Story behind the song
Gifted to the hip-hop industry in 1999, Fredrick Terry also known as Benz is Jacksona019s leading rap icon. Benz was born in Jackson, Mississippi on October 13th. The name Benz was coined by one of his friends who noticed his flashy style and referred to him as a 500 Mercedes Benz, unknowingly speaking a prophetic word into his life, when telling him to a01Cdo it biga01D. He never had aspirations of becoming a rap superstar however he was a natural, born with the talent. Benz initially began the art of rapping when he heard his homeboys doing it and felt like he could do it too, but better. a01CThe Queen Boyza01D was formed; consisting of himself and Bra also known as da Block Bear. Finances were there from the street life he was living, so he invested in himself and took it to the extreme. The vision, also there, he would be the epitome of rappers amongst his peers and those who were already made. The Queen Boyz dropped their first cd in 2000 titled a01CPack Pushersa01D and sold over 10000 copies. The album had a hit single called a01CHata Blockaza01D which won song of the year. Shortly after the dropping of the first album they signed a label deal with Interscope Records. In 2001, Benz dropped a mixtape, titled a01C1 Life 1 Love Allstara01D. Since Interscope never published the duo, they got out of the deal and went back to being independent. In 2003, Benz along with Skrilla Boy was featured on one of the hottest songs in Mississippi called, a01CSay It to My Facea01D. The song belonged to long time friend Boo da Boss Playa aka Rossini (now signed to CTE), which received over 100 spins a day independently. In 2005, the Queen Boyz dropped another album called a01CGet Cha Weight Upa01D it sold over 7500 copies which won them group of the year. In 2007, Benz dropped his first solo album along with dvd named a01CMeet da Mana01D that sold approximately 12000 units. The album had two singles that did well on the radio, a01CGetting Moneya01D and a01CDa Wait is Ovaa01D. In 2008, he had a a01Cstreetbangera01D called, a01CShe a Freaka01D. He also won artist of the year, and dropped a mixtape called a01CIn a League of My Owna01D.

Currently, Benz is working on 3 new projects, a01CDa Relief Plana01D, a01CTax Seasona01D, and a01CDinner Timea01D. The artista019s goals however, do not plateau at hip-hop. His gifts, goals, and ambition extend into the business world. Innate to writing he plans to further his career in entertainment such as plays and movies. From the hood to fortune and fame Benz aka Da Man may be looked upon as arrogant, as seen and heard in the video he has called a01CArroganta01D. However, he leaves his fans with the advice to a01Cfollow your heart and dona019t believe nothing (anyone) tell(s) youa01D, a01Cbe up grinding when others sleepa01D, and a01Cgive it your all baby and if you fail you cana019t be mada01D.
