Synopsis

This episode is Omar's moms favorite, and I'm sure it will be some of y'alls Benjamin Lerner, the Great-grandson of Irving Berlin (composer of such iconic tunes as “God Bless America” and “White Christmas”), is a Vermont-based Composer, Writer, and Recovery Advocate. Benjamin started his musical career as a classical piano prodigy. By his early twenties, he was an IV heroin and crack cocaine addict. Now sober since June 13, 2016, he journals his journey in addiction and sobriety in his all new piano-raps, which combine classical piano and rap. Benjamin credits his continued success in recovery to his ability to express his emotions relating to his struggle through word and song.  His debut album, CLEAN, was released in February 2020. It was produced at Old Mill Road Recording in East Arlington, Vermont. Benjamin is a great dude, we get to know a little more of his story and the influences as well as creative vision for his music. Hope You enjoy and voice for Benjamin Lerner at the grammy's! To
