Benny The Butcher Drops Album Closer “Legend”

It’s easy to feel like Benny The Butcher has something to prove, as evidenced by his upcoming album Burden Of Proof, which arrives in full tomorrow. Yet those who have been keeping track of the Griselda run for the past few years can attest to one simple truth — Benny The Butcher is easily one of the best lyricists in the game right now, and that’s hard to dispute. Perhaps that’s why he’s opted to close out his album with “Legend,” produced by Hit-Boy, a statement unto itself.

Off the bat, it’s clear that Benny intends on letting his bars make a statement. “Gave my life to the game, had my mama concerned, it made her calm when she saw what I got in return,” he begins, over Hit-Boy’s soulful, minimalist production. “Broke my flow down, they still can’t describe it in words / And all the work they say they put in, I gotta confirm.” And in what might be the most surprising turn, Benny actually drops four verses on this one — truly shocking, considering that two-verse songs have become the new normal.

It’s one of the many reasons Benny is so important to the game right now; not only does he preserve the glory days of the culture, but he does so while putting his own, decidedly modern take on that golden era classic sound. Look for Burden Of Proof to hit streaming services at midnight, and be sure to support The Butcher accordingly. 

QUOTABLE LYRICS

Yo, fifty thousand in the drawer, at the W with some bitches
And every time I score, it’s a W for the villains
I’m somewhere in the hood, elbow rubbin’ with all the dealers
Sayin’, “Because of you, we ain’t been this comfortable in a minute’

Honk Magazine Filter

Singer-songwriter Kieran James delivers a devastating new single with “Part of the Grind,” a track to tackle the tangled emotions behind loss and memory. A love letter penned to a close friend who faced severe cognitive decline, the song’s emotional heft feels universal yet heartbreakingly personal.

Set to delicate instrumentation and achingly sung vocals, “Part of the Grind” is both a lament and an honoring, a means of remembering while addressing the unavoidable cost of time and illness. His voice floats, leaving room for silence and the long pauses that so often come with grief. But in that silence, there is warmth as well, a refusal to let memory be totally extinguished.

Resilience is also implied in the song’s title, a reminder that even in heartbreak, life goes on and holding the memory of someone stays with the rhythm of everyday living. it’s an anthem for anyone who has ever looked on witnessing decline, mixed sorrow with love.

In Kieran James’s “Part of the Grind,” we hear music as well as go behind it. He gives us room feel, to mourn, and to honor. In the process, he turns private pain into something achingly universal, a song for everyone who has either loved or lost.
