Actor, Model & Singer/Songwriter Benjamin Hey! releases pandemic pop anthem..."Corona Crazy"

BENJAMIN HEY!

RELEASES NEW SINGLE…."CORONA CRAZY"

Entertainer Benjamin Hey! has just released his latest single Corona Crazy on #newmusicmonday.


Inspired by his frustration with Covid19, Corona Crazy is an '80 inspired pop song that gives a description to feelings of emotional instability.

Corona Crazy is available for streaming on Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, Amazon, Deezer and most music platforms internationally.

Benjamin Hey! is an actor/singer/songwriter/model based in New York City. His passion for music took him to Los Angeles where he followed long time collaborator and well known L.A. based producer Jonny On The Rocks (JOTR), who has worked with Prince and LL Cool J. He also co-produced Corona Crazy.

In 2018, Benjamin Hey! also had the honor of collaborating with Hollywood darling, Laverne Cox on her music debut, the Billboard Clubplay smash "Beat For The Gods"
He also got to co-star in Marvel's The Punisher episode Kandahar.

2019 had Benjamin emerge as a "bro-cialite," making rounds of events increasing his visibility and inspiring a new persona called "The Captain." One could catch Benjamin out and about in his signature airplane captain hat…. a look that has been captured on the red carpet by Getty Images & other sources..

2020 started off with a bang as Benjamin released a music video filmed in Paris, titled "Scene Of The Crime." That video led to further exposure and a chance meeting with a model scout. Upon his publicist's urging, Benjamin followed up and made his runway debut for Harlem Fashion Week @ New York Fashion Week 2020. The Captain wound up walking for not one...but three designers (Allan Virgo, Twisted World & Mario Miguelito)

While his plane is experiencing turbulence like most of the world, The Captain refuses to ground it...... even if he's going "Corona Crazy."

Write What You Know…..
Award-Winning Team To Film In New Jersey

So, what are you afraid of? This is the simple question being asked from the new upcoming series SCRAWL. Well, we can list many things we are afraid of but what about you? 

Lets take a look, SCRAWL tells the story of a struggling writer as he battles his insecurities, mental health, and inner demons as he desperately reaches for success. A stranger presents him with a dangerous opportunity to achieve fame and fortune. He makes a pact that may turn his dreams into realities. But what will this deal do to his nightmares? 

Insecurities, Mental health, Inner demons? Would you be scared? Fame alone would scare us fortune not so much. Making pacts with dreams, deals and nightmares? Reminds us of the classic "Oh God You Devil" with the late George Burns taking deals turning them into dreams with the cost of selling yourself to the devil himself! Yes, no thank you. They say Fear can only be kept hidden away for so long. Eventually, it finds a way to crawl out of the story and into your mind. We say If Scrawl crawls into your mind this could be a must watch. Looking forward to the release in 2021.
