BENI

BENI, the Finnish rapper and songwriter born Benjamin Öling, has been making waves in Scandinavia's hip-hop scene with his raw, introspective style and genre-blending beats. Hailing from Helsinki, this Epelipsy collective member became known for his candid lyrics about mental health struggles and societal observations, often delivered through a mix of trap influences and icy Nordic flows. His recent tracks like the gritty "BLOKILTA KLUBILLE" and vulnerable "YKSIN" showcase his range, bouncing between club-ready bangers and deeply personal storytelling. While keeping a relatively low public profile, BENI's authentic approach and collaborations with Finnish artists like Kube and Gasellit have solidified his place in the country's rap landscape. His 2023 releases like "Kokomustissa" and "OH SHIT!" continue to push his signature blend of melancholic melodies and punchy streetwise delivery.
