Popular musician Daniel Benson, nicknamed Bnxn, claimed that the heartbreak he was going through at the time served as inspiration for his most recent album, “Sincerely, Benson.”
He admitted, “I was in love when I was working on this project,” in an interview with Nandi Madida on Apple Music’s Africa Now Radio. Because I had recently ended a relationship, I was in such heartbreak when I created this artwork. I am aware that I am to blame, but how can I sincerely apologize to someone if I won’t admit my fault and accept responsibility? The project was inspired by one of those concepts.
A conversation with fellow musician Burna Boy, according to Bnxn, is where the album’s name originated from.
When I had recently changed my name from Buju to Bnxn, I went out with Burna Boy. He advised me to personalize the name and place more focus on it while we were speaking. The name of my album was required, he continued. It must be included in the actual album, he insisted. Sell it while you’re here, you need to.
“He told me that, and it really remained with me, but it was weird because months later, he published his album under his own name, Love, Damini! One of the elements that led to the creation of the title was the need to emphasize and personalize my name so that others would be able to recognize me for who I am.
The singer noted that the album contained a lot of emotional content and was intended to uplift listeners. This music contains a lot of emotion, especially if you can relate, he stated. You still need to dance, feel happy, and have a wonderful time.
Songs like “Gwagwalada,” “Mukulu,” and “Right Energy” are included because of this. You get the impression that you are about to become engrossed in an emotionally charged project, but I also want you to feel happy. This project seems so ideal; it has all the elements.
