Listen: Benny The Butcher’s Def Jam Debut Album “Everybody Can’t Go”
Benny The Butcher, the Grammy-Nominated and Emmy-Award-winning member of Buffalo’s acclaimed Griselda collective, proudly presents his highly-anticipated new album, EVERYBODY CAN’T GO, out now via Def Jam Recordings.
After setting off his Def Jam era with “Big Dog” featuring Lil Wayne, which has already amassed 3.2 million Spotify streams and counting, Benny The Butcher releases EVERYBODY CAN’T GO consisting of 12 powerhouse tracks.
These tracks tell real and raw stories, sharing hard-earned wisdom, and offering up one trunk-rattling banger after another starting with the opener “Jermanie’s Graduation” which hinges on a glassy piano melody and sparse orchestration.
Benny The Butcher takes it back to the beginning and paints a vivid picture of his come-up, “I lived with a mother who struggled through addiction. I know every side to drug abuse.” On “Pillow Talk & Slander,” string loops swoon beneath a rap masterclass by Benny The Butcher, Jadakiss, and Babyface Ray.
Then, there’s the raucous “Griselda Express” featuring Westside Gunn, Conway The Machine, and Rick Hyde. This knockout posse cut sees this elite cohort go and “turn the board room to Satriale’s.” The ride concludes with the introspective “Big Tymers” featuring Peezy, as Benny takes stock of how far he’s come over a tense beat and ominous production as he proclaims, “I got it out the mud how you gonna tell me to be humble?”
Benny set off his Def Jam era with “Big Dog” featuring Lil Wayne. “Big Dog” has already amassed 3.2 million Spotify streams and counting, in addition to 2.5 million YouTube views on the music video.
