I stared listening to Benjah when I was 12. I’ll be 24 next month. I think after a while I fell away from listening to his music as I got older getting busy with life. Here recently I started back listening again, following him on Facebook, and listening to him on Facebook lives. Sort of just hanging out with the guy lol maybe making a comment here and there or just letting my baby girl (who’s almost five months now) watch him with me. I love music, I love writing, and poetry was always a way for me to release how I was feeling during the different seasons in my life. I know singing and writing are my gifts from God, and I’ve struggled on how or where those things come to play in my life. The plan God has for me hasn’t fully come to me yet. I’m still searching and seeking God. I’ve battled with anxiety and depression growing up, but I was in an era where I felt like nobody talked about mental health. Or how to really look out for those things to take care of yourself and get help. Last year I got married and was at a point where I asked a doctor for something to help with the sickness I used to feel when anxiety arose in my life.. which was only situational. Little did I know the anxiety and depression I struggled with had everything to do with what I was doing in my life. I was always shy but as the sin in my life got greater so did the anxiety and depression. I fell away from God quite a bit.. but I’ve always came back cause I know I’m nothing without God. Being a mother has changed me in so many ways. I no longer feel depressed or have anxiety. Praise God! I feel that God is preparing me and moving me in my life to do the things that he has called me to do. Even though I don’t know what those things are yet, I fully understand that he has to be first. He has to be at the top for anything else to come into play. So that’s where I’m at. I’m just Waiting on God to show me where I belong, and how he’ll use me for his glory alone. God is definitely clearing out the bad in my life and showing me daily the things I need to work on. I feel at peace and I’m feeling more and more ready for the things to come that God has in store for me. I really relate to Benjah here in this interview. I’ve always been a fan and rekindling the spark with his music again has been good for me. I just relate in many ways to how he feels and how he speaks right here. Here I am just praying for my life and my daughter and my future. I got married to someone who isn’t who they say they are. We aren’t equally yoked and boy have I learned what that truly means and how it effects everything. I’m praying for favor in my life and for God’s will over all. The purpose I have has everything to do with my daughter (Rosalee) right now. Being a mother has truly changed me in so many ways, and it has brought back so much joy and peace into my life. God is good, and man I don’t think I’ll ever stop serving and living for God. Loved this interview ❤️ and felt like sharing. God bless y’all 🤗.
I found Benjah today … I seen a video on Facebook. Which lead me to add him on Spotify and then I had a moment when I needed something to watch and for some reason… I searched on RUclips specifically for an interview bc I wanted to hear more from him. I’m glad I did . Bc I found this .
Wow so true I've been walking with GOD for about over 2 years now and i still feel lost my thoughts tell me different not good thoughts either and i like what you said benjah but we need to humble ourselves stand strong and never forget what GOD does for us through his son JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD AND SAVIOR 🙏 keep pushing my brother benjah
Amen. What we want in life for ourselves is not exactly what God wants for us, so if we put Him first and always acknowledge that all the blessings we have are from Him. Many people want success and money, but their greed of high status and pride will cause them to stumble and forget where God brought them out of. Stay humble and know it's God's way or the highway. God bless always!!
Speak to yourself instead of listening, I love that. Benjah your my favorite artist!! I can listen to you anytime anywhere and it's friendly for my kids. I think the first song I heard of urs was sail away with vana I've been hooked since !!
I love this interview, bless up gentlemen! If the voice in your head makes you feel bad, it's not the truth. Create thoughts that make you feel good. I am that I am. One love!
I came across your music today, my life is a mess right now and I too am broken. Listening to this interview touched me, I too am a sinner but I try my best to be humble and a good person in general. Good luck in all your endeavors your such a talented man
This was a great interview. I’ve seen and listened to many wise conversations and sermons etc, but I can’t recall much conversation or discussion on our thoughts in our head like that. Really great talk
The part that I received from this video is what Benjah said stop listening to yourself and start talking to yourself like declaring Gods words over your life and appropriating Gods words ...Thats so true because the battlefield is in the mind were its always attacked thats why God saids renew your mind ...Benjah thats 🔥🔥🔥
Hey Benjah, you have a fan from STL Missouri. Love your vibe. I’ve been following for awhile. Love your Reggae sound moreso than the Rap/Hip Hop but it sounds good together. I think you’ll have a great audience if you keep it fused. You’re unique, just keep it up and people will take notice. I love what you said about Brokeness is Beautiful because for a long time I’ve searched for my purpose and when it doesn’t ever seem to come together it can leave you feeling really lost and a few years ago God gave me the word that I was “Beautiful beyond my brokeness”. I almost got it tatted but decided not to. Glad to see you still on the scene. Haven’t heard anything for awhile, will have to checkout the new Album.
Love Love your music :) Dopest music everness! special, dope and unique we are called to reach all people and be a light and your doing it in a dope way with amazing music so awesome!
Man Benja I don't even know where to start.. but your music has been such a huge inspiration to me it speaks volumes! I started listening about 11 years ago an haven't stopped. If there is a way I can reach out to you I wish to find out. Much love man hope one day I can hear from you
TL;DR Stop believing the lies of the enemy. 25:49 "the industry" is demonically controlled, don't worry or concern your business mind with what "the industry" wants or doesn't want. 12 Inches of Snow, a Canadian rapper, did rap with reggae back in the 90s! More currently, in 2018 regarding rap and reggae, you can hear the secular rapper Royce da 5'9 doing an interesting song that reminds me of the 90s in his song "Caterpillar" ruclips.net/video/dARAN1z2KqY/видео.html don't believe the lies of the enemy that "the industry" doesn't want it, forget the industry, because the fact is behind your back they are putting out secular music, with what they don't let you put out.
Let me explain something anybody could get a sheet of paper type up whatever whatever false and phony allegations and statements that you guys choose to and print it up with some black ink but what matters the most and what has all right and authority at the end of the day is the pen and the highlight of a marker that's the real way to get your work done
Truth be told when I hit you up that night man I had to get high as hell because I was scared and nervous there's only a few people in this world one person in this world that will scare that s*** out of me well he used to until I got used to his ass that's my father remember he is but I'm going to Peter and one and you it's not that I don't believe and I never didn't believe that you weren't alive it's just I can't go that way they got a restraining order on me even though I hold the authority these m************ will probably try to shoot me or something if I even walk that way
Remember if I had a box to take my Jesus out of and put the devil in I put them in and stop and stop them and never take the devil back out again news flash
One even more a little bit study my mother is married because I consider my Grandma Mary that's my mom and I guess Lord behold rather you guys want to believe it or not yes I am Jesus Christ is pumpkin the president is Jesus Queen Elizabeth is Elizabeth Genesis is the beginning and the end Ezekiel and Oscar and Bobby and Julius are the kings of the world so there you go guys and the Sun is my brother and the Moon is my sister Hannah
I just recently discovered Benjah. I love all of your work. God Bless You

