[shagreezz3]

[ismokegreentrees]

benefit was sighned by mc ren after he was discovered when he won a mc battle with like 300 people in it

[wukillalogic]

where did you learn that ?

[ismokegreentrees]

go to wikipedia.. its a biography site

[wukillalogic]

are you serious?! they finally made one on him? ive been looking for it forever. Thanks!

[ismokegreentrees]

The Fat Boys Are Back. That point in his life would begin a never ending fascination with Hip Hop.

As Benefit grew, so did his appreciation for creativity and culture. Moving to different cities, and attending a number of extremely different schools planted a deep seeded understanding of diversity in his young mind.

While he matured, life threw many harsh realities in his path. Forever curious, he learned quickly from the abandonment, loss, and death that followed him.

[ismokegreentrees]

When Chuck D heard Benefit's entry he immediately told his manager he knew Benefit's was by far the best. When the contest ended and the votes were all counted, it wasn't even close. Benefit had won the $5000 by thousands of votes.

He used his prize money to begin building his professional studio, and further his music, but the promotion the contest gave him was much more valuable than the $5000.

[wukillalogic]

oh alright. already read that bio but thanks anyway!

[Free411]

dude why the fuck are you copyin and pastin shit off of sites and axtin like you wrote? cuz i read this description of Benefit on a website

[wukillalogic]

i couldnt find it on wikipedia where excactly is it?

[ismokegreentrees]

Benefit was born up North but has moved over 22 times in his 22 years living. For the latter majority of his life he's lived in Florida, where he currently attends a University. Throughout his unstable childhood he found himself always inspired by music. In 1986 for Christmas he received a boom box, and the two tapes Run DMC - Raising Hell, and The Fat Boys

[ismokegreentrees]

he began entering biweekly battles at "The Landz" where he would go on to be the consistent undefeated champion of every contest. It was suddenly clear that people were really feeling what he was creating. His style and sense of reality gave people what was lacking in the poppy fantasized rap they saw on TV.

[ismokegreentrees]

As Benefit finished high school and began college, he started writing, producing, and recording songs in his spare time. All of this was done using a $5 mic, and a $12 soundcard. This collection of work would unexpectedly catapult his name and ideas into the culture he loved, almost over night.

[ismokegreentrees]

Chuck D sponsored a contest where an emcee would make a track expressing their support for Napster and free information trade. The power was given to the people, and they were able to vote for the winner, who would then receive $5000. More than 800 emcees entered the contest, including Benefit

[JayGee7]

[Pmonks]

Anyone know who makes this dudes beats?? he make his own?? they all tite

[fuccyoudis2o9]

He makes his own beats.

[sweettechnice]

proceed with caution till this day has been probably the most skilled lyrical masterpiece I have ever listened to. I have compared that song and lyrics to other gifted Mc's songs and that song stands alone.

[2high4this]

yeah but my enemy is better than all those songs

[fuccyoudis2o9]

Yeah, and Benefit was only 15 years old when he wrote those songs.

[relier]

He sounds like necro. pretty dope though, benifit got a track with eminem thats hella tight cant find it.

[WhatsaSpeedLimit]

Necro sucks.

[2high4this]

watt

necros the shit

[ezeedee]

wtf? sounds like necro?

not many people can touch benefit as far as lyrics go.

[CWyze23]

I think it's a remix to an original eminem song I forgot the song too

[imcpain]

so sick yo

[mexico91]

haha this song is so down

as my verse disperses the worst curses a person hurts worst than the first virgens privacy purse burstin (best part of the song)

[soyasauce247]

Proceed with Caution is also the fkin dopest track.

Benefit is def. in my top 5 emcees, he would be the greatest of all time if he dropped a little more.

But definitely, the greatest emcee I've witnessed.

[auboholick]

There aren't enough people watching this. B.E.N.E.F.I.T. should rule the fuckin world.

[rickjames740]
