It’s a celebration for Benny the Butcher in New York’s Def Jam offices. I got to speak with the Griselda rapper in late December, the same day that the Buffalo Mc and members of his team came down for a Def Jam-sponsored event ahead of his debut album with the label, Everybody Can’t Go, which was released last week. He had also just dropped “Big Dawg,” where he went toe-to-toe with a lyrically pristine Lil Wayne. For Benny, the celebration may have represented more for him than...

Newark battle rapper Tsu Surf was sentenced to a mandatory five years in prison after previously pleading guilty to Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (Rico) conspiracy charges.
The rapper, born Rahjon Cox, faced up to 30 years in prison as part of charges connected to his membership in the Rollin’ 60s Neighborhood Crips street gang.
However, by pleading guilty to conspiracy and to possession of firearms and ammunition by a convicted felon — and thus avoiding a trial and potentially harsher sentence — a U.S. district judge sentenced Cox to five years in federal prison,...

Happy birthday, Nas! On Thursday, September 14th, the pioneering rapper turned 50 years old, and he’s marking the occasion with the release of his 17th studio album, Magic 3. Stream the record below.
Arriving just under eight weeks after Nas’ previous album, Magic 2, Magic 3 is the final volume in an album-trilogy collaboration between the “New York State of Mind” rapper and producer Hit-Boy. The duo first teamed up for 2020’s King’s Disease, and have since collaborated on four additional albums, including the first two entries in the Magic series. The first Magic record dropped in 2021.
Spanning 15 tracks, the new Magic 3 is lush with elements indicative of the duo’s partnership, as well as highlights, like the track “Never Die,” which features Lil Wayne. Speaking about working with Hit-Boy in an interview with Rap Life Radio’s Ebro Darden, Nas described the producer as “[his] Quincy [Jones].” Magic 3 is out via Mass Appeal Records,...

Mick Jenkins has shared “Guapanese,” the latest preview of his upcoming album, The Patience. Watch the visualizer for it below.
Over a piano-based instrumental co-produced by Stoic and Kulture, Jenkins challenges money-obsessed culture and questions the priorities of others. “All these n***** ever really talk about is money,” he spits. “I think all these n***** got to talk about is money/ His man’s locked up, he can’t bond him out, it’s funny.”
Along with “Guapanese,” Jenkins has shared the tracklist for The Patience, which features Benny the Butcher (“Sitting Ducks”), Freddie Gibbs (“Show & Tell”), Vic Mensa (“Farm to table”), and Jid (lead single “Smoke Break-Dance”). See it below.
In a statement, Jenkins explained that he moved away from his typical concept-driven approach while recording the album. “A lot of these new songs were made when I stopped focusing on a concept and just wrote spontaneously to the beat,...

Kardinal Offishall still remembers a time when nobody wanted to hire him. And he means nobody.
“Everybody turned me down: Gap, Foot Locker,” the Toronto-born rapper and music executive tells Et Canada. “The only thing I never applied for was McDonald’s, and that’s because there’s no way I was going to work at McDonald’s. But everybody fronted on me, so you know, it was music or bust.”
Thankfully, the music thing turned out alright. Today, Offishall is a Canadian hip hop god, gifting us some of the nation’s most groundbreaking and unimpeachable hits, from the Rascalz’s 1998 classic “Northern Touch” (which celebrates its 25th anniversary this year) to 2008’s “Dangerous” with Akon, which made him the first Canuck rapper to land on the Billboard Top 100 chart.

In Chicago, many kids are exposed to two sides of the same coin. There are the joyful traditions, experiences, and summertime fun that define Black childhood in the city. And then there’s “Chiraq,” where G Herbo, born Herbert Wright, saw his first casualty of gun violence when he was just eight years old. It’s where kids and teenagers, already burdened by poverty, get thrust into adulthood after seeing their childhood peers die.

On his introductory 2007 mixtape, The French Revolution Vol. 1, he even has a song whose guest feature is credited to Martin Luther King, Jr. If he does nothing else, French Montana brings people together, even if that social butterfly aspect of his persona sometimes hampers the potency of his major-label releases.

Benny the Butcher has joined forces with J. Cole for his latest single, “Johnny P’s Caddy.” The reflective track, produced by The Alchemist, comes off the Buffalo, N.Y. rapper’s upcoming album Tana Talk 4, set for release later this year.
“Any rapper will tell you when you’re working with someone like Cole, it’s like a match of wits,” Benny said of the collaboration in a statement. “You gotta go crazy, because you know he is. Iron sharpens iron. You want it to be an environment where...

Think of Snoop Dogg’s The Algorithm as good housekeeping. Even legendary brands like Def Jam occasionally need revitalization. The label may be decades removed from its late Nineties renaissance when giants like Jay-Z, Dmx, and Ja Rule ruled the universe. But when the Doggfather announced in June that he was onboard as an executive creative and strategic consultant, it reminded folks that hey, Def Jam still exists. It’s more than just a trademark at the bottom of a Justin Bieber album.

