Conway The Machine unleashes new album “La Maquina”

Today, Conway The Machine is deep in his bag with his latest album La Maquina and it most certainly has a high replay value. The new project solo project serves as the follow up to his 2020 solo studio album From King to a God.

The Buffalo rapper has recently spoke with DJ First Class where he was asked did he feel like he was slept on as a lyricist. Here is what Griselda’s frontman replied: “Yes and no. No because I feel like the people that matter to me and that I f**k with and respect as icons and legends in this s**t……the entire culture of Hip Hop respect and f**k with me. Ni**as like Busta Rhymes, Raekwon, Ghostface, Method Man, Prodigy (R.I.P.), Pete Rock, DJ Premier, Eminem, guys like that. They give me my flowers. I do not really need flowers from anybody else. Other than that, in the public eye, a lot of people overlook me and I really feel like that so yes I agree.”

La Maquina is laced with a total of 11 tracks with the guest appearances from 2 Chainz, J.I.D., Ludacris, Benny The Butcher, Westside Gunn, Jae Skeese, ElCamino and 7xvethegenius. You can bump the new record below:

WATCH: Nas beats Royce 5’9″ to win Best Rap Album at Grammys 2021

Hip-hop’s legendary lyricist Nas finally won his first ever Grammy last night after 13 nominations across more than two decades. The 47-year-old king of the New York City, won Best Rap Album for his 13th effort, titled “King’s Disease.”

Nas’ album bested “The Allegory” by Royce da 5′9”, Alfredo” by Freddie Gibbs & The Alchemist, “Black Habits” by D Smoke and “A Written Testimony” by Jay Electronica.

In an interview with British music magazine NME in November 2020, Nas revealed that he had attempted to create a record similar to James Brown’s 1968 classic “Say It Loud ― I’m Black and I’m Proud” and said it was necessary for Black artists to make similar anthems because of “the foot on our necks.”

Dr. Dre’s “The Chronic” cassette reissue coming for Death Row Records 30th anniversary

Dr. Dre’s “The Chronic,” Snoop Doggy Dogg’s “Doggystyle,” Tupac’s “All Eyez On Me” (2x tape set) and “The Don Killuminati (7 Day Theory)” – all those 4 classic hip-hop albums will be reissued on cassette on April 20 to celebrate Death Row Record’s 30th year anniversary.

“Death Row Records beams in hip-hop history as much more than music label. Death Row was a movement, hip-hop revolution, factory for greatness, and one of the first exemplifications of black power within the business of rap.”

“During a time when hip-hop’s market share of multi-platinum plaques was a small minority, Death Row liberated and empowered some of our greatest creatives, leveling another lopsided American playing field. Without Death Row, we would never hear the aqua-flow of Snoop Dogg or the genius of Eminem. We would be deprived of Cali’s finest production – from Dr. Dre to DJ Pooh – and our music palettes would be lesser for having never heard The Don Killuminati: 7 Day Theory or either of the Chronic albums.”

“If Death Row had never been, hip-hop would have never experienced the unforgettable era of West Coast dominance.” – reads the statement issued by the record label.

New Freestyle: Westside Boogie – “Whoopty”

“Hundred percent of me went to the Lord, when momma was poor and I never wanted a sip.. Hate on the front of my lip, how I’m gon’ stomach this s**t, this hunger a son of a b**ch. Feel like you love to trigger me. Can’t forget how to touch an enemy.” raps Boogie.
