Conway The Machine To Drop “God Don’t Make Mistakes” album next month.
Conway The Machine has been teasing his Shady Records’ debut album “God Don’t Make Mistakes” for some time now and today he finally made an official announcement. The Buffalo native has dropped a trailer for the long-awaited album and revealed that it will release next month on February 25th. This album will feature the previously released single “Piano Love” which was produced by The Alchemist.
Previously, Conway revealed that the album will feature guest appearances from Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, as well as his fellow Griselda rappers Westside Gunn and Benny the Butcher.
The album will mark Conway’s departure from the Eminem helmed label, and he recently said that he’s thankful to Eminem and co for the time at the label. “There is no issues with Shady Records at all,” he said. “I’m just thankful man, I’m blessed. I appreciate everybody over there at Shady Records. From the top on down, Eminem, Paul, Tracy, Mike H… the whole building. I’ve never had an issue and I have no issues now. If that’s where my journey in life takes me to doing more business with Shady then I’m with that too. After this album, my contractual obligations will be fulfilled and whatever comes after that I’m gonna accept it and be thankful.”
On Friday, the Griselda co-founder spit some freestyle verses over Kanye West’s “Jail” instrumental (January 21) “Would you love me if you knew the old me?” The Drumwork founder 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.” Conway felt horrible after calling Eminem fans “nerds and stans” in a 2019 VladTV interview.
“Announcing the release date of God Don’t Make Mistakes with my new single ‘John Woo Flick,’ it’s perfect timing,” states Conway The Machine. “Finally, my fans get to hear the music I put my heart and soul into.”
Conway released “Piano Love” as the lead song from God Don’t Make Mistakes last year. He also contributed tracks to DMX’s postmortem Exodus, Kanye West’s Grammy-nominated Donda, and the soundtrack to The Harder They Fall.
The new album will follow up his last year’s projects “La Maquina” album, and “If It Bleeds It Can Be Killed”, a joint effort with Big Ghost.
Nevertheless, Eminem’s Shady Records recruited Atlanta rapper Grip to its roster last summer.
Shady president Paul Rosenberg described Grip as “the sort of artist that draws you into his universe and communicates himself through a complete composed body of work” while announcing the announcement in July.
Rosenberg added in his statement: “If true album artists in this era are a rare breed, then Grip is a unicorn! We’re excited for him to join the Shady Records family.”
