“What stands out isn’t just Benji’s versatility across different-era beats, but his knack for blending addictive repetition in the right places and breaking off flows into refreshing pockets.” – Complex

“Rappers To Watch In 2025…Benji Blue Bills recently took over the internet with his catchy hit ‘Aye Rage.’ It’s sure to carry him for the rest of the year and will have fans begging for more music.” – The Root
Fixtures in the new rap underground, Benji Blue Bills and BNYX® have never been afraid to experiment with their sound. Connecting for the first time on a collaborative tape, the rising ATL-via-DC rapper and the GRAMMY-nominated producer release Out The Blue. The new tape is home to the viral hit “Aye Rage!,” Benji and BNYX’s hit single (created with streamer YourRage), which started life as a spontaneous “Song Wars” collaboration on PlaqueBoyMax‘s stream, and grew into a sizable underground smash with over 10 million streams across platforms. Benji is an ideal guide through BNYX®’s azure-hued sonic world, grounding the producer’s flights of fancy with calm cadences and tight flows.

Out The Blue uses “Aye Rage!” as a launching pad for Benji and BNYX® to explore a variety of underground sounds. Songs like the floating, melodic “All The Way” and the chaotic “Taco Shells” stay in the Working On Dying sweet spot, with boosted 808s and dancing synth arpeggios. The ethereal “Feels CoreCore” and plugg-influenced “Right Key” demonstrates the pair’s facility with the underground’s softer sounds. Inspired by their connection in the studio, Benji and BNYX® venture even further afield into genres they have always admired, but have not yet had the occasion to try: “I Wonder” employs a lush soul sample, reminiscent of the beats favored by Benji’s 90s rap heroes, while recent single “Down Girl,” a collaboration with Argentine rap superstar Duki, draws from BNYX®’s Haitian heritage with a Kompa-inspired sound.
Along with the tape, Benji and BNYX® share the sci-fi video for tape highlight “Morgan.” Boosted by BNYX’s bouncy 808 bassline, “Morgan” is an instant-party starter, intended to soundtrack house parties and moshpits alike. Benji beckons baddies with reckless abandon, stacking blasé boasts and inciting pandemonium: “If I put that b*tch in Coco, turn her to a 5 star lady/Too much ice, it cause a meltdown, is you f*cking crazy?” he spits.
Directed by Jay Richardson, the video “Morgan” pays homage to the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers, parodying the campy kids action show with loving attention to detail. Benji leads a crew of masked warriors (as the Blue Ranger, naturally), taking orders from a disembodied BNYX® (as the inter-dimensional Zordon figure) and teaming up to fight a team of baddies from outer space. At the video’s end, Benji and his crew form a giant blue Megazord-like robot to vanquish the threat once and for all.

Available now on all digital platforms, Out The Blue releases later this year a limited run (500) of vinyl LPs, CDs, and an Out The Blue coffee table book featuring never-before-seen photos of Benji Blue Bills and BNYX®.

A fixture in the game with co-signs from heavy-hitters like LUCKI and Cole Bennett, Benji Blue Bills split time in his youth between Atlanta and Washington, DC, absorbing the sounds of both regions, and adding influences like A$AP Rocky. He caught the attention of the underground with his 2023 mixtape Campaign Blue, and was the subject of heavy industry chatter for his single “IM RIGHT HERE.” Benji kept the momentum going into 2024 with fan-favorite singles like “Santal 33” (10.5 million Spotify streams) and “Load Out” ft. Lazer Dim 700 and his project 500k Degrees. Benji earned viral attention with his “Underground Sound Cypher” (3.5 million Spotify streams), a standout on the popular internet platform’s compilation tape. The Cypher trended on TikTok for multiple weeks and earned positive mentions from tastemakers like Kai Cenat. Early this year, Complex recognized Benji Blue Bills as a 2025 Rapper to Watch.
With Out The Blue out now, Benji and BNYX are ready to set the underground ablaze. It’s a Blue world, and we’re all just living it.

Benji Blue Bills’ matter-of-fact raps that act as a delightful contrast to the playful, electronic elements in the beats he selects make him one of the more interesting rappers of today. Learning from hip-hop legends like A$AP Mob in his early days, he widened his network and took that knowledge back to Atlanta. The back-and-forth nature of his upbringing – bouncing between DC and The A – makes him an intriguing hybrid of styles. Spending his formative years in The District before relocating further South in his teens, you can hear elements of both places in his accent and musical delivery. Lucky for him, the two cities he calls home have been fostering some of the most inventive street music in the nation over the past decade.
Since he started, Benji sporadically released music and kept his name hot with big name associates but in 2023 he hit a creative stride. In October he released Campaign Blue, a sixteen-track mixtape where his gravelly voice is supported by chaotic, often otherworldly beats that sound like they’re fresh from a fantasy video game soundtrack. As we look to the future, Benji feels primed to make his mark as the face of a new, wildly creative batch of trap artists from the digital age.
