#drego

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.
