Benny the Butcher "Butcher on Steriods"
FORMAT | LP
Long sought-after Benny the Butcher album nally available in a wide-release Black vinyl pressing!
The underground hip-hop collective Griselda has long established itself as a go-to
source for the classic hardcore sound of 90s hip-hop artists like Mobb Deep and
Raekwon, and unrelentingly gritty boom-bap production, and Benny The Butcher is
one of the group's most proficient contributors. Now signed to Def Jam, Benny
began leaving his mark on the underground as far back as 2004 and has made his
incomparable, street-savvy presence known on tracks by the likes of Ghostface
Killah, Paul Wall, Jim Jones, and a slew of other top-tier rappers. His 2017 mixtape
Butcher On Steroids is just one example of Benny's raw power and lyrical deftness.
Across 12 tracks, the Butcher delivers the kind of authentic street flow that has come
to define the Buffalo, NY rap scene, backed up by guest appearances from his
Griselda brethren ElCamino and Conway, atop a bed of stark and intense beats
courtesy of guest producers DJ Green Lantern, Daringer, IceRocks, and more.
