Review: Griselda Records' own Benny The Butcher is a contemporary hip hop mainstay who has seen plenty of commercial success and critical acclaim. His The Plugs I Met features collaborations with Pusha T, Jadakiss, Conway, RJ Payne, Alchemist and Daringer and built on early success with a sounds that shows he is the embodiment of now. This specially extended version features some previously unreleased instrumentals, while the originals are beautiful soul drenched affairs with a subtle gospel feel and deep cut production. The guests all come through but don't detract from Benny The Butcher's singular sound.

Review: OT The Real and AraabMuzik team to great effect here on Zombie, a gripping listen and fresh take on hip hop that is also a great indicator of their collaborative prowess. The album pulsates with raw energy, blending OT The Real's lyrical finesse with AraabMuzik's signature production mastery, from start to finish. There are all sorts of haunting melodies and hard-hitting beats that captivate with dark and hypnotic atmospheres always luring you in further. As two prominent figures in the hip-hop scene, OT The Real and AraabMuzik deliver a relentless sonic assault that leaves a lasting impression here and shows they likely have plenty more to come.
