Benjamin The Kid is a music producer and artist of Ghanaian descent.Born Benjamin Akwesi Brakoh on the 9th of July,1995,in Accra-Ghana,he had his primary education at St.Bernadette Soubirous School in the city of Dansoman where he grew up and has lived all his life.He continued his secondary education at Akosombo International School where he started off as a dancer but in his last year,found out he was made to make music after reading the book "The Purpose Driven Life". He believed that music was the way Jesus wanted him to preach the gospel and thus be his ministry.Immediately after Senior High School,he decided not to further his education and he started getting into production by downloading FL studio on his brother's laptop and teaching himself how to use it.The fast song he ever recorded was with his brother's laptop mic in FL studio and he called it one night freestyle and he never looked back from then.From saving lunch money just to book studio time,to jumping from place to place just so people could hear him spit,Benjamin The Kid was determined to make a mark.He recorded his first official demo with Danny Beatz,a famous Ghanaian producer and it was titled it's you.He co-built his first studio with a few friends and joined their label "Narrow Road Records" a Christian Urban Gospel Rap label at 19.Released His first mixtape ,"KidVentures" comprising of 8 tracks at the same age.From there he worked at Goodie Goodie Music Studios in Kasoa,Ghana,then at Phusion Studios at Atico,in Accra.Fast forward Benjamin The Kid stopped believing in Jesus,(which got him into music in the first place) so the trajectory of his music changed and in his own words "I can't make music about something I don't believe in".Somehow he has managed to stay relevant in his circles despite his switch.He plans to release his debut Extended Play(EP) project next year,a rap project,although his recent fans have been used to him singing lately.
