Conway the Machine is Buffalo, New York’s pride and joy. He was raised on the gritty streets of the east side of Buffalo. At age 23, he spent some time in jail, which motivated him even more to focus on music. His third studio album Won’t He Do It gets introspective and doesn’t leave the grittiness of the streets behind. He departed the Buffalo’s Griselda crew in 2022 to focus on his own imprint and label, Drumwork.
Last night, was the official album release of Won’t He Do It happened at Ludlow House. Drinks with song title names off the new album were served in cups with the album cover title on it. In the entryway there was a giant ice sculpture with Won’t He Do It engraved in it. Conway strolled in around 11 PM surrounded by a fury of people, entourage, and photogs. The music dominated the night with a in house DJ announcing Conway’s arrival. It was a good mix of hip hop with Conway the Machine’s new tunes spinning around midnight.
Won’t He Do It features appearances from his brother Westside Gunn, cousin Benny The Butcher, Fabolous, Juicy J, Dave East, Ransom, Sauce Walka, and Conway’s Drumwork Music Group new artists Jae Skeese and 7xvethegenius and production from Daringer, Justice League, Khrysis, and Juicy J among others.
