The Butcher coming back.

Back in the summer of 2019, fresh off the release of Tana Talk 3Benny the Butcher kept the stove running hot with The Plugs I Met. And now, after dropping projects with his Griselda family (WWCD), Hit-Boy (Burden of Proof), Smoke DZA and Pete Rock (Statue of Limitations), and his BSF crew (The Respected Sopranos), he’s back at it with The Plugs I Met 2.

Unlike the first go around with Alchemist, Daringer, Beat Butcha and the late DJ Shay handling the beats, Plugs 2 is fully laced by Harry Fraud.

“I recorded both Burden Of Proof and The Plugs I Met 2 at the same time, so it’s the same headspace; but a different energy,” Benny says. “I recorded Burden Of Proof in Cali with Hit-Boy and The Plugs I Met 2 in Brooklyn with Harry and you can hear that influence.”

Locked in at nine tracks, led by “Thanksgiving,” the project comes equipped with features from Fat Joe, Jim Jones, 2 Chainz, French Montana, Rick Hyde, and the late Chinx.

  1. “When Tony Met Sosa”
  2. “Overall” ft. Chinx
  3. “Plug Talk” ft. 2 Chainz
  4. “Live by It”
  5. “Talkin’ Back” ft. Fat Joe
  6. “No Instructions”
  7. “Longevity” ft. French Montana & Jim Jones
  8. “Survivor’s Remorse” ft. Rick Hyde
  9. “Thanksgiving”
