Benji. drops a soulful set of tracks with Spillage Village.

The supergroup of Spillage Village may be the most underrated of all of the newer collections of talent. EarthGang, JID, 6LACK, and more headline this assembling of all-stars. However, there is one newer member of the team, Benji. You might want to start getting used to hearing this guy's name because he possesses serious range. This is HNHH's first time covering this artist's solo material, so let us give you a quick rundown of who Benji. is. According to his Spotify profile, he was born Ian Benjamin Welch.

Benji. hails from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with music playing a major role in his earlier years. Over time, he became a self-taught musician, producer, artist, and live performer as well. A lot of his sound draws inspiration from soul and hip-hop, psych-rock as well as funk. We briefly mentioned that this is the first time we have talked about his solo work. But, Benji. did land on the "Bobby Boucher" single with Spillage Village.
