Benny The Butcher - The Plugs I Met (Discussion Thread)

[BK The Great]

That Pissy Work joint right there and these next two are when I got seriously on board. And I think I’m in the minority but I actually like the Pissy Work verse more than the Shower Shoe Lords verse.




^ that opening bar after the new clips on Spurs

Pissy Work is Benny in his rawest form, those joints really put me into his stuff. That made me go back listen to 17 bullets and that My First Brick project.

You heard the project with him and 38 Spesh? I was very late on it. Also I don’t know if you fukk with Eto but I didn’t know he did beats. He produced this first joint.

Full clip of that freestyle from Bars On I-95

Tried to rep. Told me to slow down. I will when I can. I love that they gave Benny an actual ‘97 Hov beat to rap on


Edit: can someone explain the bar at 2:41 about “came early like a Capricorn” ?
I feel like I should get it

Tried to get into this but it's really not for me.

 

[DontEemTry]

If you don't immediately feel like coppin a ski mask and gloves after hearing this shyt then you're dead inside.

Feelin restored.

Me too. I like how he said with Alchemist and Daringer he’ll take beats they want him to use even if they aren’t ones he picks. I’ve always thought a lot of the best emcees were ones that trusted their close producers. That’s dope that Al told Benny the Plug House beat was Rubber Bands & Weight part 2. That’s what I compared it too last week.

Jay is a perfect example of this kind of emcee too. He trusts his guys. Just Blaze and Pharrell each brought PSA and Allure to him respectively and broke down why he should use them, and he trusted their ears.

And I like that Benny said he picks different beats than WSG or Conway. I mean it’s been obvious to me but it’s dope to hear him say it.

I wanna hear him rap over some lush Bink/Ricky type beats though too.

Spoiler

Would love to hear him over Bink

Not available for me ...weird

 

[feelosofer]

Good old fashioned hardcore NY hip-hop. Definitely sensing that Raekwon influence. Some Mobb in there too.

That Black thought verse tho

 

[Trajan]

My nikka kept telling me to give this nikka a chance, two tracks in and I’m :wtfdylan::handrub::mjblessedcry::bishop::wowderas:

It's something for our generation bro



We don't have force Lil Uzi into the rotation because we ran out of Lox and Dipset records




Btw go and listen to Tana Talk 3 and Shot & Stabbed

Also A Friend of Ours

 

[head shots101]

He used that freestyle from i-95 joint on this track

 

[old boy]

Black thought knew he had to step his bars up on a track with Benny. Song is straight

lol easy fam. thought been a problem since benny was a 5th grader. it's actually the other way around and tariq still got him

 

[ThaRealness]

This was good but as of now
it's not as good as tana talk 3 imo.

Tana Talk 3 was outstanding.

This has more highs and lows and some nice surprises. And the production is a pinch better, though less consistent
