Conway the Machine feat. Benny the Butcher – “Tito’s Back” (Ctrl)
Benny and Conway. The Butcher and The Machine. As their long-standing collaborator Pusha T famously said, “if you know, you know.” For those who don’t know, Benny and Conway are boom-bap rap traditionalists who both proudly hail from Buffalo, New York. “I’m from a cold city, Westsides and Conways, ain’t no Biggies,” raps Benny on the intro of 2018’s critically acclaimed Tana Talk 3. “Westsides” refers to Westside Gunn, Conway’s brother and the third founding member of their Griselda Records imprint. In the massive shadow of New York City, Griselda’s prolific output and strong collabs with major MCs have put some respect on the name of their long-overlooked hood. The sophisticated reciprocation of energy in Conway and Benny’s performance of “Tito’s Back” ratchets up and up as the piano sample cycles along. Like only veteran partners can, both gleam in the other’s presence.
