It took a sharp learning curve, blood, sweat and long hours wrecking the brain for signature bars for Benny The Butcher to get to a point in his rap career where he leads an album with the release of Timeless, a single featuring Lil Wayne and Big Sean.
The Hit-Boy-produced single is only a peak into whats to come when Burden of Proof drops in the near future.
Lil Wayne reclaims ‘Best Rapper Alive’ title on Timeless
Benny snuck the teaser to this record out about a month ago and the talk was all about Wayne’s verse. The Young Money founder completely went off the rails with a verse packed with hot coals of double entendres and punchlines.
First of all, killing careers on Career Day is absolutely bonkers. Secondly, cutting the hands off the clock to prove you’re timeless has to be the best play on words we have heard in recent times.
There aren’t enough words to substantiate our point about Lil Wayne’s verse on Timeless. Sean, who is still coming off the high of releasing Detroit 2 was stellar, as usual.
For the Detroit native, it is expected that he will most probably body a record. His verse was above par but for Wayne, who has received a lot of criticism for his perceived lack of enthuse in making the music that made him a rap god, this feature has settled any and all uncertainty about his god-given talents.

Benny’s untethered focus and manifestation is something to watch and if Timeless is the first record out of the chamber, we can only be left to imagine what the rest of Burden of Proof sounds like.
Timeless is out and available at every major digital streaming platform. We have sourced the single from Benny’s YouTube page and you can stream the song below:
