Conway the Machine at Trees

Hailing from Buffalo’s East Side, rapper Conway the Machine found success as a musician after suffering a near-fatal shooting in 2012. Matching gritty bars with a methodical, menacing delivery, the MC became a significant player in New York’s underground scene, signing a deal with Eminem’s Shady Records in 2017. He issued his debut album, From King to a God, in 2020. Alongside brother and fellow rapper Westside Gunn, the MC founded Griselda Records, which became a component of the late-2010s resurgence of grimy New York rap. His sophomore album, God Don’t Make Mistakes, appeared in early 2022.
