Benny The Butcher says J. Cole's best feature is still on "Johnny P's Caddy."

Benny The Butcher says that his favorite J. Cole feature is the one he contributed to his song, "Johnny P's Caddy," off of Tana Talk 4. Speaking with HipHopDX at the 2023 BET Hip Hop Awards, Benny picked his own song for the question. The topic arrises as Cole has been receiving acclaim for his contribution to Lil Yachty’s “The Secret Recipe.”

“Honestly, ‘Johnny P’s Caddy,’ I have to rank it at the top,” Benny told the outlet. “Ya’ll know why. He’s on there with another spitter. I don’t know bro, I gotta go check that [Yachty] song out. I was listening to it the other day. I’ma listen to it better but, I think 'Johnny P’s Caddy,' Cole verse still got the best title.”