In 2019, Joey and Persephone, both avid Travis Scott fans, traveled from their home in Fresno to Las Vegas in the hopes of catching the star performing at the Day N Vegas festival. Unfortunately for them, Scott, who is known for his frenzied, full-throttle live shows, hurt his knee while playing at Rolling Loud that year. He didn’t recover in time for Day N Vegas, and he had to pull out of the event.
Joey, 29, and Persephone, 28, returned to the festival this year again in the hopes of catching Scott.

Right at the center of Midtown Manhattan, next to the MoMa, sits Ocean Prime steakhouse. It’s an expensive restaurant, perfect for out-of-town businessmen and rich suburban families. I’m here with the Flint rapper Bfb Da Packman, who tells me that it’s his favorite place to eat. He even named a song after it, the Coi Leray-assisted “Ocean Prime,” from Packman’s very good album Fat Niggas Need Love Too, released in June. “Order whatever you want, bro. We chilling,” he assures me, as I worry about...

The rapper Belly was born in the Palestinian West Bank and moved to Ottawa as a kid. While he’s a big-ticket rapper by today’s standards — Belly’s list of collaborations includes stars like The Weeknd and Nas — music was the last thing on his mind as a teenager. A familiar rap origin story, he and his friends in Ottawa used to hustle to make ends meet. It might explain the rapper’s natural affinity for street-level entrepreneurs like Jay-Z, whom he now counts as one of his personal friends and mentors.

A new posthumous Dmx song, “Hood Blues,” has arrived featuring Westside Gunn, Benny the Butcher, and Conway the Machine of the Buffalo rap group Griselda. The track will appear on Dmx’s upcoming posthumous album, Exodus, out Friday, May 28th.
“Hood Blues” was co-produced by Avenue Beatz and Dmx’s frequent collaborator over the years, Swizz Beatz, who crafted a sparse but sinister beat laced with a lurking flute loop and Dmx’s own menacing growl. All three Griselda rappers deliver fittingly ruthless verses while Dmx closes out the song...

Lana Del Rey, Chemtrails Over the Country Club
Though Del Rey’s overall project has remained remarkably consistent throughout her career, her growing disillusionment with fame, and with this country’s prevailing iconography of wealth and success, has loomed large as the national mood has grown more dire. Her observations are somber now, her melancholy placed against a more substantial backdrop. Kids dance the Louisiana two-step in a forgotten bar; a prolonged breakup meets its bitter end; people get high and make out in a parking lot while “the whole world is crazy.

Benny the Butcher has survivor’s remorse. When you make it out of your East Buffalo hood despite facing the same odds that brought others down, it inevitably comes with a twinge of guilt. The eighth track on his new EP The Plugs I Met 2, aptly titled “Survivor’s Remorse,” says as much. He raps: “This supposed to be success / so why the fuck do I feel stressed out and guilty?” Born Jeremie Pennick, Benny has seen his fair share of tragedy. His brother, Machine Gun Blak, was a big-time hustler...

At 36, Buffalo rapper Benny the Butcher is a sort of old head in the genre, where artists with wild energy and disparate stories break young. Benny’s been working at it since the mid-Aughts, but didn’t manage to cut through the noise nationally until his 2018 mixtape Tana Talk 3. He’s also a street veteran, narrowly making it out of a lifestyle that usually ends in premature death or incarceration. His own prison bids over the years likely stunted his rap success, but he’s finally rolling in legal dough as a member of Griselda,...

French Montana pays tribute to New York City and one of its fallen hip-hop icons, Pop Smoke, on his new single “Double G.” The track features a posthumous verse from the late Brooklyn rapper, who also appears alongside French Montana in the “Double G” music video.
“Pop was a brother to me,” French Montana said in a statement. “We developed a friendship well before he became a household name and connected through the streets of NY music and our talents. Today, I’m honored to continue to uphold his legacy...

The Buffalo, New York rapper Benny the Butcher released a celebratory video for “Legend” on Thursday. The clip precedes Burden of Proof, a new album that arrives Friday with production from Hit-Boy and features from Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, and Queen Naija.
Burden of Proof represents a meeting of two prolific minds: Benny often shoots out two or three projects a year — this is his second of 2020, following Benny the Butcher & DJ Drama Present: The Respected Sopranos — while Hit-Boy oversaw all of Nas’ King’s Disease and eight songs on...

Buffalo rapper Conway the Machine and Method Man have released a new video for their track, “Lemon,” which will appear on Conway’s upcoming album, From King to a God, out September 11th via Griselda Records/Drumwork/Empire.
Directed by Langston Sessoms, the “Lemon” clip is the perfect no-frills visual to accompany the track, placing emphasis on Conway and Method Man’s verses. As Conway told Complex of the clip, “I just wanted to give the streets and my diehard fans that nostalgic grimy shit they love me for. Meth...

When Westside Gunn released Flygod Is An Awesome God 2 in July, the song “Lil Cease” served as an impressive showcase for Armani Caesar, the first woman to join Griselda Records. Caesar’s bluster was casual but cutting, while her tone and cadence wouldn’t have been out of place on a single from 1995.
Which is to say it makes perfect sense that she connected with the boom bap purist DJ Premier on her new song “Simply Done.” He concocted a typically thunking beat — heavy-handed keys, shrieking strings, and plenty of vinyl scratches.
