Benjamin Levin, more commonly known as Benny Blanco, surfaced in the music industry on an unforeseen trajectory. Despite his initial disinterest in pop music and aspirations of becoming a rapper, Blanco rapidly rose to prominence, securing a coveted spot atop the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.

By 2010, at the youthful age of 22, this prolific songwriter and producer had already etched an indelible mark on the music scene, contributing to chart-topping singles like Ke$ha’s “TiK ToK,” Britney Spears’ “Circus,” and Katy Perry’s “I Kissed a Girl.” His musical repertoire continued to expand, with notable collaborations with Selena Gomez, commencing with “Same Old Love” and “Kill Em With Kindness” in 2015, and most recently, “Single Soon” in 2023.
