P.R. 0 Comments

Your favorite rapper’s favorite rapper has made his or her way up to Sway in the Morning but never have they taken the sacred 5 Fingers of Death and doubled it just for fun. Hailing from Chicago, 20-year-old Taylor Bennett did just that and also premiered a written verse for his brother, Chance The Rapper, over his track “D.R.A.M. Sings Special”. Arriving to the show with confidence, Bennett had been up tweeting about killing the 5 fingers of death after selling out a show at SOB’s the night before. Jumping into his music Bennett speaks on his track “Straight From The Bottom”. Not usually the type to toss out singles he says the track was timely and needed to be heard. Developing a strong worth ethic from his father who has worked for Obama as well as the mayor of Chicago, Bennett says taking a year to perfect his project “Broad Shoulders” was well worth the wait. Placing his brother Chance The Rapper on a song for very first time he dives into his relationship with his older sibling. Drawing parallels from Jay Z and Kanye’s relationship Bennett says that he’s here to do things on his own referencing a line from Ye’s “Big Brother” about selling out a show at SOB’s then having to buy his way into Jay Z’s show at Madison Square Garden. He continues on about Chance as he breaks down how his verse on “Broad Shoulders” foreshadowed Chance being a father to a baby girl.

Taylor Bennett has created quite a buzz over the past six months. The 18-year-old recent high school graduate is the younger brother of Chance The Rapper, and has gone about carving out his own lane in the ever-increasing shadow of his big bro. Taylor has successfully created a brand unto himself while selling out three consecutive headlining shows in his hometown (twice at Reggie’s & once at Lincoln Hall). He just recently performed at the House of Blues, opening for Vic Mensa and Nas as part of an official after-party for the annual festival, “Lollapalooza.” Also, Taylor has supported YG & Curren$y’s sold out shows at Metro in Chicago this year. His project, Mainstream Music, released on May 4th is a talented, well-put-together project that spans several sounds and essentially did what Common attempted on Nobody’s Smiling before he had a chance to pull together different sides and sounds of Chicago. Having done tracks with King Louie, Lil Herb, Spenzo, Rockie Fresh and many more, Taylor is spreading his voice around the city and recently appeared on the cover of The Chicago Reader as one of the leaders of the next crop of young talent to come from the city. Expect to see him in a city near you this fall.
