Slant Face Killah (SFK) is the fourth studio album by American rapper Conway the Machine. It was released on May 10, 2024, through Drumwork Music Group and Empire Distribution.[1] Originally announced as a B-side record to follow 2023's Won't He Do It, the name was later changed to its current name partly due to label speculation.[_clarification needed_] The album features guest appearances from Stove God Cooks, Larry June, Flee Lord, Method Man, SK Da King, Joey Badass, Key Glock, Rya Maxwell, Tech N9ne, 2 Eleven, Ab-Soul, Jay Worthy, T.F. and Raekwon.
On January 19, 2024, the album's first and lead single "Give & Give" with Cool & Dre was released. The music video was released that same day, which also featured the track "Mutty" with Stove God Cooks.[2]
On February 16, the third single "Vertino" with Joey Badass was released, together with an accompanying music video.[3]
On April 24, Conway revealed the album title, cover art and release date.[4]
"Ten/Rya Interlude" featuring Key Glock was released on May 3, 2024, serving as the album's fourth single.[5]
Slant Face Killah received a mixed review from Gabriel Bras Nevares, stating "For the most part, Slant Face Killah is still a very worthy album in Conway's catalog; it's just in some small but important Griselda details that it falters. When there's so much quality to go through, it makes these crevices look like caverns".[6]
