Spinabenz

Spinabenz emerged from the Jacksonville underground in 2021 as one of the rappers behind "Who I Smoke," a diss track that went viral with its vicious rhymes and deeply contrasting sample of Vanessa Carlton's pop hit "A Thousand Miles." Before his breakthrough, the native Floridian established himself during the tail end of the 2010s with the singles "Blue Hundreds" and "Stripper Fun," as well as a mixtape, King Leonidas. He teamed with Whoppa Wit Da Choppa for the 2020 tape KU Lyfe, and started the next year with a Yungeen Ace collaboration, "Sunday Service." Among solo singles that followed in early 2021, Spinabenz was also in on "Who I Smoke" with Ace, Whoppa, and FastMoney Goon. The track's video was uploaded to YouTube that March and within two months eclipsed 20 million views. The single was made available on streaming services in April. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi
