Why this name?
MY NAME BENOMNI CAME FROM A RHYME WHEN I DIDN'T HAVE A STAGE NAME..."BEN" FOR BENEVOLENT (TO BE OF A SPIRITUAL ESSENCE) THE "OMNI" PART FROM OMNIPOTENT WHICH MEANS TO HAVE A UNIVERSAL AURA OR PRESENCE TO YOURSELF...SO BENOMNI MEANS TO HAVE A SPIRITUAL UNIVERSAL PRESENCE TO YOURSELF...
Do you play live?
I DO LIVE SHOWS...FROM OPEN MICS TO PAID PERFORMANCES..IT FUELS MY ENERGY TO KEEP GOING IN SOME WAYS...IT IS A PURE OUTLET FOR WHATEVER IS WRONG AND RIGHT IN YOUR LIFE.... IT IS A GREAT WAY TO SHARE WHO YOU ARE ABD WHAT YOU BELIEVE WITH THOSE AROUND YOU... AND IT'S FUN
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I THINK THE INTERNET ALLOWED THE WORLD TO SEE HOW MUCH TALENT AND DIVERSITY THERE IS IN THE WORLD...NOT JUST MUSIC.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
OF COURSE. BUT IT WOULD HAVE TO BE THE RIGHT CONDITIONS AND I WOULD HAVE TO FEEL A SENSE OF LONGEVITY WITH THAT LABEL OR THE ABILTY TO CREATE MY OWN LONGEVITY FROM BEING MENTORED BY AN ESTABLISHED COMPANY...
Band History:
COMING SOON....
Your influences?
MY MUSICAL TASTE RANGE FROM BOB NESTA MARLEY TO ANITA BAKER TO LINKIN PARK TO STAIND TO PORTISHEAD AND RIGHT BACK TO MC LYTE AND RAKIM TO THE O'JAYS AND NINA SIMONE...AND I LOVE REGGAE CALYPSO AND SOCA MUSIC... I GREW UP ON IT...IF IT SOUNDS GOOD AND IS TRULY DIFFERENT AND NOT JUST SOUNDS THROWN TOGETHER IM GOING TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE...
Favorite spot?
I AM A NATIVE NEW YORKER...BORN AND BRED IN QUEENS RIGHT BY LaGUARDIA AIRPORT...EAST ELMHURST AND JACKSON HEIGHTS... I LOVE SOUTH CAROLINA TOO...ORANGEBURG, COLUMBIA AND OF COURSE VANCE COUNTY WHERE MY DAWGS ARE AT
Equipment used:
THE MIC; THE BOOTH; THE TRACK...... AND I GOT A SPECIAL SECRET WEAPON FOR SPECIAL OCCASSIONS(YA'LL DON'T GOT THIS) WELL MAYBE
Anything else...?
NEVER LET ANYONE TELL YOU CAN'T DO SOMETHING...IF IT IS IN YOUR HEART AND SOUL...GOD PUT IT THERE FOR A REASON...ONE PERSON CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE...WHETHER IT IS CHANGING THE WHOLE WORLD OR THE LIFE OF THE PERSON WHO CAN DO THAT FEAT... LIVE YOUR LIFE AND YOU WILL SUCCEED!
