Benny The Butcher has announced he is officially off the market after putting a ring on his longtime girlfriend, India.
On Saturday (August 5) the rapper took to Twitter where he shared the big news while paying homage to his stomping grounds. “Real east side dope boy…I married a project princess…” he began. “me and India officially MARRIED.”

The announcement was met with an outpouring of support from fans who flocked to the comment section to show their love.
“Congrats. Live yall life just you two ignore the worldly ways,” wrote one Twitter user. “Congrats brother. May your union be truly blessed [praying hands emoji],” commented another.
Though unclear about the specifics, such as when the nuptials took place, Benny’s move to commit long-term is certainly a change in pace considering remarks he made in 2022, in which he suggested a man isn’t chasing marriage but money.
“90% of women goal is marriage in life, or they not complete unless they’re in a relationship,” he wrote. “Meanwhile a man is chasing a BAG !!! Thts his goal/objective/life purpose.”
The rapper has much to celebrate these days as word has it his upcoming project — though delayed — is coming along nicely.
Earlier this week, Hit-Boy shared a few new details about Benny The Butcher’s upcoming project, Everybody Can’t Go, which he was recruited to produce.

“It was supposed to come in August but I think it’s getting pushed back,” the Grammy-winning beatmaker said during an appearance on the Elliott Wilson Experience posted on Wednesday (August 2). “I think I got like nine joints in there … something like that.”
Benny’s last full-length studio album, Tana Talk 4, was released in 2022. In April of this year, he announced his fourth LP with an August 11 release date, but that no longer seems to be the plan based on Hit-Boy’s comments.

Benny and Hit previously teamed up for their Burden of Proof joint effort in 2020 and have been teasing more heat since then. Their first collaborative album debuted at No. 27 on the Billboard 200 with about 19,000 equivalent album units sold in its first week.
The album was the first crossover between the two and features Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Big Sean and Dom Kennedy, among others.
