It’s no surprise when Artists cover popular singles, but Beniton made Rihanna’s “Work” his own with a unique remix. Dubbed his “Instamix“, Beniton flipped some of Riri’s lyrics and lashed at those who live for mix up, men who fail at loving their women, and lazy people. I can’t lie, this is a pretty dope take on the hit single. First premiered via Instagram and Snapchat, check out the track below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
