Tristate Gates & Benny The Butcher put on for the Empire State on their new collaboration.
For Griselda, it's been a fantastic year, meaning that their characteristics have certainly skyrocketed. Benny The Butcher has shown clear signs of achieving some kind of commercial success, even as an artist known for sharp bars over gritty boom-bap development in New York.
That being said, his presence was necessary on the single from Tristate Gates, “NY Native.” Tristate and Benny The Butcher delivers a grimey New York bar-heavy record taking it back to their stomping grounds, paying homage from the corners to the dreams of dope boy riches.
“NY Native” is from the brand new project by Tristate Gates, Streets Held Me Back, which fell over the weekend. Stacked with 10 songs, it includes Eto, Rigz, and Rob Gates appearances as well.
Lyrics Snippet
Feds had a press conference and said they cleaned us off the street
How is that true? When I'm still sellin' verses like capsules
She helped me count the bread, she into that too
I'm not a rap dude, naw, I'm the cat who
Made magic with crack spoons and kitchens smaller than bathrooms
