Everybody Can't Go (LP, 2024)

• B.E.N.N.Y.'s Diluted Effort

  3 out of 5 stars

  This is another typical B.E.N.N.Y. album, but it's got some flaws: Firstly, I reckon they should've wrapped it up at "Griselda Express" (without Rick Hyde), proving that Griselda really needs samples to create timeless tracks. There's only one "Who Made The Sunshine," and this ain't it, even with the Prodigy-ALC collab on "Big Dog," which, honestly, would've been better without Lil' Wayne. Same goes for Snoop on "Back Again" ... Snoop's got a younger cousin (Boldy James) who'd have fit better and needed the exposure more than the retired rapper turned A&R. The standout features on "Everybody Can't Go" are Stove and West, on an album packed with more guests than I anticipated for a project that claims uniqueness. B.E.N.N.Y. is still stuck in his one-trick biographical style, but with such a vast discography, "Everybody Can't Go" feels like another diluted major label effort from The Butcher. "Burden of Proof" never got a second play from me, and I doubt this one will either. B.E.N.N.Y. might wanna leave the Hit-Boy beats to Nas, 'cause I'd rather listen to Tana Talk's packed with ALC production than this album where the best moments have B.E.N.N.Y. working with ALC.

  Another typical B.E.N.N.Y. album, but it's got some flaws: First off, this tape should've wrapped up at "Griselda Express" (without Rick Hyde), proving just how crucial samples are for Griselda to create timeless tracks. There's only one "Who Made The Sunshine," and this ain't it, despite the Prodigy-ALC collab on "Big Dog," which, honestly, would've been better without Lil' Wayne. Similarly, Snoop on "Back Again" ... Snoop's got a younger cousin (Boldy James) who'd have fit better and needed the exposure more than the retired rapper turned A&R. The standout features on "Everybody Can't Go" are Stove and West, on a debut album packed with more guests than I anticipated for a title that emphasizes singularity. B.E.N.N.Y. is still stuck in his one-note biographical style, but with a rich and extensive discography, "Everybody Can't Go" feels like another diluted major label project from The Butcher. "Burden of Proof" never got a second play from me, and I doubt this one will either. B.E.N.N.Y. might want to let Nas handle the Hit-Boy tracks, because I'd rather listen to Tana Talk's packed with ALC beats than this album where the best moments have B.E.N.N.Y. teaming up with ALC.

Same goes for Snoop on "Back Again" ... Snoop's got a younger cousin (Boldy James) who'd have fit better on the track and could've used the exposure more than the retired rapper turned A&R. The standout features on "Everybody Can't Go" are Stove and West, on a debut album packed with more guest appearances than I anticipated for a title that emphasizes singularity. B.E.N.N.Y. is still stuck in his one-note storytelling routine, but with such a vast discography, "Everybody Can't Go" feels like another diluted major label project from The Butcher. "Burden of Proof" never got a second play from me, and I doubt this one will either. B.E.N.N.Y. might want to let Nas handle the Hit-Boy tracks, because I'd rather listen to Tana Talk's packed with ALC beats than this album where the best parts have B.E.N.N.Y. teaming up with ALC.

  This is another typical B.E.N.N.Y. album, but it's got some flaws: Firstly, I reckon this record should've wrapped up at "Griselda Express" (without Rick Hyde), proving that Griselda really relies on samples to create their best work. There's only one "Who Made The Sunshine," and this ain't it, even with the Prodigy-ALC collab on "Big Dog," which, honestly, would've been better without Lil' Wayne.

B.E.N.N.Y. is still stuck in his one-trick biographical bag, but with such a extensive and lengthy discography, "Everybody Cant Go" is another diluted major label release from The Butcher. "Burden of Proof" never got a second play from me, I doubt this one will either. B.E.N.N.Y. might wanna leave the Hit-Boy tracks to Nas, 'cause I'd rather listen to Tana Talk's loaded with ALC beats than this album that's best moments have B.E.N.N.Y. working with ALC.
