Music has a remarkable way of telling stories and bringing people from all walks of life together. This is especially true for Young Benny, whose discography captures an impressive range of moods and scenarios, from high-energy anthems to introspective ballads. His sound embodies his growth as an artist, reflecting the highs and lows of his personal journey.

Young Benny has always been drawn to music. He found a deep love for hip-hop since his childhood, beginning as early as elementary school.
“I’ve always liked rap,” he recalls. “Even back in elementary school, I was into it. Then in middle school, I kept at it, and in high school, I started trying to record.”
His early steps in recording took place through home setups. However, he took a short hiatus from music to pursue college football. Despite this, his path to a music career was shaped by years of athletic dedication, creativity, and a desire to tell a universal story through his sound.
“About five years ago, I realized this was something I wanted to do seriously,” he said. “I saw that I could actually pursue it.”
After finishing college football, he dove back into creating music. He described the shift from the two, saying “[Football] is objective. You score a touchdown, and people cheer. With music, it’s different. You might think you’ve made the best song ever, but someone else might not like it. That subjectiveness was something I had to get used to.”
His love for football and music is featured in the music video for his song “Let’s Link.” One of Young Benny’s favorite scenes from the video captures a dramatic aerial shot of the football field, filmed by his friend Highlife using a drone.
“The combination of the field, teammates, and unique aerial perspective created an unforgettable experience,” he says, reflecting on the nostalgic yet electrifying moment.
When it comes to his creative process, Young Benny makes sure that he’s in the zone.
“I usually start with a couple of glasses of wine, sit in my car, and play a beat,” he reveals.
Before entering the studio, he makes sure he has complete songs ready. He credits his producer and engineer for pushing him creatively.
“He helps me step out of my comfort zone while still staying true to my sound,” he says.
His music is versatile, reflecting different aspects of his personality.
“I like my space, I like to party, I like going on dates, I like being in love. My music reflects all those different parts of me,” he shares.
His track “Intoxicated” highlights this, touching on the theme of escaping life’s challenges through vices. The song resonates deeply with fans, with one listener during his listening party at Xperience Kitchen & Cocktails sharing how they connected to the track during a difficult period in their life.

In “Intoxicated,” Young Benny speaks about escaping life’s ups and downs by leaning on vices. The production sets the tone with dark trap elements, haunting piano loops, and guitar riffs, while his autotuned, melodic delivery perfectly portrays his feelings.
“I been pourin’ Chardonnay, it keeps me faded,” he delivers. “You don’t wanna know the things I contemplated/I don’t talk about it, s**t get complicated.”
As the song continues, he showcases his resilience, affirming that nothing or no one can take away his greatness. When it’s all said and done, the musician is “aiming for the triple crown”.
Young Benny is excited for fans to experience his latest sounds. His upcoming track “Let’s Ride,” which interpolates Usher‘s classic hit “U Don’t Have To Call” finds the artist dabbling in a different musical style. “I’ve never rapped over a vocal sample like that before,” he says. “It’s a fun track.”
Young Benny has valuable advice for those looking to break into the music industry, pushing them to take a chance on themselves.
“Lock in, strap up for the ride, and see it through. There will be dark times, ups and downs, but everything can change in the blink of an eye. Keep pushing forward.”
He also emphasizes the importance of having a trustworthy team.
“The industry isn’t always friendly. Surround yourself with people who have your back and make the right connections.”
As he continues to create timeless music, Young Benny remains focused on his ultimate goal: to connect with his audience, share his stories, and inspire others to believe in themselves. For him, the journey is just as important as the destination. Through his music, he’s proving that with passion, dedication, and a relentless drive, anything is possible.