Humbling interview.
This is why you are so relatable, amen that the hard times are the highlights.
Respect as a long time fan.
I needed to hear this interview tonight. Definitely spoke to me
Amen. What we want in life for ourselves is not exactly what God wants for us, so if we put Him first and always acknowledge that all the blessings we have are from Him.

Perla Franco God bless you wherever you are!
Jesus loves you, He wants to have a relationship with you.
A life with Jesus is so much full of strength and peace.
Enjoyed this interview! Deeper look into Benjah the person and not just the artist. Benjah is one of my favs! Great job!
This was a great interview. I’ve seen and listened to many wise conversations and sermons etc, but I can’t recall much conversation or discussion on our thoughts in our head like that. Really great talk
Benjah your a beautiful man!
The song Purpose is what's getting through my addiction I play it everyday and sometimes anywhere from 4 to a dozen times a day ❤
Thank you Benjah! Such an encouraging interview. Thank you!

So he produced practically all of his work? If so, that's really cool
CYGUY29 Not at all.
Truth be told when I hit you up that night man I had to get high as hell because I was scared and nervous there's only a few people in this world one person in this world that will scare that s*** out of me well he used to until I got used to his ass that's my father remember he is but I'm going to Peter and one and you it's not that I don't believe and I never didn't believe that you weren't alive it's just I can't go that way they got a restraining order on me even though I hold the authority these m************ will probably try to shoot me or something if I even walk that way
Amen! Agree go to the dark places!

It was not coincidence that you ending up hearing the Goodness of God! He wants to have a relationship with you! God loves you, He gave you life.
Ma)(alo ke Akua! Inspiring interview.
