Drego & Beno — Sorry We Was Trapping (TF Entertainment \ EMPIRE)

The idea of Drego & Beno’s comeback promised much but fails to deliver anything on a level of their early albums. Since their last tape in 2019, the Michigan duo moved to California, Drego started his solo career and a reunion seemed unlikely.

Drego & Beno’s first mixtape, 2018’s Sorry for the Get Off, was good enough to establish them almost immediately as Detroit’s best rap duo. And until Rio Da Yung Og and RMC Mike hit the scene, Drego & Beno carried that title. In their songs they made goofy jokes, boasted of coke deals, traded bars like investors trade assets and wrote songs that were fun and catchy. Drego was a nominal leader of the duo, he also produced a few tracks, but it was working in tandem that distinguished their sound and delivery.

In 2021 Drego dropped two tapes, Krazy Man and The Red Print, which cast him in a different light. Longer, carefully crafted songs, with more serious and even socially conscious topics (to the degree possible with the artists as unserious as Drego). More important is that a lack of his sparring partner didn’t diminished the quality of the tracks.

But when the pair got back together again, the result was just short of a disappointment. Sorry We Was Trapping is a quickie between lovers when there is no chemistry anymore. Beno is still good at goofing around with silly jokes like “Put his ass up on the wall, yeah, just like Mona Lisa” or “So many legs hangin' off thе Drac', it look like a centipede” but apart from occasional punchy lines and hooks the tape has little to show. Drego even steps back in the shadow here letting Beno run it, and this might be the reason why Sorry We Was Trapping is so chaotic. Compared to Drego’s brick solid albums, this one is a mess two kids made during an hour session in the studio. On “Rta” they rap: “Hundred thousand stacked in all dubs, it look like a midget \ It won't take me long, give me five minutes in your kitchen.” It seems like they “cook” their songs in the same speedy manner.

A first few cuts on Sorry We Was Trapping are still fun to listen to but the second half is a damn mess. And they should be sorry about THAT.
