"I've been privileged with being able to follow good ol' Benjiman for quite sometime, after being introduced to his music by a roommate a few years back. I first saw him live with Kutless and Falling Up, back when Kutless was finishing up their first tour and Falling Up had only begun to record their first album. Back then, I thought he was good.



And now he's moved on from good to pure awesome with his first full-length album Activate. Mixing a treasure trove of hard-hitting musical styles, fun-yet-deep lyrics, and a big heart, Benjiman has set himself up to... well... rock. And rap.



And he does both extremely well. Quite frankly, this is the kind of album that many bands and artists strive for, and usually fail to achieve on the first try."
