Aint gonna front I missed out on this project im gonna have to check it out.

You think it had as much character as Gibbs shyt with Alc?
Production wise most definitely although I’ll admit I’m not a huge Alfredo fan, it was good but I prefer Gibbs/Madlib


I just don’t believe Benny can fukk with Gibbs versatility which is a big reason why I’ll always check for Gibbs regardless of his antics. TT4 was on the same level as Alfredo though I listen to TT4 more

Its because all he talks about is pushing drugs and being a street dude, which, ALOT of MCs do, but he doesn't do it with any sort of originality.

Going back to my previous post about how Gibbs made it work for him...

Gibbs made it work because he is a wordsmith who really mastered the MC game and also ... can spit deep lyrics / other shyt about just drugs, and make it comical or even just crazy out of perspective ... just making up shyt that sounds crazy.

Benny aint got that ... all he has is basic drug raps with just decent MC skills which for some reason everyone in the US is gassing up like hes the new Jay Z but those same heads wont turn out to his show ... cos they dont even believe that shyt.

Benny needs to relax and branch out into some more creative shyt. Even his project with Hitboy was mid .... it jus sounded like outdated 06 hip hop rather than rejuvinated version of that like what alc or madlib are doing.
U doing too much Benny is gucci

It’s only so far a 40 year old nikka with mutton chops can go making East Coast hustler music

My thing is.. You have decided in life that you want to be a rap artist. I am absolutely not bound to Benny the Butcher…Cuz if I’m working for my money and I wanna spend that 250 at a Rex Life Raj concert, that’s what ima do…This is supposed to be an art form any fukkin way..

dont be telling me you a real hip hop nikka bringing the culture back then tell me about what you can put in your fukking bank account directly from my wallet..What about the soundman/engineer, the nikka that wipe down the boards after y’all finish recording? You should rap all day and night so they keep a job.

Go talk to Marshall or whoever you signed to about your bank account, not me.

I’m a Griselda fan but Benny came left like a mf with that. It’s like he’s blaming fans.

I agree with him...if he goes the other route he will be labeled a sell out..the other side is "keep it real...keeping it hip hop"

I’ll always find funny how nikkas on here claim they don’t fukk with Griselda but never miss a thread to try to shyt on them :mjlol:

Benny need to grab Spesh and drop that Stabbed & Shot 2 already :francis:

But in the meantime



:blessed:

Benny is right in a sense but also the complaint may be coming from a more personal place(lack of ticket sales, etc). The internet does and will hype some shyt up through tweets or posts but not tangibly support it.

That said, with just coming out the pandemic and money being tight, many ppl are probably being a lot more choosy with what concerts they go to.
