Ben Bacardi: Rapper With A New York Soul

Rising superstar Ben Bacardi a Queens New York native now based in Long Island rhymes with an urban passion. He talks about his experiences, he talks about life, and he talks about his family. Each of his rhymes comes from the heart. The Hip Hop artist was recently signed to Tribeca Records (also a New York-based label). Ben Bacardi’s debut Tribeca Records single “Life Again” will be released on Tuesday, February 18, 2025 and features Pelle and H.

Ben takes his influences from Jay Z, Snoop Dogg, Wu-Tang, Biggie Smalls, Mobb Deep, and a host of others. Occasionally suffering from depression and anxiety, Ben discovered that when he did music his symptoms subsided. He figured his music sounded good so why not pursue this adventure? Thus, his first EP entitled “Prescription to Rap” is a gritty, hard-hitting manifesto of lyrics and beats New York City is known for it and it’s inspired by the sounds of the ’60s and ’80s with influences from artists including Queen, Madonna, Beck, and Duran Duran. With over 100 recorded songs, some featuring Queens legends Pelle, Royal Flush, and Boots on vocals, Ben hopes that even a small few will make the cut for the world to celebrate.

His heart, mind, and soul are in this for keeps. On the side he enjoys engaging in his thriving appraisal business, however, he has begun to concentrate and focus on his singing career while dedicating his life to his family and his two children. “Life Again” is a powerful and hard-driving rap with an urban beat and meaningful lyrics.” But that’s only the beginning for Ben. Watch him quickly become a force to talk about….
