Manuel E. García (born June 23, 1996, in Coahuila, Mexico), is known as Benbanksdarealgoat, an artist raised in San Antonio, Texas. It features the remix of “Flexing” a song by Blake. “I felt that doing this song would make me a better artist, as no artist in San Antonio, Texas had ever done a remix of this song,” Benbanksdarealgoat explained.
Manuel E. García, from now on Benbanksdarealgoat, started rapping at the age of 17. The music of Lil Wayne, The Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur helped him find his own style, in which he brings a mixture of English and sometimes Spanish because of his roots. “I feel like they’re the best at the rap game up to this era and what made me the rapper I am today” Benbanksdarealgoat.
What inspires me the most, is the feeling of turning “nothing” into “something with rhythm”, is what motivates me to continue. Which makes me get up and write more and release more music. What sets me apart a lot from other musicians, my style is a mix of English, but I always use a little Spanish in some words, you know, I exalt my music, I always like to add sound effects, I say what happens in the world I publish, what people like to hear. I like to interact with my fans
