‘Trust Issues’ Still on iTunes Charts as Pittsburgh Artist Occupies Three Major Chart Positions at Once
Pittsburgh, PA — April 2026
| AMAZON HIP HOP BEST SELLERS | |

PITTSBURGH, PA — Showoff Gang recording artist Tjuan Benafactor continues to build momentum heading into the May 20 release of his forthcoming EP Strip Club Music (Stripperdom), landing two singles simultaneously on the Amazon Hip Hop Best Sellers chart. “Wolverine” featuring Jadakiss debuted at #82 while “Motion” charted at #83 — placing Benafactor in back-to-back positions on one of digital music’s most competitive sales charts.
“Wolverine” featuring Jadakiss — one of hip hop’s most respected lyricists and a Ruff Ryders legend — is a standalone single released on Showoff Gang / Empire Distribution. The collaboration pairs Benafactor’s Pittsburgh grit with Jadakiss’s New York pedigree for a record that resonates across both coasts. “Motion,” meanwhile, is a single from the upcoming Strip Club Music (Stripperdom) EP, giving fans a preview of what to expect when the full project arrives May 20.
The simultaneous dual charting represents a significant moment in Benafactor’s rollout strategy — two different records, serving two different purposes, both connecting with buyers at the same time. It is a rare achievement for any independent artist on a major chart.

The Amazon chart placements arrived while Benafactor’s music video for “Trust Issues” featuring Benzino was still charting on iTunes — making it three Benafactor records on major charts simultaneously. “Trust Issues” had reached #1 on the iTunes Hip Hop Music Video chart and #31 globally across all genres, covered by AllHipHop.com. His 2015 EP Credible Content climbed to #22 on the iTunes Global Hip Hop chart over a decade after its original release. “Giggity” reached #7 on the UK iTunes Hip Hop chart and #36 on the US iTunes Top 40 Hip Hop chart. “No Laccin” featuring Snoop Dogg and Bantana spent over 40 weeks on global digital radio charts.
Strip Club Music (Stripperdom) arrives May 20, 2026 on Showoff Gang / Empire Distribution. The release will be accompanied by the Stripperdom Tour aka The Goat Tour — a 10-city national tour launching May 20 at Sapphire 39 in Manhattan, headlined by S.I.M.O.N.E. and hosted by Benafactor.
