Last month Benny The Butcher made it to Poland for the first time as part of his world tour Thank God I Made It Tour. After the show we managed to catch up with him and his manager and they invited us to a studio session at producer Maro Music's studio. A few hours later, shortly after 6AM, after an all-nighter consisting of writing & recording a new song with Heem, Benny found time to talk to us in front of a camera. 

The Griselda respresentant told us about bringing his day-one's on tour, explained what he stands for in his music and why people connect to it so much, talked about "Burden of Proof" with Hit-Boy 3 years after its release, and remembered coming up on the mixtape scene in the 2000's. The Buffalo MC also spoke on his favorite part of working with J. Cole on "Johnny P's Caddy", shared personal stories about the house that we see on the back cover of "Tana Talk 4", and revealed what Diddy told him about their collab "10 More Commandments", which is a follow up to The Notorious B.I.G.'s "10 Crack Commandments". 

Lastly, Benny talked about working with DMX for their song "Hood Blues", explained the importance of DJ Shay, his love for The Sopranos and what he took from the classic TV show, and clarified the meaning of his next album title "Everybody Can't Go".
