The fear of failure often keeps talented and gifted people from chasing their dreams. Despite their potential for their passion, they are hindered from going all in, afraid that the road might not give them the success they picture for themselves. But rising artist Benjii Baby knows that the only way to succeed in the music industry is to be fearless. From the first day he picked up his pen and paper to write songs, the artist has continually pursued his passion and has not looked back ever since.
Benjii Baby is a thriving artist who is constantly putting one foot forward in the music landscape. He was born in New Jersey but was raised in Columbus, Ohio, after moving there with his family at a young age. The Ghanian music artist is continually leaving jaws dropped for his unique take on hip hop, R&B, and afro beats.
Benjii Baby generated a buzz in the music scene with his single “All We Need,” coupled with the release of its visually stunning music video. The single narrates the message of holding onto love, hope, and faith even amid the darkest times in one’s life. The artist wanted to emphasize that such values are the most important and will see anyone through the chaos.
As Benjii Baby amplified through his latest masterpiece, “Love is all we need. We should come together as one. Life is too short of downgrading anyone when we’re all the same. We are all human!”
“All We Need” is also Benjii Baby’s latest homage to the causes he stands for, such as equality among the races and justice. As an artist of Ghanian descent, Benjii Baby has seen how people of color or minority groups have faced various injustices over the past decades, despite being in these modern times. Hence, he feels a responsibility to continue pushing the message of peace and love through his music.
Furthermore, his equally worthy singles “Its Up,” “152,” “Okay Freestyle,” and more are also gaining traction in the digital space with tens of thousands of views on YouTube alone.
Having such a strong advocacy, paired with his undeniable talent, Benjii Baby has inspired many individuals across Ohio to also use their voices to impact others. “I used to play football, basketball, and track in high school, but my talents were overseen due to the fact that the coaches had their favorites. That’s when I then went off to college and picked up a pen and paper and never looked back ever since,” shared Benjii Baby.
While in college, Benjii Baby strived to become the best at what he knew was his calling. He worked on his music day in and day out, improving his sound along the way until he finally found his groove. During his freshman year in college, Benjii Baby stopped at nothing to grow his fanbase and began distributing CDs to every state he traveled to across the country. That marked the beginning of how his name spread, and it continues to do so today like wildfire.
Benjii Baby gained his bachelor’s degree at the University of Akron for Business Marketing and Sales Management, all while juggling his time to pursue his music career. Earlier this year, the artist was hailed as one of the top creators on the audio drop-in app Clubhouse, propelling his career and further attesting to his excellence as a music artist. Benjii Baby also began to spread his music digitally to Lyft riders and gamers on Xbox and Playstation. So far, the artist has sold out his first performance to over 300 people and further increased his influence in his community.Learn more about Benjii Baby on Instagram, YouTube, and Spotify.
