# Benny Blanco

Benny Blanco, pseudonimo di Benjamin Levin (Reston, 8 marzo 1988), è un cantautore, rapper e produttore discografico statunitense.
Ha ricevuto il premio Hal David Starlight 2013 dalla Songwriters Hall of Fame. Ha vinto cinque volte il primario del Songwriter of the Year BMI ed ha trionfato nella categoria "Produttore dell'anno" agli iHeartRadio Music Awards 2017.
Come produttore e compositore, Blanco ha venduto oltre 100 milioni di copie in tutto il mondo grazie al suo lavoro con artisti come Avicii, Halsey, Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber, Maroon 5, Britney Spears, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Kesha, Sia, The Weeknd, Selena Gomez, Keith Urban, Tory Lanez, Wiz Khalifa, Kanye West, Juice Wrld Eminem e Khalid. È anche il fondatore di due etichette in collaborazione con Interscope Records, Mad Love Records e Friends Keep Secrets.
Nel luglio 2018, Blanco ha pubblicato la canzone Eastside, una collaborazione con Halsey e Khalid. Raggiunse il numero 9 della Billboard Hot 100, segnando la prima top 10 di Blanco come artista e la sua ventisettesima come autore, quantità che include sette numeri uno. Eastside è stato seguito da I Found You con Calvin Harris, Better to Lie con Jesse e Swae Lee, Roses con Juice Wrld e Brendon Urie, e culminato con l'uscita del suo primo album più tardi lo stesso anno.
