It’s Butcher season and with the Summer ’24 coming to a close, Benny and his Black Soprano Family are out to make the most out of the waning days of August and give everyone a little something to bump for those final summer day cookouts.
Dropping off some new visuals to “Knightfall,” Buffalo Benny pulls out his latest Tesla toy before hopping in his man’s convertible and peeling off into the night to collect them bags. Benny must be saving his Tesla mileage for those winter months.
Back in the South, B.G. keeps on churning out some more post-prison work and in his Jucee Froot assisted clip to “Duck Off,” B and Jucee take to a parking garage to bust some moves and shine some ice and show what a happy couple like to do after parking their car and going shopping for some groceries. Relationship goals.
Check out the rest of today’s drops including work from Marques Houston, BTB Dezz and Diany Dior, and more.

Griselda is one of the most beloved and revered rap groups of this generation, but the Buffalo trio haven’t been rocking together for quite some time, allegedly. Rumors have it that Conway The Machine, Benny The Butcher and Westside Gunn aren’t on the best of terms as of late.
Taking a minute to address the rumors about friction within the group (namely Conway and Westside) on Math Hoffa’s My Expert Opinion, Benny The Butcher clarifies that he doesn’t know about any animosity between his family members as he’s keeps in touch with both of them and nothing’s ever come up about any kind of hostility towards one another.

“To be honest with you, I don’t know what it’s about. Cause I’m in the loop with both of them n*ggas, and whenever that was going on, I know they was talking. Same thing, I call, they check in with each other. But this is what I wanna say: that’s to the world. Remind you that these are my cousins. That ain’t the first time, it won’t be the last.”
Continuing to point out that there isn’t a rift between Conway and Westside, Benny reminds people that the two men were just overseas together for their visuals to “Quarters” for which Benny wasn’t even a part of.
“You see them n*ggas together in Paris — I wasn’t there! I’m like, ‘The f*ck you n*ggas ain’t call me for?’ But trust me, it’s never nothing where n*ggas ain’t doing business, n*ggas ain’t getting money, n*ggas ain’t at each other crib. It could never be like that.”
Well, that’s good to know.
While we’re glad to hear from Benny that Conway and Westside are still on good terms, we’re still waiting on a new Griselda project that always seems to get teased whenever they collaborate on each other’s solo projects, but never seems to come to fruition. Hopefully for the sake of the culture these three men can carve out some time and get in the lab to cook up some product that’ll get heads nodding and necks cracking as the rap game is in need of some new potent work out of the streets of Buffalo, New York.
Check out Benny’s interview below in which he talks about Griselda and the shadiness of the rap business, and let us know your thoughts on the situation in the comments section.

Benny The Butcher proved that his street tales and aggressive bars are right at home over polished production just as they are over hard drums and dusty loops, as proven on Burden of Proof. The Buffalo star will once again recreate that magic alongside Hit-Boy after he announced the upcoming Everybody Can’t Go album on social media.
Benny The Butcher shared an image of himself on the red carpet at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards looking sharp as expected. The Black Soprano Family honcho didn’t give a ton of details but it’s clear that fans need to get prepared for the anticipated collaboration.

Sometimes the experience of the journey is a better feeling than reaching the destination. You won’t ever kno unless u make it there…but remember ‘EVERYBODY CAN’T GO’ The Album produced by @hitboy…Loading
Benny The Bucher and Hit-Boy linked in 2020 for the acclaimed Burden of Proof project and it was a welcome departure from the darker production of Daringer, Beat Butcha, and The Alchemist. Flexing his signature confidence and songwriting ability, Benny shined over the lush beats of Hit-Boy in an unexpected fashion.
We can only hope that the pair will improve on the solid formula of three years ago.
