The Plugs I Met

Produced by The Alchemist, Beat Butcha, Daringer, and DJ Shay, the EP features guest appearances from Black Thought, 38 Spesh, Jadakiss, RJ Payne, Conway the Machine, Pusha T and India.

The EP was announced along with the release of its lead single, "18 Wheeler", featuring Pusha T, on June 13, 2021.

Grant Jones of RapReviews praised the EP, calling it "a jolt in the arm to anybody that gave up on mafioso rap.

"[1] Riley Wallace of HipHopDX wrote: "a concise (at seven-songs), yet meticulously crafted work of art that not only manages to further illustrate what a problem he is with the bars but—for longtime fans—delivers a guest list you’d expect for an artist affiliated with Shady.

"[4] Andrew Sacher of BrooklynVegan included the EP in his "30 Best Rap and R&B Albums of 2019" list, stating that "Benny's formula never really changes—vicious, dead-eyed raps delivered over eerie, lurching beats (provided on Plugs by Alchemist, in-house Griselda producer Daringer, and DJ Shay)—but his quality level is remarkably consistent and Plugs may be the most convincing case for Benny's vitality yet.
