Briggy Benz ready to make mark on the industry

Red Square-Zen Inc recording artiste Briggy Benz, a protégé of internationally recognised dancehall deejay Spargga Benz, is ready to make his own mark in the music industry.

His new release via Notnice Records, Get Gyal Easy, has been getting a lot of airplay over the summer. Not only is Briggy gaining respect on-air but also in the streets with popular discjocks such as Boom Boom and Harry Hype.

The music video for the track is hot and steamy; every frame is covered with sexily clad females. Director credit goes to 'Trouble', who shot the high-quality 4K film at locations in Manhattan and Queens, New York.

Get Gyal Easy is a modern 'gallis' anthem and the video portrays the same dynamic. According to Briggy: "It tells the story of a confident, less of an egoistic dude, who works hard but plays even harder. In return, this allows him to effortlessly attract any female of his choice."

It's been a long road for Briggy to reach where he is today. He explained: "It has been a test and a testament from the streets of Dunkirk to the lunch tables of KC and Camperdown. I can explain the cliché of the ghetto without being caught up with bad influences, plus I've had a great mentor and influence in Spragga Benz, which helped to shape my skills and knowledge."

Briggy Benz made his debut back in 1999 at King Jammy's recording studio, with the Ward 21-produced, Gi We Dem. He grew up in the Kingston 16 community of McIntyre Villa. He later migrated to the United States where he started a family, yet continued to balance his life with the pursuit for success in music.
