, Eminem wanted them to be pop stars.
If conway learned anything in ems career its eithet have his back or say next question and move the convo along.. but he willingly went on vlad who at the time was trying to destroy eminem w jamar. And let vlad bait him.. should of dropped him for beint stupid alone.
This is correct and a good point. Conway seems to drink A LOT and Vlad is smart and probably knew that and used it to his advantage. Its easy to get stuff outta’ rappers when they have alcohol in their system. It surprises me that rappers talk to Vlad at all.
Conway isn’t that good imo. I commend him for coming back and learning to rap with half a mouth, but his bars have always struck me as weak compared to Benny. Benny brings the heat, he’s the only Griselda artist I fuck with.
From King to a God was a meh album.
That’s a shit opinion and highly inaccurate
Conway is great. Fuck outta’ here.
However, he does tend to recycle ideas too much at times and could put in some more personal stuff. He does do that but needs to do it more.
They shelved that album right after the Vlad interview hahaha
Conway’s the illest out of Griselda, imo. Benny’s got the best lines, Gunn puts out the most cohesive albums, but Conway’s the most relistenable.
Eminem is sensitive as fuck. I respect him as an artist and love his earlier material but yeah, dude is REALLY sensitive. Maybe that is why him and Royce get along so well. They are both sensitive.
I don’t take men seriously who get in their feelings over words.
Em should throw this ungrateful fk out of Shady right fkin now. Benny and Boogie are more than enough. This idiot has been more anti-Eminem than the contrary. If you don’t have anything good to say about your boss, the least you can do is not say anything against him purposefully.
Its only entertainment he know he talk shit about ppl to get where he at
Facts ?
Rappers are weird. So it turns out that disrespecting your employer in interviews has repercussions? What a revelation. And DJ Vlad is one of the biggest parasites in hip hop.
Sign with Shady and you will get a shady deal. *conway laugh*
F Conway, Shady don’t need garbage and he’s not even on J. Coles level let alone ye. Millennial Rappers take a back seat, woke generation is over, old school hip hop forever!
TALK TO ‘EM !!!!!!
mistake 1 doing Vlad videos, mistake 2 listening to anything Joe Budden has to say. those 2 things should be part of hip hops standard “don’t”
