Hip-Hop Listening Club Album of the Week #247: Benny - Butcher On Steroids

Posted: 20 Apr 2018 06:26 AM PDT

Welcome to HHH Listening Club!

Today we'll be listening to Butcher On Steroids by Benny

Background:

As I got my copy of the Butcher On Steroids record in this week, I thought it'd be nice to discuss this album in the listening club. I don't have time to write a lot, so I just lifted something from hnhh:

Every time Griselda Records comes through with a new release, you know you're going to be getting two things in spades. Unapologetic, street lyricism, and gritty, raw production permeate each release from the Buffalo collective, from Conway's recent Reject On Steroids to Westside Gunn's Hitler Wears Hermes series, to Benny's brand new mixtape Butcher On Steroids. Boasting production from Daringer, Green Lantern, and more, Butcher On Steroids makes it clear from the jump that Benny will be continuing to deliver that hardcore Griselda shit. If you aren't into the Griselda sound, you'll probably be better off avoiding Butcher On Steroids. But if you're buying what Westside Gunn, Conway, and Benny have been selling, this project will make an enjoyable listen from front to back, especially if you're in the market for authentic street rap.

While the aesthetic surrounding Benny might be a bit less interesting than that of Westside Gunn or Conway, he is slowly becoming my favourite out of the collective when it comes to straight rapping. This project is a great listen, with some very vivid street bars on some nice 'Griselda' beats, as well as a few classic beats.

Cardi B's version for reference

for those not familiar with RaRa, he's the one who produced Meek Mill's "On The Regular" and has released a ton of his own music as well. Some of my favorites: fwm, for the money ft. TI, ball
