Benny wanna kill the game. Five years later we can say that he practically made it, after a lot of struggles. Here, he was still very far from emerging from the underground scene: after the decent tape "Benny Best Ever" two years earlier, the Buffalo rapper returns to the attack with another trap tape. The production is generic for most of the listening, with dark and jazzy trap rhythms, while Benny maintains braggadocio and gangsta lyrics, spitting with an excellent overwhelming flow and bringing a lot of energy in this effort, which in the end still doesn't allow him to launch towards the top of hip hop, but it brings him a little closer to more congenial beats to him — the midtempo jazzy signed Daringer — and to the rapping style that allowed him to quickly become one of the most appreciated performers in the East Coast gangsta rap scene. 6/10.
