The Butcher in the building!

Buffalo native Benny The Butcher kicked down the Power 106 studios door with his return to the L.A. Leakers Freestyle series to drop off his solo debut with the 137th installment of the coveted LIFTOFF segment.

With his forthcoming album 'Tana Talk 4' expected to drop this week, Benny wasted no time unleashing signature bars, spitting for nearly three minutes, "This time around this street sh*t gon' get some label support / Thankful for legends who paved the way but ain't get awards, 'cuz every hustler at the table, done took some game form New York."

Russ Effortlessly Drops Bars Over OutKast's "Aquemini" Instrumental In L.A. Leakers Freestyle 125

2022-01-12T02:55:54.977Z

Coming through lock, loaded, and fully activated, Russ popped in to the LIFTOFF with the L.A. Leakers for his inaugural freestyle appearance with the 125th installment of the Justin Credible and DJ Sourmilk series.

Wasting no time to come through swinging, before Russ opens his freestyle entry, the Jersey native taunts, “Come on, y’all are scared to rap!” Effortlessly sliding over legendary hip-hop group OutKast’s smooth and infectious “Amariqi” instrumental, Russ hit with bars quickly nodding to the holiday season, Beyonce’s mom, and of course he took time to boast on his skill.

During the freestyle, Russ spits:
“I’m the type that companies would give a five to / I’m not the type that women want to say goodbye to / But I’m about to fly to Dubai to do White you, thought I’m talking drugs, it’s a club with a sky view / After parties of arena shows, the expectations I exceeded those / I made the industry collapse like the Lehman bros, it’s because my mother birthed a legend like Tina Knowles”

Russ delivered classic energy and etched himself into your Top 5!

Arrested Development Rapper Speech Helps Prisoners Through Music in New Documentary '16 Bars'

2020-02-12T23:51:34.494Z

16 Bars is an intimate look at the lives of four inmates at the city jail in Richmond, Virginia, who are a part of a unique rehabilitation effort that involves writing and recording original music. The film follows their personal and artistic development as they produce an album with a Grammy-winning recording artist, Todd ‘Speech’ Thomas, from the iconic activist hip-hop group Arrested Development. As the creative process unfurls and a chance at freedom draws near, each of these men must unearth painful elements of their pasts, which hold the key to a new chapter in their lives.

The story is set in Richmond Virginia, the former seat of the confederacy, where the legacy of systemic racism, a spiraling opioid crisis, generational poverty, and a lack of mental health services have entrapped many of its citizens in a cycle of incarceration— which makes the city itself a unique case study for rising recidivism rates in the U.S. at large.

With the U.S. locking up more of its citizens per capita than any other nation on the planet, the music of the film serves as rare testimony to the raw and messy truth behind the criminal justice system’s revolving door.
