Monty C. Benjamin goes for gusto on "Sixty Before Six"

Monty C. Benjamin transplants his frustration on wax as he drops the visuals for his song "Sixty Before Six". A piano driven track laced with gritty drums sees the young emcee display some verbal calisthenics and then some.  The song is devoid of a hook and it's straight bars upon bars for three minutes long

"…All I know is rapping is therapeutic, making this music is the only thing I see myself doing, F**k a 401k if it ain't coming through music, if you feel like I do that normal jobs is eschewing…" he vents over a soulful, somewhat somber backdrop. The visuals are really simple and just show the emcee on the metro kicking the knowledge as he makes his way to the apex.

Dale James Montgomery III, better known by his stage name as Monty C. Benjamin is an American hip hop recording artist from Cincinnati, OH, he began putting his charisma and presence to good use rapping at the early age of 12, taking his talents everywhere in the city from battle raps to talent shows. Monty has shared the stage with many talented acts including Jeremih, Young Jeezy, Shawnna, Rasheeda, Machine Gun Kelly, Kirko Bangz, King Chip,21 Pilots, Rockie Fresh, Beanie Sigel & Hi-Tek and more. 

"Sixty Before Six" is taken from his upcoming album 'In. Confidence' which will be out on 12.28.17
